Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 1
Digimon World leans harder on execution: Light real-time battle nudging and timing
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance6 vs 7
The Cabin Factory leans harder on variance: Which anomaly appears per cabin is hidden RNG
Optimization8 vs 6
Digimon World leans harder on optimization: Once requirements are mapped, raising becomes a solvable schedule
