Decrypto – 5th Anniversary Edition

Transmit secret codes your team understands and your rivals almost do.

Decrypto is a team codebreaking game: send your own teammates coded clues toward a secret sequence of numbers, while the opposing team listens in and tries to crack the same code from outside. Every clue that helps your team understand also risks helping your rivals guess — so the sharpest players learn to say just enough and no more.

This 5th Anniversary Edition arrives in a sleek black-and-gold box with 440 fresh keyword cards, keeping the tension high across as many replays as your group can handle. It's one of the highest-rated party games on BoardGameGeek, and it's easy to see why once you've played a round.
