Codenames Duet New Edition: Join Forces!

Get ready for a new, cooperative mission! In Codenames Duet NEW, you're no longer rivals; you're teaming up with a fellow operative (or operatives in a group game) for an exciting cooperative experience. Your task is to work together to find all your secret agents hidden among a grid of mysterious codenames.
What's the twist? You each see only part of the key—and neither of you has the full picture! This version of the game is perfect for two players, but you can also play it with more friends if you want a less competitive experience than in the basic Codenames game.

How Does the Mission Work?
Lay out 25 word cards in a 5x5 grid. A shared key card lies between you—each team member sees one side. On your side, nine words mark your agents, three are deadly assassins, and the rest are innocent bystanders.
You'll take turns giving one-word clues paired with a number, pointing your partner to specific words on the grid. Guess correctly? You can keep going. Guess a bystander? Your turn ends. Choose an assassin? The mission is a failure—game over! You have nine turns to find all 15 agents.

Will you be able to communicate well enough to overcome all the obstacles and complete your mission on time?
