Axis by axis

Execution6 vs 7

Tricky Towers leans harder on execution: Placing physics bricks fast under pressure is the core test

Reads2 vs 2

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance2 vs 3

Tricky Towers leans harder on variance: Brick sequence and wobble physics inject chaos

Optimization4 vs 4

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.
