Two teams. Two spymasters. Twenty-five codenames.
- Split the class into two networks. Each network picks one spymaster.
- Both spymasters read the key card together — it shows which words belong to which network. Everyone else looks away.
- On your turn, your spymaster says one English word and a number: "OCEAN, 3" means three of your words link to ocean.
- The team talks it through and taps the tiles they think are theirs. They get the number of guesses in the clue, plus one extra.
- Tap one of your own agents and you keep going. Tap a bystander or a rival agent and your turn ends. Tap the mole and you lose on the spot.
- First network to uncover all its agents wins.
Clue rules: one word only, in English. No word that is printed on the grid, no rhymes, no spelling out letters, no gestures. Compound place names count as one word.
