How comparison pages work

Verdicts are objective, they call out which game scores higher on a single measurable axis (reviews, price, sales estimate, recency). They don't claim "better." Tag overlap is computed from the public Steam tag list. Sales estimates use a multi-factor Boxleiter method whose formula is shown in full on each game's page.

Want a comparison that doesn't exist? Browse all games, find two slugs, and concatenate them: /compare/games/<slug-a>/<slug-b>. Both orderings render the same content; we canonicalise to alphabetical for SEO.
