My favorite one is when your teammates start insulting your intelligence. “Ok so he said ‘president, 2’… Does he know that Canada doesn’t have a president????”
Meanwhile Lincoln and James Madison are watching helplessly from the sidelines, being ignored.
I said the clue "molecule" and I intended one of the corresponding words to be "compound." one of my friends said "nah thats chemistry they're not a stem major they wouldnt think of that." bruh
My brother questioned if my 23-year-old cousin knew what a nintendo switch was lmao
That's general knowledge though, not intelligence. And I mean, they're not wrong for questioning whether you know if Canada has a president or not. It's part of the game to see how well you know your team mates way of thinking and levels of knowledge, same for the team mates about the team leader. ^^

I swear my wife got the clue "Legos: 5", and she got all five. I just watched in awe and asked how, and her response was "You can make those things out of Legos." "YOU CAN MAKE LITERALLY ANYTHING WITH LEGOS! THEY'RE LEGOS!!"
And...why was the clue "Legos?"
@@Penguinmanereikel because you could make those five things out of legos, duh
Clearly the hint-giver thought the same thing
Lego, there's no such thing as "legos". It's a mass noun/corporate name.
@@martind2520 Dude. No one asked you.
To anyone who hasn't play Codenames: There is no joke here. This is just the actual game. It's insane to see the logical leaps people make. Granted, sometimes those leaps have to be made, but it's whenever the answer is obvious that it gets upsetting.
I cannot stress enough how relatable this is, exactly down to the clue. I once did Mammal, 2 for my mothers bf (words were Dog and Bat) and he literally went "Well, a bat's a bird and a dog isn't a mammal so they're out".
LMFAO
That gave me second hand embarrassment, and makes me wonder then what he thinks a dog is categorized as...
This hurts.
That's not overthinking, that's underthinking lol
"Mom? I'm telling you this for your own good. You need a new boyfriend."

Even with my insufficient knowledge of board games, I too can relate to the unending void of stupidity that seems to suffocate my friends whenever I want to win something.
This is such a good comment.
@@bwood6337 ruined by the bots, unfortunately.
@@RhinoHorn7 who were apparently reported and removed by the time I got to this reply section. that's cool
Once I played with a friend and I said something like cold and this dude chose sun because, "ahh well you said cold and the sun is hot which is the opposite of cold so I thought you wanted me too pick that"
not his proudest moment
What was the word?
Without the sun we'd be very cold, so...
I… have done that 😂
Twisted ass logic
Lemme guess, 'ice' and 'polar bear' were the code words? 😂
Knowing you can't help as your teammate sinks the ship
👁️👄👁️
This is literally torture lmao
You guys have friends?
So funny, I'm practically laughing and crying.
Thats why I mostly play single player games.
Then there is the reverse situation: There are two enemy / assassin tiles that fit your word better than the tiles you chose, but your tunnel vision blinds you to the trap until your team *immediately* consider those alternatives. And then you just sit there... sweating as they discuss how the two trap tiles are "obviously" the obvious answer.
Since when were there two?
@@undvined theres codenames duet which has 3 assassins, but they can be covered up, leading to potentially just 2 assassins. However, I think what was meant is that there are a total of 2 bad tiles, where bad tiles are either the assassin, or an enemy tile.
It’s like if L from death note spent his time playing board games instead of solving murders
Like if L was a detective who only took L's
Yes
@melonmusk6668 okay I know this is a spam bot, but I'd love to know the algorithm that decided "funny video of ProZD eating his new cat" was a reasonable way to entice viewers.
"If I try hard in this tennis game he'll think I'm Kira. But if I don't try hard he'll think I'm deliberately holding back to hide the fact that I'm Kira. But If I hold back on holding back then he'll think I think that he thinks that I'm Kira."
I now want an OVA series of Light and L being friends just playing board games or even video games with like 90 seconds of monologue overthinking every single move
A painfully relatable experience portrayed with perfect accuracy.
Now we need the opposite, a person who starts so far off track you'd think they had a head injury but they somehow connect it to the right answer
In case people don't know the game code names: there are 25 words in a 5x5 grid. There are two teams, and each team has one hint giver and multiple hint guessers. The hint givers take turns giving hints and they're trying to get their teammates to guess all their team's 7 or 8 (depending on who goes first) words before your opponent does that first. What words you have are chosen at random basically. The hint you give has to be one word, and you want it to relate to multiple other words on the table that you need your teammates to guess. so mammal 2 means guess two words that have something to do with mammal. You *could* say mammal 6, if your teammates guess the 6 words right that's awesome and you're super ahead, but good luck being good enough to give such an all encompassing clue that's not too vague. There's one word that's the assassin, if any team picks that they automatically lose, and if your team picks the opponent teams word, they get that point.
