  • Symbol message games
    Publication number: 20030224842
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for generating symbol messages, and particularly symbol messages using symbols for which efforts have been, are being, or will be made to increase their visibility and familiarity. Such symbols may include trademarks, registered trademarks, service marks, registered service marks, and other well-known symbols. Among other things, the present invention provides a method for generating a symbol or logo alphabet (or Logobet™) and a corresponding lexicon or grammar in which each letter corresponds to a recognized proprietary symbol likely to be associated with the respective letter. The present invention also provides apparatuses for generating such symbol messages and displays incorporating such symbol messages, particularly apparatuses and corresponding methods for playing games (e.g., crossword puzzle-type game such as LogoBabble™) based on the creation of symbol messages.
