Cryptograms are cryptographic puzzles that use substitution ciphers to hide messages or words. In these example puzzles, each letter is replaced with another letter, making the original message obscure. Decrypting cryptograms usually involves using knowledge of the language, the frequency of common letter combinations, and contextual clues to deduce the pattern of substitutions, thus restoring the original message or word.
