Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Plotquist at none against WordsSoup's 3. Plotquist also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). WordsSoup's advantage is chart position (#64 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
