head to head
FAR: Lone SailsvsPowerWash Simulator
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.

Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 3
PowerWash Simulator leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
FAR: Lone Sails
Light platforming and timely lever pulls
PowerWash Simulator
Aim and sweep nozzle precision
Reads0 vs 0
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
PowerWash Simulator
No adaptive opponents
Variance1 vs 1
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
PowerWash Simulator
Minimal, dirt is fixed
Optimization5 vs 6
PowerWash Simulator leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
FAR: Lone Sails
Fuel management and ship-routine efficiency are the game
PowerWash Simulator
Nozzle choice, routing, completion efficiency
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.
