Good game but timer arrived broken with sand everywhere. My mom had the same thing happen to her with her game.

This game is so simple in its objective- Get your partner to say the word on the board by giving hints - But it can be played at such a higher level based on strategy and defensive moves.
Our family has played it almost every night since Christmas (now Valentine’s Day)
Play with your kids. Play with your Boy Scout troop. Play it with your grandparents. Play with your drunk friends and neighbors! It’s a blast. It’ll become a GoTo on game night!

I had never heard about this game until recently when we played it at a friends house. It's such a fun game to play with teams so it makes for the perfect couples night activity. We usually play in groups of two, but you can definitely play in groups of three. It's so fun and really gets your brain thinking. It's super frustrating to only be able to say one word at a time, but it's super fun trying to challenge your teammates.

Codenames is awesome! Super easy to learn and teach to others. We play it a lot with my family dinners and friends for games nights. It's extremely entertaining and all people can participate as much as they want or as little. We are always very entertained!

We love this game! It is so fun and easy to understand! I like how everything comes in its own little bag and it is small enough to throw in a bag to take places! I would totally recommend this game if you are into guessing games and strategy

This game is really fun. I’ve played it with small groups (at least 4) and with bigger groups and it’s fun to play and easy to understand in both cases

Codenames can really be played with any size group of people divided into two groups. We love how getting to see how people’s brains make connections between things and then seeing how their team interprets the connection the codemaster made between their words. This game is one of our favorites and a great go-to
