Metro Exodus
Execution · Practiced Mastery
Open-zone Metro entry trading tunnels for a cross-Russia survival journey.
Dangerous Golf leans Execution (Practiced Mastery); Metro Exodus leans Execution (Practiced Mastery).

A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
