Codenames (2025)

A party game of wordplay and deduction, Codenames pits two teams against each other as rival spymasters give clever one-word clues to help teammates identify secret agents hidden among 25 codenames. The challenge? Avoid innocent bystanders, enemy agents, and the deadly assassin. Think creatively, guess boldly, and make contact with all your agents before your rivals do!
