User reviews
Good complimentary tool for Codenames. I use it every time I play
You should add duet to the app. You could either sync with the other phone or it could give you a code to give to the other player to put in their phone.
This is perfect for playing codenames over video chat! (Especially given that we're all inside now.) You can have remote people be clue-givers by having one person generate a random card then the other enters the Seed from the menu.
this app made the game much more fun
Helps me play
Great companion app for a fun game!
