LEGO Marvel's Avengers
Mashing through enemies asks almost nothing of the hands
Little Nightmares
Stealth platforming demands timing.
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
LEGO Marvel's Avengers
No adaptive opposition anywhere in the sandbox
Little Nightmares
Enemies are scripted.
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
LEGO Marvel's Avengers
Collectible locations are fixed, just initially unknown
Little Nightmares
Minimal randomness.
Optimization3 vs 4
Little Nightmares leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
LEGO Marvel's Avengers
Hundred-percent completion is a checklist, not a puzzle
Little Nightmares
Routes have fixed solutions.
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.
