Codenames hits Android, offering gripping gameplay on the go!

For word game enthusiasts, Codenames is a must-try. This popular board game, centered around spies and secret agents, is now available as a mobile app. Originally created by Vlaada Chvátil and published digitally by CGE Digital, Codenames offers a captivating digital experience.

What is Codenames?

Codenames are secret identities assigned to various characters. Players work as a team to identify secret agents hidden behind code names, guided by one-word clues from their spymaster. The challenge lies in correctly identifying agents, avoiding civilians, and especially avoiding the assassin.

Codenames is a multiplayer game pitting two teams against each other in a battle of wit and deduction. Teams must guess which words on the grid conceal their agents using a single, connecting clue. The game tests your ability to interpret subtle connections and outmaneuver the opposing team.

The digital version introduces fresh words, diverse game modes, and unlockable achievements, incorporating a career-like progression system. Players level up, earn rewards, and unlock unique gadgets along the way.

A key feature is asynchronous multiplayer, allowing players up to 24 hours per turn. You can manage multiple games simultaneously, challenge global opponents, and tackle daily solo challenges.
