Frostpunk
Scenario events and weather pulses add tension.

Class routing and build planning dominates
Frostpunk
Resource routing, laws, and heat are solvable.
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.
