Reviews
Codenames (The Next Web): “I’ve played Codenames in a variety of settings. With close family, non-board game loving friends, work colleagues, and more. Each and every time I’ve played, people have (seemingly) enjoyed it.”

Cryptid (For the Love of the Games): “To be honest, this game is like a racing game, you will have to finish deduce the possibilities before anyone else. There is a tension and you can feel the excitement and nervousness waiting for your turn to come.”

Narabi (Geeks Under Grace): “Narabi is an interesting concept, but in practice, it was not a game I enjoyed. It’s odd—I usually love both puzzle and deduction games, but neither style of play comes through strongly here.”
