Axis by axis

Execution3 vs 2

Lemmings 3D leans harder on execution: Camera wrangling and timely skill assignment add mild pressure

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance1 vs 2

Subnautica leans harder on variance: Resource node placement mildly randomized.

Optimization8 vs 8

Even - both lean on optimization about the same.

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
