1Rounds are general, you are not

A rematch measures what most players care about. If you care about one round much more than the others, that round decides it for you.

2Price changes everything

A $19.99 game against a $59.99 game is a different decision on a tight budget, and sales change the picture every month.

3Friends change everything too

A single-player masterpiece is not much use for a group. Sons of the Forest loses its rematch, but it is the better pick for four friends.

Every rematch on this site ends with who should choose the other game. Start there if you are unsure.
