Yes.
First, the end condition of the spell (PHB, pg. 239):
If the creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn't have line of sight to you, the creature can make a Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, the spell ends for that creature.
So when the creature can no longer see the caster, it may make the save. On a success the effect ends, on a ...

It's up to the DM
As you've noted, the language is unclear and this also remains Unearthed Arcana. There really isn't a clear answer because the mechanic isn't clear and it's new. Referring to other mechanics can help guide a DM to an answer, but it's just a guide.

Relevant developer tweet
As stated in the relevant tweet, prismatic wall IS triggered by forced movement. It is a 9th level spell, and it's meant to be insanely powerful.
Many of the contrived interpretations here make it barely better than a 9th level, cool-looking, wall of force (a 5th level spell), with a bit of sight/spell blocking added.
But if this ...

I've had the same question (why I'm on this page, looking up answers). If I had to think of a mechanical difference between a climb speed and second story work is that second story work lets you climb things such as buildings or a cliff side. Something with handholds even if they're small and difficult. Like a mountain climber. One barely grasping on while ...
