Matching weapon colors to enemies rewards planning
Postal 2
Errand routing and weapon selection provide a shallow planning layer
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.
