HIGHLY APPRECIATED BY PLAYERS
“Codenames is a fantastic way to casually play the board game against people on the internet. I quite enjoy the daily quests as little practice rounds and the power-up features that you can find within the level.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What you should know about Codenames app
- Wait a minute. I’ve already played Codenames Online. What’s the difference?!
Codenames app is designed as a standalone mobile game with new and exclusive content, unique types of games, and other agent challenges. On the other hand, Codenames Online is a 1:1 copy of the original board game. You can check the in-depth comparison in our blog post.
- Cool, so I don’t need a board game anymore, right?
Surprisingly, we believe you’ll find there’s room for both in your collection. Codenames app delivers a whole new experience, designed for playing when traveling, laying in bed, or anywhere else when you have at least 5 minutes. You can play alone or with up to 4 players. The Codenames board game is still the best option when you and a bunch of your friends want to have fun together at the table after a busy day.
- So, do I need other players to play the app?
We get it! We also play mobile games when nobody else is around. With that in mind, we designed Codenames App to deliver the Codenames experience even when you’re playing on your own. So no, you don’t need any other players to be online when it’s your turn.
