Description

Codemes duet keeps the basic elements of codemes give one word clues to try to get someone to identify your agents among those on the table but now you're working together as a team to find all of your agents. Why you don't already know who your agents are is a question that CONGRESSIONAL investigators will get on your back about later to set up play, lay out 25 word cards in a 5x5 grid. Place a key card in the holder so that each player sees one side of the card. Each player sees a 5x5 grid on the card, with nine of the Squares colored Green representing your agents and one square colored black representing an assassin. the assassin is in different places on each side of the card, and three of the nine Squares on each side are also Green on the other side collectively, you need to reveal all fifteen agents — without revealing either assassin or too many innocent bystanders — before time runs out in order to win the game. Either player can decide to give a one word clue to the other player, along with a number. Whoever receives the clue places a finger on a card to identify that Agent. If correct, they can attempt to identify another one. If they reveal as many as the number stated by the clue giver, then they can take one fil guess, if desired. If they identify a bystander, then their guessing time ends. If they identify an assassin, you both lose.

  • Even better than the original Codenames! Plus, just two people can really enjoy this game!
Edition: Codenames: Duet
My husband and I really enjoy playing the original version of Codenames with our friends, so we also bought this version designed to enhance the experience for just two players (or more,) not knowing what to expect. To our delight, Codenames: Duet is even more fun! While the basic theme and method of play are similar to the original game, we like that the way to success is truly cooperative. Whether it’s just the two of us playing or if we’re playing the game with others, the goal of the teams is to identify agents (the good guys) and assassins (the bad guys) so the good guys can prevail. The game is easy to set up and the rules are not complicated, so plays can start quickly. Included is also a way of playing (finding agents in different cities) that extends cooperative play but doesn’t put stress or pressure on any one player like the game Scotland Yard tends to do. Altogether, Codenames: Duet has been designed to provide an experience that encourages discussions of strategy and gameplay that are enjoyable for everyone and it doesn’t take hours to play. We recommend this game for couples, families and groups of people who prefer cooperative play where every player is important and involved rather than cutthroat competitions where people are only in it for themselves and their fellow players are essentially the enemy. With a Codenames: Duet, a relaxing and friendly time can be had by everyone. I pay full price for all of my Amazon purchases and I rarely write 5 star reviews. Codenames: Duet truly deserves 5 stars! ... show more

  • Cooperative two person fun game!
Edition: Codenames: Duet
Finally found a great two person game! I love that it is a cooperative game which is nice for a change of pace....probably saving our marriage....lol! This game makes you think outside of the box to come up with good clues that fit your cards, but not fit the kill cards. My only con (ish) is that they give you way too many "key cards" that are so not needed....could play with 20 or 30 at the most and then give us more word cards instead as that is what you go through the most. We actually pulled out our regular Codenames and added those cards to this version. Also bought a game called Clue-nect that has picture cards and we use those for a variety. Very fun game! ... show more

  • Challenging and Great Fun!!!
Edition: Codenames: Duet
Bought this game for a date night and it was a huge hit! Having played a few versions of the Codenames game, I was familiar with the overall concept but thought that this version had an interesting twist to it. For those unfamiliar with the concept of the Codenames games, the object of the game is to get your partner to correctly guess words from a 5x5 row of word cards. One player has a card that shows which spaces you are trying to get your partner to guess as well as those which you want them to avoid. The player then gives their partner a clue word along with a number of cards which they hope that their partner can relate it to. The partner then guesses at the cards which they believe the other player is hoping to lead them to through several rounds. The spin in this game is that each person is playing each role in time. While trying to get your partner to guess off of the board, they too are trying to get you to guess off of the board as well. The usual play card is double sided so that each player can see the spaces that they want their partner to guess and avoid in hopes of reaching 15 correct guesses together. The game is great fun! Trying to relate words together while trying to avoid others can be a bit challenging. The real strategy comes in knowing the way in which your partner thinks and which clue words to use to get them to guess what they need to guess. The game also comes with instructions for more challenging "missions". Haven't gotten there yet, but sure am looking forward to it. Great fun for a date night or game night with family! Among the best! ... show more
