Symphonic Rain
no opponent to out-predict

Symphonic Rain
minor branching randomness
Optimization1 vs 2

Indigo Prophecy
few solvable systems, story-driven
Symphonic Rain
minimal systems beyond song mastery
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.
