Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Pathfinder Royale at none against NovelDive's shown. Pathfinder Royale also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). NovelDive's advantage is review sentiment (22% vs 0%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
