Get a basic understanding of CODENAMES in just a minute :)
In Codenames, two teams compete to see who can make contact with all of their agents first. Lay out 25 cards, each bearing a single word. The spymasters look at a card showing the identity of each card, then take turns clueing their teammates. A clue consists of a single word and a number, with the number suggesting how many cards in play have some association to the given clue word. The teammates then identify one agent they think is on their team; if they're correct, they can keep guessing up to one more than the stated number of times; if the agent belongs to the opposing team or is an innocent bystander, the team's turn ends; and if they fingered the assassin, they lose the game.
Spymasters continue giving clues until one team has identified all of their agents or the assassin has removed one team from play.

![[TEASER] Lost Ruins of Arnak: Adventure Chest](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4ae1bKiMMAo/mqdefault.jpg "[TEASER] Lost Ruins of Arnak: Adventure Chest
PRE-ORDERS START: 11ā31 MARCH
www.cge.as/adventure-chest
Full reveal: 11 March
The adventure is calling to you once againāand this time, you donāt have to worry about packing light!
Meet the Adventure Chestāa brand-new expansion to Lost Ruins of Arnak that features an original storage solution designed by CGE and fits all previously released Lost Ruins of Arnak content. The Adventure Chest box is bigger and sturdier than that of the base gameāand it still fits into a certain board-gamer-favorite Swedish-made shelf! The insert itself is made of 8 individual boxes from layered PET material and is designed to make setup, play, and cleanup as easy as possible.
Inside the āAdventure Chestā, weāve included a fresh addition to the world of Arnak, the new expansion āTwisted Pathsā. This expansion brings a new double-sided map bigger than the one in the base game and includes two new research tracks, each with unique mechanisms and components (like brand new temple tiles or new resourcesādark tablets).
In addition to new maps, the expansion contains new guardians, sites, and assistants, and also some solo contentāRival tiles for the new maps, as well as Purple Rival tiles and Rival Objectives, two mini expansions weāve previously released online as print-and-play.
The āAdventure Chestā does NOT include any other Lost Ruins of Arnak content. The base game or any of the two previous expansions, Expedition Leaders or The Missing Expedition, must be purchased separately.")
