A pictorial puzzle, also known as a REBUS, is a type of puzzle that uses pictures or symbols to represent words or phrases. The goal of the puzzle is to decipher the meaning of the symbols in order to solve the puzzle. The term 'REBUS' comes from the Latin phrase 'REBUS sic stantibus, ' which means 'as things stand.' Pictorial puzzles can be found in many forms, including crosswords, word searches, and jigsaw puzzles.
