The word association party game that's genuinely clever — give one-word clues to guide your team to the right cards.
What makes Codenames distinctive?
Codenames is one of the most acclaimed party games ever designed — simple to explain in two minutes, generating moments of genuine brilliance and hilarity. Two teams compete to identify their secret agents (word cards) using single-word clues that connect multiple cards simultaneously. The spymaster's challenge — finding a clue that connects 'moon', 'boot', and 'Italy' without touching the assassin — rewards creative lateral thinking. Quick (15–20 minutes), replayable almost infinitely, and scales from 4 to 8+ players. Available at Waterstones, Amazon, and most toy retailers.
