Two-Player Game
If there are only two of you, you can play on the
same team. This two-player variant also works
for larger groups of people who don't feel like
competing against each other. You will try to get
a high score against a simulated opponent.
Set up the game as usual. One player will be the
spymaster and the rest will be field operatives.
The other team has no players, but you still need
their stack of agent cards.
Your team should go first, so be sure to pick a key
card that makes you the starting team.
Play your turns as usual. Try to avoid enemy agents
and the assassin.
The spymaster simulates the enemy team by
covering up 1 of their words each time they get
a turn. The spymaster gets to choose which word is
covered, so there is a bit of strategy here.
If your team contacts the assassin, or if all the enemy
agents are contacted, you lose. There is no score.
If your team wins, give yourselves a score based
on how many agent cards are still left in the
enemy's stack.
Note: Your score will be determined by how many
turns you needed and also by how many enemy
agents you contacted accidentally.
Three-Player Game
Three players who want to be on the same team
can play as described above. If two players want to
compete against each other, they can be spymasters
and the third player can be their operative.
Setup and game play are as usual, except that the
single field operative is working for both sides.
(Just like spies in real life!) The winning spymaster
is determined in the usual way. The field operative
tries to do a good job for both sides.
Codenames Duet is a cooperative version of Codenames specifically designed for
small numbers of players. Double-sided key cards allow all players to be spymasters
simultaneously! (Also, you get 400 new words.)
