Word Fables - Prison Break is enjoyed for its challenging word puzzles, engaging storyline, and pleasing graphics. Players appreciate the minimal ads and extra coin rewards for bonus words. However, multiple reviews note slow progression, expensive and scarce in-game coins, bugs with purchased tools not appearing, and some questionable puzzle words. Many users feel the game leans towards pay-to-win mechanics, requiring real money for significant progress, which detracts from overall enjoyment.

Cons

- Some words in puzzles are oddly formed or questionable, reducing immersion.
- Frequent complaints about the game being pay-to-win or requiring purchases to advance comfortably.

| 2023-03-25 |  | | It's a fun game, only 4 stars since I can't play anymore. Finally got to the tunnel and can't process from there, needs to be updated by the programming I guess.🤔 |
| 2022-02-20 |  | | So far I am really enjoying the game. I have only been playing for a short while, so there is not a whole lot I can speak about. The graphics are very vivid and easy on the eyes. The words that you unscramble are associated with the story line, which is a clue in itself if you are having trouble figuring out any of the words. I actually can't remember if there were any ads. If it turns out that there were a couple ads, the fact that I can't recall any tells me they had to have been minimal. |
| 2020-12-11 |  | | Good game, but needs updates badly. I've been playing this game for quite a few months and I've barely made any progress. The goal is to escape, right? None of the tools really give much of an advantage. Also, a few other mentions are: the amnt of coins per correct answer is minimal, no major reward for not being caught by the guard and some of the words can be odd. For example, I had a puzzle today with the word "whereto" I believe that should be two words as, "where to" so it's a bit off. |
| 2020-03-28 |  | | Two stars so far because it's more "solving the puzzles" then actually breaking out. Not to mention it takes a lot of coins for a hint if you would need it lol |
| 2020-03-08 | | | Good time-killer game. Wish the coins for score would be much higher because the tools are quite pricey, but overall it's a fun game. |
| 2020-02-21 | | | Whenever a game goes ultra greedy and starts thowing 3 consecutive adds in a row ots tike to cut them loose and let the go without any fanfare what so ever. Took a cliche story and never knew how to develop it in a strategic tiered fashion. Repulsive result and a toxic experience. |
| 2020-01-16 | | | Pay to win only spaces no clue on any letter. Game has good graphics but paid for tool real money no big hole! Rip off why buy tool? Game dev what changes with tool? Game devs please show progress crowbar screwdriver.paid $16.50 plus $1.99 for no ads to help devs improve game. I want to encourage devs but no more real money ! I will un install if no change improvement of game.. will pay no more & uninstall rating 1 star. More coins needed for winning hints too expensive. Does he ever escape? |
| 2020-01-06 | | | Good game. However, I have bought new tools at least twice now, but theydid not appear in my tools selection. One was a +26 speed. Also, achievements are not being recorded. Please fix the bug! Update: 01/2020 I am no longer receiving new tools when a fellow prisoner have offered a few times already. ☹️ Bugs? |
| 2019-12-05 | | | This is such a dun game. Not to easy but not to hard. Also has a fun story to follow too. I recommend anyone who enjoys word games to try this one out because I LOVE it!!!! |
| 2019-12-01 | | | I enjoyed this game, but I there is a frustrating bug. My tool is stuck on the power drill. I spent 4000 coins on a jackhammer and it never showed up. None of the new tools I buy appear. Annoying and makes me want to ditch the game. |
