Classic Spy Game 'Codenames' Debuts on Android

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. Originally conceived by Vlaada Chvátil and brought to life digitally by CGE Digital, Codenames challenges players to decipher secret agent identities hidden behind coded words.

Unmasking the Agents:

Teams receive one-word clues from their Spymaster and must identify their agents on a grid of words. The challenge lies in selecting the correct words while avoiding innocent bystanders and, most importantly, the assassin! A single wrong guess can lead to instant defeat.

Beyond the Board:

The digital version boasts fresh words, exciting game modes, and unlockable achievements. A career mode adds depth, allowing players to level up, earn rewards, and acquire special gadgets. The asynchronous multiplayer feature provides flexibility, giving players up to 24 hours per turn. Engage in multiple games concurrently, challenge global opponents, and conquer daily solo challenges.

Gameplay in Action:

The app retains the core guessing game mechanic. Players tap words on the screen, revealing their identities upon correct selection. However, selecting the assassin results in immediate team elimination. Managing multiple games simultaneously adds an extra layer of complexity, enhancing the strategic challenge. As skill improves, players progress to the Spymaster role, crafting the crucial one-word clues.
