Codenames Duet

Two Spies. One Secret Mission. A World of Danger.

The world’s #1 party game goes cooperative! Codenames Duet takes the award-winning mechanics of the original and reimagines them as a tense, two-player (or team-vs-game) experience. Instead of competing against each other, you and your partner are working together as a secret agent duo to contact all 15 of your agents before time runs out.

In Duet, you and your partner sit across from each other, looking at a double-sided key card. Each side shows a different grid of 9 agents for you to find—some overlap, some are unique to your side, and some are innocent bystanders. Most importantly, there are three hidden Assassins lurking in the grid! You must give one-word clues to guide your partner to the right cards, while they do the same for you. It’s a game of shared logic, "inside jokes," and high-stakes deduction.

Why It’s a Tabletop Essential:

• Perfect for Pairs: While it can be played in two teams, it is widely considered one of the best 2-player board games ever designed.
• Cooperative Challenge: No more "me vs. you"—it’s a shared victory or a shared defeat, making it a great "date night" game.
• The Campaign Map: Included in the box is a map of the world with various challenges that change the rules and difficulty as you "travel" from city to city.
• Infinite Replayability: With 400 new words that are compatible with the original Codenames, the combinations are virtually endless.
• 
  

What’s Inside: 200 new word cards (compatible with all Codenames versions), 100 double-sided key cards, 15 green agent tiles, 1 assassin tile, 11 timer tokens, and 1 map of mission locations.
