Scheduling and routing a repeating three-day world where every event is learnable and fixed.

Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Euro Truck Simulator 2
No adaptive opponents
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D
NPCs run fixed three-day schedules, nothing adapts
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Euro Truck Simulator 2
Traffic, weather, cargo conditions
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D
Schedules and secrets are unknown until discovered, then fixed
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Company growth, route, fleet management
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D
