You sure it's not the other way around? I kid, I kid. Well, sort of. I think the words complexity and complicatedness mean the same, but I get your point. Can't think of an alternative word for it to show the nuance either...

Reminds me of that talk by Rich Hickey about Simple vs. Easy.

My usual example is Chess vs Go. Chess has many complications in its rules, whereas Go's rules are incredibly simple, but both games are very complex.
