Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 7
Serious Sam's Bogus Detour leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Serious Sam's Bogus Detour
Top-down aiming and crowd-dodging are the lead
Tricky Towers
Placing physics bricks fast under pressure is the core test
Reads2 vs 2
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Serious Sam's Bogus Detour
Enemy hordes follow scripted rushes, not adaptive
Tricky Towers
Timing spells against specific human rivals adds light prediction
Variance3 vs 3
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Serious Sam's Bogus Detour
Spawn timing and drops add some chaos
Tricky Towers
Brick sequence and wobble physics inject chaos
Optimization5 vs 4
Serious Sam's Bogus Detour leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.

Weapon choice and arena positioning matter underneath
Tricky Towers
Stable stacking shapes are learnable patterns
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.
