Enemy AI runs simple fixed routines
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
Bosses are scripted.

Dark Void
Weapon upgrades and approach choice matter lightly
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
Few build systems.
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.
