Rebusly publishes one original news rebus puzzle every day. Each puzzle encodes a real headline drawn from that day's news. After solving, players read a curated selection of articles from established news outlets covering the story from multiple angles.
Every puzzle includes articles from multiple outlets, selected to represent a range of editorial perspectives. We do not publish more than two articles from the same political lean in a single puzzle. Sources are drawn from established news organizations with professional editorial standards.
Puzzle topics, article curation, and editorial summaries (ledes) are selected and approved by a human editor. We do not accept payment or consideration from any source, outlet, or subject in exchange for coverage or puzzle selection.
AI tools assist in drafting puzzle clues, ledes, article summaries, and curation notes. All AI-drafted content is reviewed, edited, and approved by a human editor before publication. Puzzle topic selection, article curation, and editorial judgment are human decisions. No content is published without human review.
If a puzzle answer, clue, or editorial summary contains a factual error, we correct it as soon as the error is identified. Corrections to live puzzles are applied immediately. Corrections to ledes or article summaries are noted in the puzzle JSON metadata. To report an error, contact us at corrections@rebusly.com.
We do not fabricate, plagiarize, or misrepresent information. Article summaries accurately reflect the content of the linked source. We do not editorialize in article summaries — editorial voice is reserved for the lede and curation note, which are clearly labeled as Rebusly's editorial perspective.
We do not link to paywalled content without disclosing the access level (free, free with registration, or paid). We respect the intellectual property of source outlets and link to original reporting rather than aggregated versions.
