Stranded Deep

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: reads (0 vs 1) - AI follows predictable threat-targeting logic

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 4) - Fish spawns and fog-of-dread unknowns until mapped

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 6) - Blizzard timing, condition decay, and loot spawns are heavily random

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 4) - Island loot tables and resource drift introduce randomness

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (2 vs 3) - Combat is forgiving; stealth and swings need modest timing

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (2 vs 3) - Defusing under a timer punishes fumbling

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (2 vs 1) - Place units then watch; no hands required

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (2 vs 3) - Walking and stabbing need timing but little dexterity

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: optimization (6 vs 7) - Unit positioning and upgrade choices solvable.

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 4) - Interrogation tells and clues hidden until discovered

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 4) - PSI randomness, enemy attack variety, and encounter triggers add unpredictability

Both lean on execution about the same (2 vs 2). Biggest difference: variance (5 vs 4) - Hidden branch logic surprises until paths are mapped
