Codenames: Duet transforms the original competitive experience into a cooperative word guessing game designed for two players. Both players give and interpret clues in turn, working together to identify all correct agents while avoiding dangerous words that end the game prematurely.

Communication and shared understanding are essential as players attempt to align their thinking and interpret increasingly complex clues.