Sungwon is making fun of a common situation with code name players where the hint giver gives a hint that is quite reasonable but their teammates totally overthink it and screw it up.
This is a great party game even for people who don't play board games! All ages can play! Highly recommended!
Edit: game is called Codenames! I said that at the beginning but forgot grammar when it mattered most!
"Uh, I don't know, I don't know..." (c)
What are cards let's just play a few rounds
Thanks for the explanation, sounds fun!
Thank you!
What's the name of the game?
this was literally my Christmas playing mysterium with people. thank you for representing the struggle so accurately
SAME HERE! lol
Same game!
@don't be surprised
Narrator: He did not.
Ditto lol. Without fail every mess up is from overthinking.
Mysterium is one of this type of game that is so abstract it's _too_ abstract. It's a lot harder to do that whole thing with image reading rather than simple words and phrases, especially when the art on those cards is ludicrously busy
everyone: OMG okay so these pics have this similar theme! lookit the previous hints! they're all this and that and if you look reeeaalllly closely you can see there's a tiny mouse! and that relates to this other pic that has cheese!!
me: there... there was water in both images so it relate to the water......
This is incredibly accurate to a game of Code Names I played years ago. We still tell the story of how we got the clue “Trains 4” and yet “Model and Conductor” were not correct but somehow “Runway and Honey” were.
There aint no way honey and trains are related words
Still... you went for 4??? Other than model and conductor what were the other 2 ''related'' words?
Yeah, for years one of my friends' nicknames in our group chat was a reference to a blunder she made in codenames. She used the clue 'Green' and 'Giant' was one of the cards, so literally everyone else at the table thought 'Oh right, the Green Giant is a thing', but somehow it just didn't occur to her
@@meabhmurphy9090Because most people don’t consider food brands when playing board games
@@DeathnoteBBgoogle pattern recognition
There are 2 types of Codenames players: those who try to 5-D chess every guess like this, and those who really think it's just the obvious but slowly get broken down by the enthusiasm of the other teammates until they decide "yeah, ok, let's go with 'Bond' and 'Hollywood'."
Me playing this game: I assure you, I am not as smart as you think I am.
Until they start questioning your basic knowledge. Then you know you are both dumber then they think you are AND smarter then they think you are.
How did you get footage of a CodeNames game I played with my coworkers three years ago?
@imsacredtotell *silence, bot*
It's called "Codenames" though
The Matrix has you
@@Kingdom_Of_Dreams That it is! Thank you for correction; I settled on the other title as its what came to mind.
I didn't realize you worked with my sister-in-law and ex-boyfriend.
If Codenames doesn't make you feel this way, you're not playing it right
No joke, one time I played with my friends the clue giver said lawn for 2 as the first clue of the game. He wanted them to guess grass and green, which they were about to, before my other friend chimed up and said, "Wait I dig holes in my lawn, so I think he wants us to go with hole!" Hole was the black card, he definitely didn't want them to go with hole.
“Oh well shit Stanley, you got it! I was basing my clue entirely on things YOU do in your yard specifically! What a genius!” - What I would have been trying not to say because I’m an a-hole when my patience is gone
Man, I just played this game with family at Christmas, and this really happened
I saw the title of the video in my notifications and already knew it would be about Codenames
@don't be surprised why tf are you spamming the comment section with this crap?
Same

I love the blatantly deadpan delivery of *" WHAT DO YOU MEAN MAMMALS PLAY GAMES "* hilarious lmao
I wouldn't expect less from a hilarious channel
Mammals do play games though! For example, virtually every video game is purchased and played by mammals.
I hate these spam comments. You pick one line at random from the video and put it into your comment template. There are thousands of these and they add nothing.
My favorite boardgame and it’s biggest flaw. Having to stay stoic while your teammates stray away from the obvious zero-to-one layer of separation and go into Pepe Silvia crazy-wall thinking. It takes SO much to overcome showing any emotion, but it would ruin the game fairness.
So true. Sometimes I have to turn around or walk away until my team makes a choice, otherwise I'll just visually rage on all the wrong words they're talking about.
@@jonniboye6399 and then by being human, you’re cheating 😅 idk i love watching the other team try to stay composed so i don’t consider it a major flaw. But imo it’s the only flaw in the game (besides new people asking if they can give certain types of clues, which can inherently help the team even if the answer is “no you can’t”). But information was gained from that interaction lol. That usually sorts itself out after everyone played a couple games though.
its*
LOL, Codenames is such a window into other people’s minds. I remember a game where I was trying to get somebody to get “glue” and “oil”. I said “viscous, 2” and I’ll never forget that look saying “What the heck is ‘viscous’?” 😂
Viscous is a James Bond villain, obviously.
Ok, in fairness Viscous isn't a super common word in the English Language. I can forgive someone for not knowing what it was and/or forgetting it after High School chemistry.
