Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is optimization, and it is a single point.
Gorogoa
Optimization · Pure Optimization
Hand-drawn puzzle where overlapping illustrated panels unlock impossible connections.
Trüberbrook
Optimization · Pure Optimization
Working through fixed adventure-game puzzle chains at a leisurely pace.
Gorogoa leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); Trüberbrook leans Optimization (Pure Optimization).

Axis by axis
Execution0 vs 0
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Gorogoa
Dragging panels requires no skill
Trüberbrook
Point-and-click, zero dexterity
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Gorogoa
No opponent exists
Trüberbrook
No opponent of any kind
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Gorogoa
Solutions unknown on first encounter only
Trüberbrook
Puzzle solutions are hidden until discovered, then fixed
Optimization7 vs 6
Gorogoa leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Gorogoa
Each panel arrangement has one elegant solvable answer
Trüberbrook
Working out scripted puzzle chains is the whole game
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.
