Description
Codenames: Duet is a cooperative word game where you and your partner work together to find all of your agents. The game is simple to learn and can be explained quickly, making it easy to dive right in. You'll lay out 25 word cards in a 5x5 grid and use a key card to guide your clues. Each player sees a different side of the key card, which shows the locations of your agents and assassins. Your goal is to reveal all 15 agents without uncovering an assassin. You'll take turns giving one-word clues and guessing which words on the grid match the clue. As long as you keep identifying agents correctly, you can keep guessing. But if you uncover an assassin, the game is over. With a playtime of just 15 to 30 minutes, Codenames: Duet is a fast-paced and exciting game that challenges your communication and deduction skills.
