Prose & Codes vs WordBrain
Prose & Codes
Prose & Codes is a fun and fairly relaxing puzzle game where you’ll need to solve simple substitution ciphers involving excerpts from both popular and obscure literary classics that are listed as “public domain” while being serenaded by beautiful piano music. The game features book excerpts from 7 different genres, ranging from children’s stories to tales of epic adventures; several difficulty levels to choose from, and if you like what you’ve deciphered, you can even hop on over to the online library that is Project Gutenberg since all these books are available to read and download for free.Even if you’re not a whiz at solving ciphers, Prose & Codes will have you hooked from start to finish! The levels are very well designed and tailored to the difficulty setting of your choice, and the excerpts are all very well-selected. If you’re a book lover, not only can you have fun decoding the ciphers and bookmarking the excerpts that you love most; you can also take this opportunity to discover new titles that you might be interested to read.
Finding the corresponding book is easy as pie too since the game provides you with a nifty button that will direct you over to Project Gutenberg where you can download and read the books (in eBook form) for free.
WordBrain
WordBrain is a rather intriguing form of word game mainly because unlike most word-finders, this game is very specific as to which words it wants you to find. Getting the wrong words is not at all rewarding. Not to mention, the grid of letters from which you'll be finding your "hidden words" is quite a fickle little puzzle in its own. This is because the effect of gravity applies to the grid. So, if you remove the bottom tile, for instance, the upper tiles will naturally fall downward. This may sound like not a biggie but this drastically changes how the letter tiles are arranged and how you can link up your second word. Thankfully, if you encounter a difficult level, you can always use hints or get a friend to help out.WordBrain is possibly one of the biggest non-competitive word games out there that's actually a puzzle. The game is available in 15 different languages with over 700 levels per language. Sounds like the perfect evening pastime for you? Well, you can download WordBrain for free on both Android and iOS.
