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

South Park: The Fractured But Whole leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Ghost Master
Assigning ghosts to fetters needs no dexterity
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Timing minigames barely gate the grid combat
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost Master
Mortal AI panics by rules, not by modelling you
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Enemy turns follow fixed visible logic
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost Master
Mortal behaviour wanders but follows mappable logic
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Minor roll spread; encounters are otherwise fixed
Optimization7 vs 7
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost Master
Ghost-power combos and plasm economy solve each haunting
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Grid positioning and artifact builds solve every fight
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.
