🧩 Codenames-Style Word Game Online for Teams

How to play Code Words

1. Make a room. Type your name, tap Create a room and send the five-character code (or the link) to your friends. Phones and laptops can share a room.
2. Players split into Red and Blue, and each team picks a spymaster. The spymasters see which of the 25 words belong to which team.
3. On their turn a spymaster gives a one-word clue and a number: how many words it points to.
4. Teammates tap words to reveal them. A right guess lets them keep going (up to the number plus one). A neutral word or the other team's word ends the turn.
5. First team to find all its agents wins. Reveal the assassin and your team loses at once.
