A fast team clue game where one smart word can change the whole round.
Easy to learn, quick to set up, and brilliant for families, friends, and lively game nights.
Give a one-word clue, connect the right codenames, and avoid the assassin.
Product Description
Codenames 2.0 is a clever team game built around word clues, sharp thinking, and a little daring. Two spymasters know which secret agents belong to their team, but everyone else only sees a grid of mystery words. Your job is to connect the right words using a single clue and number, helping your team uncover all of their agents before the other side does.
This refreshed edition keeps the classic gameplay people love, while polishing the experience with updated artwork, a revised word list, a tidier insert, and a simpler rulebook. That means it is easier to teach, easier to organise, and just as exciting once the guessing begins.
Whether you play with family or a bigger group of friends, every round feels different. Some clues land perfectly. Some guesses go wildly sideways. And everyone goes very quiet when the assassin is still on the table.
