Codenames Pictures

Codenames just went visual. Instead of one-word cards, teams decode quirky, layered illustrations that can mean a dozen different things depending on how you look at them — perfect for players who think in images rather than words.

Two rival spymasters give one-word clues to guide their team toward the pictures that belong to them, all while dodging the other team's agents, innocent bystanders, and the dreaded assassin. This updated edition features refreshed artwork, a revised set of images, a new box design, and an insert that actually keeps everything organized.

It plays beautifully as a standalone game or mixed right in with the original word based Codenames for even more variety. Quick to teach, endlessly replayable, and a reliable hit for mixed groups, families, and anyone who swears they're "not really a word game person."
