Codenames: Pictures

Czech Games Edition are pleased to officially announce their first game for 2016 – Codenames: Pictures. This is a follow up to Codenames – the best-selling, Golden Geek Award and Spiel des Jahres winning 2015 title.
Codenames: Pictures uses similar mechanics to the original game, but with a few differences:

• There are nicely drawn pictures instead of words.
• The grid is 5 × 4, instead of the original 5 × 5.
• The rules for valid clues are simpler.
• Each agent now has its own individual image underlining the spy theme.

The 280 black-gray-white pictures have been carefully picked and designed for interesting game play. The pictures usually contain two or more elements that create witty combinations, tell interesting stories, leave some space for imagination, while still being relatively simple for good playability.
