IncredipedevsMinecraft: Java Edition
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.
Incredipede
Optimization · Pure Optimization
A physics puzzle game testing creature-design ingenuity to traverse obstacles.
Minecraft: Java Edition
Optimization · Pure Optimization
An open sandbox where mastering crafting and building systems dominates over any physical skill.
Incredipede leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); Minecraft: Java Edition leans Optimization (Pure Optimization).

Axis by axis
Execution3 vs 2
Incredipede leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Incredipede
Some control of the creature but design dominates
Minecraft: Java Edition
barely relevant, building/PvP negligible for most
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Incredipede
No opponent to model
Minecraft: Java Edition
no adaptive opponent, sandbox play
Variance2 vs 3
Minecraft: Java Edition leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Incredipede
Physics behaves consistently once understood
Minecraft: Java Edition
world gen and mob spawns randomized
Optimization8 vs 8
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Designing limb structures to solve physics puzzles
Minecraft: Java Edition
redstone, base/resource routing solvable systems
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.
