CodeNames

CodeNames is a captivating word-based party game designed for 2 to 10 players. It challenges your strategic thinking and language skills, offering an engaging and interactive experience for social gatherings. The game is centered on solving puzzles and uncovering hidden words, with each round lasting between 7 and 25 minutes depending on the board size you select.

Team-Based Strategy and Gameplay

In CodeNames, players divide into two teams: red and blue. Each team appoints a spymaster, whose main role is to guide teammates toward discovering their team’s designated cards using strategic clues. There is also a single-team mode, where one team plays against an automated opponent, making it versatile for different group sizes and preferences. This dynamic setup requires coordination, quick thinking, and the ability to interpret hints effectively.

Dynamic Word Board for Endless Fun

At the start of each game, the board is populated with cards displaying unique words. Depending on your selection, the board can have 12 to 42 cards, ensuring customizable gameplay. Each card belongs to the red team, the blue team, is neutral, or holds a special black card status. Only the spymasters can view the card colors by using the secret code feature, adding a layer of intrigue to the challenge.

Clue-Giving and Guessing Process

The spymaster provides clues to help their team uncover the correct cards while avoiding those belonging to the other team or neutral and black cards. For instance, a clue like 'Animal, 3' might hint at three cards related to animals. The strategic use of clues and careful guesses make CodeNames a thrilling and thought-provoking game for all participants.
