+ As Darryl Boone of Board Gems put it: "Game designs like this are almost a once-in-a-generation event." + Taps into players' creativity without demanding much improvisation or performance, a common pitfall of party games. + It's been a hit every time I've introduced it to new players.

A solid game that you must have, its simple but so fun to play with a lot of unique combinations, ideas, references that you can bring in that make the game so much more valuable thanks to all the interactions that happens. Love this game.
A perfect party game. Easily accessible rules, fun to speculate, and it's usually simple to come up with a clue to match at least a couple words, though it becomes more fun when the codemaster stretches it and risks giving points--or even the game--to the other team.
The perfect title for any family gathering. The only game capable of pushing it off the table during our get-togethers is Decrypto.
Codenames is the best party game full stop. This is not hyperbole. It is incredibly balanced, it involves everyone at the table, manages to generate interesting discussions and offers great variability and amazing tension. Haters back off
