Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Clue Now at none against The Final Node's 3. Clue Now also leads on ads (none vs shown). The Final Node's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.5). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
