Author:Kristen Update:Dec 15,2024

Classic Spy Game

Dive into the world of espionage with the Codenames app! This digital adaptation of the popular board game pits you against rival teams in a thrilling battle of wits and word association. Originally conceived by Vlaada Chvátil and now brought to life by CGE Digital, Codenames challenges you to identify your secret agents hidden amongst a grid of coded words.

Deciphering the Codes:

Your team receives one-word clues from your spymaster, and you must deduce which words on the grid represent your agents. Careful consideration is key; avoid civilian bystanders and, most importantly, the assassin! This multiplayer game tests your ability to interpret subtle clues and outmaneuver your opponents.

The app expands on the original with new words, game modes, and unlockable achievements, incorporating a career mode with leveling, rewards, and special gadgets.

Asynchronous Multiplayer Fun:

Enjoy the flexibility of asynchronous multiplayer, granting you up to 24 hours per turn. Start multiple games simultaneously, compete globally, and tackle daily solo challenges.

Gameplay:

Tap the cards you believe conceal your agents. Correct guesses reveal your team's agents, but selecting the assassin means instant defeat. Managing multiple games adds an extra layer of strategic complexity. As you progress, you'll even get to take on the role of spymaster, crafting the crucial one-word clues.
