EntwinedvsTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is optimization, and it is a single point.

Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Entwined
Steering two characters on separate sticks simultaneously is the whole test

enemies run simple fixed scripts
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Optimization2 vs 3
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Entwined
Little to solve beyond reading upcoming gate colours
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project
character choice and route memorization
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.
