Marvel Spider-Man UnlimitedvsPokémon Pinball
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is variance, and it is a single point.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited
Execution · Practiced Mastery
An endless runner testing reaction timing across Spider-Man multiverse stages.
Pokémon Pinball
Execution · Twitch Chaos
Flipper execution and table knowledge with Pokémon-catching RNG on top.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited leans Execution (Practiced Mastery); Pokémon Pinball leans Execution (Twitch Chaos).

Axis by axis
Execution6 vs 6
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited
Reaction timing on swiping and dodging carries runs
Pokémon Pinball
Flipper timing and nudge control are the whole input
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited
Endless runner, no opponent to model
Pokémon Pinball
A pinball table has no mind
Variance3 vs 4
Pokémon Pinball leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited
Randomized obstacle spawns add some chaos
Pokémon Pinball
Ball physics and catch-mode rolls add real randomness
Optimization4 vs 4
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Marvel Spider-Man Unlimited
Character collection and upgrades improve scores
Pokémon Pinball
Mode routing and table knowledge raise scores predictably
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.
