Codenames
Teams of 43 pts per win
Two teams face off over a grid of 25 words. Each team's spymaster gives one-word clues to lead their teammates to their own agents, and away from the assassin.
Points
Everyone on a winning team gets the points.
Every win scores 3 points for each player on the winning team.
How to play
- Teams of 4 are drawn on the day. Two teams play each match.
- Each team picks a spymaster, who sees the key card. Everyone else only sees the words.
- On your turn, the spymaster says one word and one number, like "Ocean, 2".
- Teammates touch words to guess. Keep going while you're right, up to the number plus one.
- Touch a bystander or the other team's agent and your turn ends. Touch the assassin and you lose straight away.
- The first team to find all their agents wins.
