Verdict

The call

Sporcle and Elementle both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Elementle's written reviews are positive against 35% of Sporcle's. Elementle also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). Sporcle's advantage is ratings volume (4K vs 9) and chart position (#27 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
