CODENAMES DUET (2025)

Team up with other covert operatives in the hit cooperative version of Codenames. Two cooperating players or groups exchange clever clues to collectively reveal their agents while sneaking past enemy assassins. With shared goals and limited information, every clue counts in this thrilling test of teamwork and deduction.


This refreshed edition brings new life to the fan-favorite with a revised word list, beautiful new art, a streamlined rulebook for easier learning, and a new insert to keep your game organized. Whether you're playing as a duo or with a larger group, Codenames Duet delivers a satisfying, collaborative challenge!


In Codenames Duet, you're no longer competing — you're teaming up with a fellow operative (or operatives in a group game) for an exciting cooperative experience. 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.


Here’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.


You’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.


The 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!


Your goal: Find all 15 agents — without triggering an assassin — before you run out of time!


The game includes 400 new words that can be combined with those from standard Codenames.

In each of the 20+ Scenarios in Vagrantsong’s campaign, players will take turns spending their 3 Coins to take actions, such as moving around the train board, investigating the unknown, and rummaging for items that might help them get out of a tight spot. Additionally, players can spend their Coins on more exclusive actions to remind a Haint of their lost Humanity, all in the hopes of freeing the spirit from the ghost train’s bone-chilling grip and winning the Scenario in the process. But be careful! Each Haint has its bag of tricks and gameplay mechanics. They will stop at nothing to make sure that the players lose all of their Humanity and stay aboard forever. After each Scenario, players will have a moment to rest, allowing them the opportunity to change out their Skill and Junk cards, heal their Vagrant, and prepare for their next encounter aboard the Silver Ferryman.

PETIQUETTE

What is proper?In Petiquette, players are presented with a random lineup of animals wearing hats and asked a simple, yet peculiar question: which card belongs in the blank spot? The answer? Well, that's completely up to you! This is a game about pattern recognition, perception, and predicting what other players might feel is “just right.” During a round, create the card you think fits best. As you examine the sequence of animal, hat, and number combinations, you'll find yourself searching for any kind of pattern and symmetry to justify your proper pairings. If someone else had the same idea, you both score. There are no right  answers... just what you think is the most "proper"! Whether your mind is magnificently synced with the other players' or you're astounded at their surprising choices, Petiquette creates a sophisticated connection between players, through simple cards and a shared intuition. Petiquette can be played competitively or cooperatively, with close friends or total strangers. Designed by Thomas Sellner, Petiquette is a new kind of thought-provoking experience from Oink Games. Huzzah!
