Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: CQG at none against eForest+'s shown. CQG also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). eForest+'s advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 46%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
