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.

    • Great game!
We have long loved the original Code Names. It’s one of the few games the whole family likes to play. But we always needed to wait until kids were home from college and everyone had time. With Code Names Duet, we can play with just two. The game play is a little different and is more collaborative, which is fun. It’s also challenging to get it in the number of turns allotted. It is a little confusing that one person’s assassin or bystander can be a code name for another person, but we got the hang of it. Strongly recommend! ... show more

    • Even better than the original Codenames! Plus, just two people can really enjoy this game!
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

    • Fun for two!
I love that this game is designed for two people, and it’s cooperative, not competitive. I have played with a friend and also with my husband, and we all love it! The way it’s set up, you’ll never play the same game twice. It’s really fun!

    • Good game for two
Overall, Codenames: Duet is an enjoyable and challenging game that offers great value for two players. It strengthens communication, provides hours of entertainment, and has good replay value. Despite a slight learning curve and occasional frustration, it’s a game we keep coming back to. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging two-player word deduction game. ... show more

    • Approachable, Replayable, Strategic
Easy to learn for most people who have a base familiarity with board or word games but, as with most genuinely good games, while the rules are simple there is no shortage of depth and strategy. Creativity, planning ahead, keeping track of information and the ability to take strategic risks at the right time are all asked of the player. The combinations of words and boards are nearly endless and for 25 dollars or less the bang for your buck and replayability are top tier. You could play thousands of games and they’d each be different. My one caution would be the level of difficulty, as it’s the kind of game that either clicks with someone or it doesn’t. My wife and I are highly experienced gamers and nerdy intellectual types and as such we win the overwhelming majority of the time, as in 90% or more, with very little difficulty. However, we believe our coworkers and their spouses, our parents, our friends, etc would have a much harder time and a much lower win rate, as it’s the kind of game where a single strategic mistake ends the day. If you hit an “assassin” tile you just lose and there’s no opportunity for redemption, so avoiding giving clues that could by any stretch of the imagination lead to your partner guessing one of the forbidden words is absolutely mission critical. Basically, I think this game is probably feast or famine with its difficulty and most average people will lose a lot, and you have to be okay with that if you’re going to purchase this. To the game’s credit, however, it does have a few built-in ways, specifically addressed in its rule book, to make it easier if you need to. Still, given that a certain level of vocabulary is necessary and then within that creativity and abstract thinking is required, this game is almost certainly NOT suitable for younger children. Games are fast and setup/cleanup don’t take long either, and the game itself is small and easy to store. In my mind the pros vastly outweigh the cons for us and we’re very satisfied with our purchase. Like I mentioned earlier, for just 25 dollars or less if you’re even vaguely interested in this kind of game it’s hard to go too far wrong here. ... show more

    • Fun 2 Player Game
I have tried to play the normal code names with 2 players, but it didn’t work very well. This game is great and specially designed for just 2 players. Perfect to play with my husband and easy to learn. The rounds don’t take too long so we can play when we have a little time.
