Enemies are scripted.
My Memory of Us

Minimal randomness.
My Memory of Us
Everything is hand-placed and identical across runs
Optimization4 vs 4

Little Nightmares
Routes have fixed solutions.
My Memory of Us
Coordinating the duo's abilities solves each puzzle room
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.
