Codenames: Sci-Fi Expansion Pack (EN)

Send your next word clues into a world of space-age ideas with the Codenames: Sci-Fi Expansion Pack. Fifty themed word cards join the agent grid, giving spymasters and partners fresh ways to connect seemingly unrelated concepts.

Add these cards to Codenames or Codenames: Duet and use that game's familiar rules. A clue giver supplies one word and a number, and the other players decide which terms belong together. The pack also includes new agent tiles and a few themed pictures to change the look of a session.

Science-fiction language can invite broad associations, which makes it exciting and dangerous at once. A clue meant to cover two friendly words might also seem to point at the wrong team's card or the assassin. Good clue giving asks you to consider how other people interpret the theme, not just how the words look to you.

This is a small expansion for players who already own a compatible Codenames game. It adds variety without adding a lengthy rules lesson, making it easy to include during a regular game night. The difficulty rating uses the underlying Codenames game because this word pack has no meaningful independent complexity score.
