Democracy 4Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Axis by axis
Execution0 vs 1
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.

Clicking policy sliders involves zero physical skill
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Turn-based; no dexterity gate
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Democracy 4
Voter blocs react by fixed simulation rules, not adaptation
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Enemy AI follows predictable rules
Variance3 vs 3
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Democracy 4
Random events and hidden voter thresholds inject mild uncertainty
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Hit chances are mostly deterministic percentages
Optimization8 vs 8
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Democracy 4
A perfect coach solves the policy-web economy almost entirely
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Movement chains and team-jump routing are puzzle-solvable
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.
