TeenagentThe Room Three
Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 1
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance4 vs 3
Teenagent leans harder on variance: Puzzle solutions are hidden until discovered, then trivial
Optimization6 vs 7
The Room Three leans harder on optimization: Each puzzle box is a fully solvable mechanical system
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
