We study the following simultaneous embedding problem: Given k graphs on the same vertex set with the same pairwise intersection, do they admit planar drawings that coincide on their shared graph? We establish fixed-parameter tractability with respect to the vertex integrity of the union graph (that is, the union of the input graphs) plus k, resolving an open question and generalizing the known algorithm parameterized by vertex cover number plus k. Our main technical contribution on the way towards this result is the extension of the recently introduced Ramsey pruning technique beyond ordering problems. Finally, we complement our tractability result with a lower bound that establishes NP-hardness when both k and the pathwidth of the union graph are bounded by constants, ruling out a generalization of our main result to path- or treewidth.
