Codenames
Codenames is a team word-guessing game where two teams compete to identify their agents on a 5x5 grid of words. Each team has a Spymaster who gives one-word clues to guide their teammates to the correct words. The clue must relate to one or more words on the board, and the Spymaster also says a number indicating how many words match. Operatives then discuss and guess, trying to avoid the other team's words and the dreaded Assassin — revealing it means instant loss! The first team to find all their agents wins. Great for groups who love wordplay and deduction.
