The Saboteur
Optimization · Practiced Mastery
An open-world action game about blowing up Nazi installations across a stylized black-and-white Paris.
Lunacid leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery); The Saboteur leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery).

Lunacid
Labyrinth secrets are unknown until uncovered
The Saboteur
Patrols vary slightly across the open city

Build stats, spell hunting and route knowledge dominate
The Saboteur
Plotting demolition targets and escape routes is the game
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.
