About this game
Codenames: Deep Undercover keeps every rule of the beloved word game exactly intact and simply swaps in a word list built for a very different kind of game night. Two spymasters still give one-word clues pointing to their team's hidden agents, and teammates still have to guess carefully to avoid the other team's words or the single fatal black card, but now the vocabulary is unapologetically adults-only. It is the same sharp, clever wordplay that made the original a modern classic, just with the kind of blush-inducing clue-giving that turns a normal game night into the one everyone still talks about.
