Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Witcher 3 at none against MapGenie's 1. The Witcher 3 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 37 months). MapGenie's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 80%). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapGenie sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. The Witcher 3 asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for MapGenie against 4.8 for The Witcher 3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Witcher 3 has 761 ratings behind it against 55, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of MapGenie's written reviews are positive against 80% of The Witcher 3's.
MapGenie ships an update every 37 months, The Witcher 3 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
