The mission? Work together to find all your secret agents hidden among a grid of mysterious codenames. The twist? You each see part of the key — and neither of you has the full picture. Codenames: Duet is perfect to enjoy with only two players, but you can also play it with more friends, if you'd like a less competitive experience than in the basic Codenames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere’s how the game works: Lay out 25 word cards in a 5×5 grid. Between you is a shared key card — each half of the team sees one side. On your side, nine words mark your agents, three mark deadly assassins, and the rest are innocent bystanders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll take turns giving one - word clues paired with a number, pointing the operative(s) across from you to specific words on the grid. Guess right? Keep going. Guess a bystander? Your turn ends. Guess an assassin? Mission failed — game over. But as long as your guesses are correct, you can keep going, even revisiting past clues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game is played over a series of 9 turns, but can be increased to 11 turns for operatives who may need a little more time as they improve their skills. Since everyone is working together, there's no downtime between turns — keeping all players fully engaged throughout!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour goal: Find all 15 agents — without triggering an assassin — before you run out of time!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game includes 400 new words that can be combined with those from standard Codenames.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Geek Culture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53447902003473,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/8675\/8417\/files\/CodenamesDuet.webp?v=1776837377","url":"https:\/\/cardmerchantnewplymouth.co.nz\/products\/codenames-duet-2025-refresh","provider":"Card Merchant New Plymouth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
