head to head
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is optimization, and it is a single point.

Optimization · Pure Optimization
Quiet side-scrolling journey piloting a land-ship across a dried-out sea.

Optimization · Pure Optimization
Engineering structurally sound brick builds under physical constraints.
FAR: Lone Sails leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); LEGO Bricktales leans Optimization (Pure Optimization).
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
FAR: Lone Sails
Light platforming and timely lever pulls
LEGO Bricktales
Placing bricks needs care, not speed
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
FAR: Lone Sails
No opponent of any kind
LEGO Bricktales
No opponent in a diorama
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
FAR: Lone Sails
Mostly fixed obstacles, minor unknowns first run
LEGO Bricktales
Puzzles are fixed once seen
LEGO Bricktales leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
FAR: Lone Sails
Fuel management and ship-routine efficiency are the game
LEGO Bricktales
Engineering stable builds within constraints is the test
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.
