Codenames Duet

Codenames, rebuilt so you're on the same side.

Codenames Duet is the co-operative version: you both give clues, you both guess, and you're working through a shared grid against a turn limit rather than an opposing team.

It scales down to two players brilliantly and still works with a group playing together. The pressure is different - no rival team to blame, just the two of you and a shrinking number of turns.

Perfect for: Two-player households, co-op fans, couples who communicate better in theory than practice
