Wow. They went far beyond simply bringing this great word clue game from the table to an app, and did a spectacular job with it! I'm completely hooked! The original (smart, insanely successful) Codenames is at the core, plus really creative options that aren't possible on a table. (Nothing extra to buy.) You're matched up to play with english speakers from all over, and can also do clue puzzles by yourself. Friends (both in-app and in life) may set up games with more flexible rules and chat.

I really like this app. We've enjoyed the board games (I even have a codenames shirt). The app is more than I was hoping for. I think they have really done a good job in representing the game and enhancing it. Come play!! It does need more people playing. I just start as many as possible (unless I'm doing pass and play) and don't worry about if people slack off. I hope that I can unlock more pass and play options. Thank you codenames team!

Great app with cool features but a few huge flaws. Mainly locking so many things behind consumables and XP gating. And then having a lot of XP and rewards tied to frustrating achievements that are overly punishing, especially when trolls can screw up nearly 15 game streaks. Feels like it was going to be a freemium game and they didn't fix the problem areas before making it paid. Still fun, but really annoying if you want access to everything and are a completionist.
