Neither is harder. They score identically on all four axes, so the difference between them is in kind, not degree.

Seamless 3D platformer about collecting power cells across a precursor world.

Execution · Practiced Mastery
Era-typical action shooting across varied scripted Star Wars set-pieces.
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy leans Execution (Practiced Mastery); Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire leans Execution (Practiced Mastery).
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Precise jumping and combo movement
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
N64-era aiming and the Hoth sequence demand real control
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Lurkers follow set patterns
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
Imperial enemies follow fixed spawn scripts
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Static seamless world
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
Levels replay identically once learned
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Power-cell routing across the connected world
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
