REBUSLY

The news, decoded.

For Solvers

One more for the rotation.

You solve Wordle, Connections and a cryptic before breakfast, on camera, every day. You're the Solverati. Rebusly publishes a visual rebus each morning that decodes a headline from the day's news, about ninety seconds, and it has never been on your channel.

Why it films well

The mechanic is the puzzle

We never tell you which mode you're in. Typographic, syllabic chain, acrostic. Working out how the thing encodes is half the solve, and it's the part your audience watches you do out loud.

It is an image

Not a grid of letters. It reads at thumbnail size, holds up on a vertical crop, and gives you something to point at. Green and yellow squares don't.

It is tied to the news

The answer opens onto the story it came from. You get a second beat after the solve that no other daily game hands you.

Standing notice

The video is yours. Film your solve, run ads on it, put it on a membership, take a sponsor. Rebusly takes no cut and claims no rights to anything you post. The puzzle stays free to play. Just say the name once and link it. That's the whole agreement.

Where you get seen

Film your solve and send the link, or just tag us. We call you out where the Solverati already are, credited on the puzzle you solved, in the weekly recap, and in the morning email. That puts your channel in front of people who play every day, not a page they'll never open.
