Product Description

Codenames is a social word game with a simple premise and challenging game play. Two rival spymasters know the secret identities of 25 agents. Their teammates know the agents only by their codenames. The teams compete to see who can make contact with all of their agents first. Spymasters give one-word clues that can point to multiple words on the table. Their teammates try to guess words of their color while avoiding those that belong to the opposing team. And everyone wants to avoid the assassin. The game works very well with 4 players if you prefer to guess without help. Or you can add more players if you prefer lively discussion. There is also a cooperative variant where a single team tries to achieve the highest score they can by playing against the game itself.

    So fun!
    I had never heard about this game until recently when we played it at a friends house. It's such a fun game to play with teams so it makes for the perfect couples night activity. We usually play in groups of two, but you can definitely play in groups of three. It's so fun and really gets your brain thinking. It's super frustrating to only be able to say one word at a time, but it's super fun trying to challenge your teammates.

    Codenames can really be played with any size group of people divided into two groups. We love how getting to see how people’s brains make connections between things and then seeing how their team interprets the connection the codemaster made between their words. This game is one of our favorites and a great go-to

    5.0 out of 5 stars Almost legit for such a low price!
    Reviewed in India on April 1, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    This product is almost legit! I say almost because all the components inside are high quality, but the packaging inside the box was not. I've seen unboxings of this game and it is not the same. This one I got is from Cloudtail, so I can only speak for this seller's product.

    Nothing was damaged though. The individual decks of cards and cardboard cutouts are of perfect quality and are individually wrapped, but there is no padding in the box and everything is loose and moves around. But I had no damage to any of my components luckily enough.

    I'm guessing these bunch of boxes were rejects or possibly even made in India, but the quality of everything is exactly what you want. And for 1/4th the price of the OG it's a steal.
