Menu choices only
Her Story leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.

Hidden clips revealed by guessed keywords.
Yes, Your Grace
Outcomes of choices hidden on first run
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Efficient search strategy reconstructs the case.
