Codenames TutorialΒ 

Β 

there are many cards with random words on them. some are the Red teams, some are the Blue teams.

there are also some bystanders, as well as 1 instant-lose card.

to win the game, you must be the first team to capture all your cards.

there are two teams, Red and Blue. Each team has a Spymaster - who knows which cards each team has - and will give clues to their team,

in hopes that they can guess the cards that relate to the clue.

the clue will also include a number - this is the number of cards on the board that relate to the hint.

there are 8 or 9 cards for each team, depending if you team goes first or not.

guessing the correct word will give your team a point.

guessing a word that the other team has, will give them a point.

a bystander card won't give a point to any team, but your turn will be ended.

if you click one of these and the round ends, you can still use previous hints in the next turn!

the Assassin card, aka death card, will automatically make you lose if your team clicks it.Β 

again, the goal of the game is the Operatives being able to guess which cards are their teams.

the first team to get all their cards, wins!
