User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's faithful and feature-rich adaptation of Codenames with multiple modes, no ads, and creative gameplay enhancements. However, slow asynchronous turns, game limitations like inability to quit games easily, occasional server and login issues, and progression-gated features cause frustration. Despite these drawbacks, the app offers well-designed UI, engaging challenges, and a positive multiplayer experience that many find enjoyable and worth the upfront cost.

Pros

Faithful and high-quality adaptation of the original Codenames board game with creative expansions.
Multiple game modes including single-player challenges, async multiplayer, and variant play add great replay value.
No ads or microtransactions; paid upfront which improves user experience and reduces trolls.
Helpful features like quick access to Wikipedia, dictionary, and Google for clues enhance gameplay.
Well-designed user interface and thoughtful progression system with achievements and collectibles.

Cons

Asynchronous gameplay causes very slow turns; players often wait hours or days causing frustration.
Limited number of simultaneous games and restrictions on quitting games frustrate players.
Login and server issues with long waiting times and occasional unresponsiveness harm the experience.
Some game modes and features are gated behind rank progression, causing long queues for higher-level modes.
Lack of clear communication during server outages or maintenance leaves players uninformed.

Recent reviews

The gameplay is incredibly slow. From the point that you spend 15 seconds making your word associations, it's 3-4 minutes before you get another turn. It's so boring. The whole concept of assassins, missions, opponents, and operatives does not make any sense and doesn't add anything to the game; it just slows it down. If you have a quick mind, this game is not for you. On the plus side, there are no ads.

A brilliant adaptation of the board game, updated to be asynchronous and with tons of variant modes and a progression system. You even unlock the variant modes as options to use in the for-fun games you can invite friends to =) On the day that I downloaded they were having some type of server issue that made the game regularly time out (and then flat-out fail to even log in, as the problem progressed), but it's been smooth sailing in the week since then!
