Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Explore Cities! at none against Nande's 2. Explore Cities! also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.1). Nande's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
