head to head
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.

Optimization · Pure Optimization
Co-op LEGO brawler where unlocking the right character to grab every collectible is the game.

Optimization · Practiced Mastery
Painterly cinematic puzzle platformer about a girl and her cat-like companion.
LEGO Batman: The Videogame leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); Planet of Lana leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery).
Planet of Lana leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
LEGO Batman: The Videogame
Button-mashy combat with no real fail state
Planet of Lana
Gentle platforming and chase sequences
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
LEGO Batman: The Videogame
Scripted goons and bosses
Planet of Lana
Machines follow scripted patterns
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
LEGO Batman: The Videogame
Stud and brick locations fixed
Planet of Lana
Fully authored puzzles
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
LEGO Batman: The Videogame
Character-ability gating drives collectible completion
Planet of Lana
Companion-command puzzles have single solutions
