What is Codenames: Pictures about?
What are these strange symbols on the map? They’re codes for secret contact locations! Two rival spymasters know the agents in each place. The field operatives are told where to meet in coded messages. It’s a tricky job. You may encounter an assassin or enemy agent if you make a decoding mistake. In a race to contact all their agents, only one team wins.
What is the difference between Codenames Pictures and Codenames?
Codenames: Pictures is different from the original Codenames in that the agents are no longer represented by a single word, but by an image that contains multiple elements.
Codenames Pictures is basically the same game, but with fewer cards in play, all while making the game more complex and speeding it up. Several people find the game to be easier to play with pictures rather than words. Four or more people can play the game comfortably; however, larger groups add more fun and energy to the game.
