Building comparison
head to head
Ori and the Blind ForestvsWolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Neither is harder. They score identically on all four axes, so the difference between them is in kind, not degree.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Execution · Pure Mechanics

Execution · Pure Mechanics
Faster, harder Wolfenstein blending pulp story with brutal shootouts.
Ori and the Blind Forest leans Execution (Pure Mechanics); Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus leans Execution (Pure Mechanics).
Ori and the Blind ForestWolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Axis by axis
Execution7 vs 7
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Precise platforming and bash-chain escape sequences
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Aggressive dual-wield combat punishes sloppy aim.
Reads1 vs 1
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Scripted enemies, no adaptive opponent
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Enemies scripted in arena waves.
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Fixed layouts, minimal randomness
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Minimal 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.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Ability routing and shard builds matter
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Weapon upgrades and contraptions modest.
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.
