Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SideQuest at 100% against Visited's 33%. SideQuest also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and ads (none vs shown). Visited's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 5) and chart position (#143 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
