Axis by axis

Execution7 vs 7

Even - both lean on execution about the same.

Reads1 vs 2

Tricky Towers leans harder on reads: Timing spells against specific human rivals adds light prediction

Variance2 vs 3

Tricky Towers leans harder on variance: Brick sequence and wobble physics inject chaos

Optimization4 vs 4

Even - both lean on optimization about the same.

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
