Head to head
Which one will break you first?
Two fingerprints on one grid. Both are scored through your profile, so this answers the question for you rather than for the average player.
Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is the harder of the two for you, by 1.7 points. The gap is widest on puzzle, where Papers, Please asks considerably more than Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. If you want the gentler run, start with Papers, Please.
Axis by axis, biggest gap first
PAPERS, PLEASE
Document checking against a clock, where the rules change every morning and a mistake comes out of the family’s rent.
You will lose sometimes. You will not mind.

Sustained pressure. Progress is earned.
