Dive into the world of espionage with the Codenames app! This digital adaptation of the popular board game pits two teams against each other in a thrilling battle of wits. Based on the original game by Vlaada Chvátil and published by CGE Digital, Codenames challenges players to decipher secret agent identities hidden behind code names.

Deciphering the Codes:

Players use one-word clues from their spymaster to identify their agents on a grid. The challenge lies in correctly selecting your agents while avoiding bystanders and, most importantly, the assassin. A single wrong guess can mean defeat!

Beyond the Board:

The app enhances the classic gameplay with new words, game modes, and unlockable achievements. A career mode adds a layer of progression, allowing players to level up, earn rewards, and acquire special gadgets. The asynchronous multiplayer feature allows for flexible gameplay, with up to 24 hours to make each move. Challenge friends, compete globally, or tackle daily solo challenges.

Gameplay in Action:

The digital interface presents a grid of cards. Players tap the cards they believe represent their agents. Correct guesses reveal the agents, but selecting the assassin results in immediate loss. Managing multiple games simultaneously adds an extra layer of strategic complexity. As you progress, you'll even take on the role of the spymaster, crafting the crucial one-word clues.
