About this deal

When using the mission map, an incorrect guess might use up two timer tokens. This happens if you exceed the acceptable number of incorrect guesses. If you have only one token when you must give up two, you skip the sudden death turn and lose the game.

Number of GuessesCorrect answers will reveal the word cards as being agents, whilst incorrect answers can either result in the discovery of an innocent bystander - which simply forces the current group to stop guessing using their clue - or an assassin, causing the game to immediately end and all the players to lose.

Codenames: Pictures was released in September 2016, and includes 200 two-sided cards that feature images instead of words. [2] The game uses a 5x4 grid instead of the original's 5x5, resulting in 20 cards being used at a time, but otherwise has the same rules as the original. The image cards themselves can also be combined with the word cards from the original game for a more advanced gameplay variation. Duet actively works against these moments, and for all the ways it deepens the original idea I can’t forgive it for its humorlessness. For starters the word set is more difficult. Getting a solid clue connecting two of them is a good aim. Three at a time is outstanding. The difficulty curve confirms this as even the most difficult missions will have the players average just over two successful guesses per turn to win. The early missions you can get by with about 1.5 words per turn.

A word marked by a timer token for one player may still be guessed by the other player. When it is marked both ways, it is considered covered. Each turn costs you one timer token from the time bank. Either it is used by the clue giver to mark a bystander the guesser touches, or it is taken by the guesser to indicate he or she is done guessing. Players split up into two teams of similar size and skill. You need at least four players (two teams of two) for a standard game. Some of our playtesters preferred a variant where the two players do not have to take turns. You can allow a player to give two clues in a row, if you like. But then the other player should give a clue. To give all clues from one side before even starting to give clues from the other side is not in the spirit of the game. Some Things To Remember If you are having trouble, you can even use the sand timer on yourself. If you can't find a good clue before time runs out, just give a clue for your hardest word and keep thinking while the other team plays.

If you have used up your last timer token and there are still words to be guessed, it is time for the sudden death turn. Each game has 1 double-sided key card. On your side of the card, 9 words are marked in green. These are the words you want your partner to guess. She guessed ORANGE first. That was an innocent bystander, so she did not get a chance to guess NUT.

You and your partner will take turns giving clues. So if you gave the clue on the first turn, your partner gives the clue for the next turn. So how about this new cooperative version of Codenames? How does Codenames Duet stand up? I’ve got to say excellently.You can't say part of a compound word on the table. If EARTHQUAKE is visible, you can't say earth, quake, earthy, or quaking. But hearth and ear are okay. Guesses should be made one at a time and marked in the usual way. For example, when your partner touches a word, your side of the key card determines whether the guess is correct or not.
