Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: GoQuest at 4.7 against Go's 3.0. GoQuest also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 27 months) and ratings volume (575 vs 2). Go's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
