Resource Needed:
Here's how you can set up and play Codenames online with your team
Setting up the Game Session:
- Ensure you have a Zoom or Google Meet session active, where you and your team members can communicate during the game.
- Share the link to the Codenames online game with all participants. You can find the game link at: https://codenames.game/
Game Play & Rules:
- Once all players have joined the Zoom or Google Meet session and the game link has been shared, decide on the team composition (Red Team vs Blue Team).
- Designate one player from each team as the Spymaster. The Spymasters will have access to the key that reveals which words on the grid belong to their team.
- The Spymasters take turns giving clues to their team members to guess the words associated with their team's colour on the grid. Remember, clues must be a single word and relate to multiple words on the grid.
- Team members discuss and make guesses based on the clues provided by their Spymaster. The Spymaster covers the guessed words with their team's colour card.
- The game continues with each team taking turns until one team successfully identifies all their words or one team accidentally selects the "Assassin" word.
- If your team successfully identifies all your words, you win the game! But be cautious not to select the Assassin word, as that will lead to an instant loss.
