Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Quartered at none against Epic Words's 6. Quartered also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). Epic Words's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