@@webbowser8834 You’re totally right! It was my mistake to use such an uncommon word. I should have been clearer about that. I thought it was funny because I played totally wrong by not thinking hard enough about the vocabulary and common knowledge of my teammates 🤓
@@friiq0Hell I know what viscous is and it would have thrown me. I wouldn’t consider oil viscous, as on my mind viscous is more sticky or obstructive, while oil is a lubricant and pretty slick
@@DeathnoteBB I suppose that’s a fair point. I have a Chemical Engineering degree, and in that field the “viscosity” of a fluid has nothing to do with how sticky it is, but rather with how resistant it is to flow (in other words, how goopy it is). So in my mind, a fluid can be viscous even if it is quite slick-so long as it has a quite thick consistency and it’s harder to stir than water. I actually wouldn’t have considered “stickiness” to be part of the definition of “viscous” until I looked up the definition a few minutes ago. I guess the common definition isn’t guaranteed to totally line up with the technical definition. That’s another reason why “viscous” was a bad clue, I suppose 😅
0:32 The absolute sheer emphasis of the “ *W H A T.* ” as he is comprehending the leaps in logic here is absolutely hilarious
I absolutely love that line and delivery
You always gotta be careful, you don't want to end up in a 30 minute somersaulting factory cheese-tasting phase.
I felt this as both a DM and as someone who works for an escape room.
If I had a nickel for every time I’ve wanted to scream over the comms at dumb players, I’d have enough money to pay for the therapy I need from watching people play escape rooms.
@@Magniflorious there should be an escape room that let’s you tell your players how stupid they are. Like every so often you can be an actor whose roll is just “villain who mocks the players”
you know whats even more frustrating: Being that one person that actually understood the puzzle but then the rest off the group is like: nah thats to easy we wont do that for them to then stunt for like 10 minutes till they give up and you can finally do the thing you actually proposed wich then proved to be the correct thing.
I was that puzzle understanding guy at least two times now in an escape room group.
@@jeltevl8868Omg that’s exactly how my science class groups are 😭
“It’s this, we have to do this”
“No that doesn’t make any sense”
*10 minutes later*
“So what did say we have to do?” because they realized they’re not getting anywhere
The most fun is when a player on the other team is guessing like this and you're watching their teammates endure this agony.
Legitimately one of my favorite things to do as the opposing team. 😄
As this was uploaded, me and a group of friends were playing that tabletop game, One Night Ultimate Werewolf. One of my strategies if I'm the wolf is to pretend to be the tanner, who has to make others vote him as the wolf. The best way to do this if I'm giving out blatantly wrong clues to make them overthink and guess wrong, and I swear when this happens it's just like this
One time I played the role of the thief, and stole someone's werewolf card. I then accussed the exwerewolf of being the werewolf, and claimed that I had such knowledge because I was the seer. The only person who suspected me of being the werewolf was the real seer, who suspected me because there can only be one seer in the game.
In the end, I managed to successfully put suspicion onto werewolf-turned-thief, and the thief was outed as the werewolf.
It was a victory for werewolves everywhere
@@Canaris4 Mine was that I was the Hunter, my strategy for Hunter is to *TELL* people you are. Not only does this make sure you're going to okay, but it scares people into voting you out and scares the werewolves because the Hunter kills someone when they die.
Actually, this is why I love this game in a multinational setting.
I gave the clue "flying 6" in a Codenames party.
There were 6 cards about thing actually flying in the atmosphere... my teammate hit the 7th card, Jupiter first, which was the other team's codename... :D then we had a discussion on languages as noone was a native speaker there, and we realized that in his mother tongue Jupiter is "flying" the same way as a bird.
It’s fascinating how language changes one’s perceptions of things. In English most people would not consider a planet to “fly”, as flying is usually seen as an active action, not when something is hanging in air. Even though we say planes fly when they also often just hang in air (same with some birds). I guess we consider us perceiving the movement as flying even if there’s no wing-flapping, like paper airplanes.
@@DeathnoteBBplanes dont hang in air are you thinking of helicopters
Worst part is when those words are still your teams' and they think they nailed it, and you can't say anything about it until the end of the game
That's when you just give the exact same clue and number again, on your next turn.
@@matthewmaas9031I tried that once, didn’t work.
This is the logic that got my friend to pick "soul" when the clue was "trade". Soul was the assassin.
I picked "uniform" when the clue was "snow", which was the assassin 😂 That was the very first round, too!
@@Kingdom_Of_Dreams I'm really curious how that logic came about. That's funny.
@@VMan776 The "uniformity" of snow is a literary way of saying that the color, texture, and amount of the snow is all the same, all around you. As someone who appreciates literature, my brain was dead set on "uniform", and immediately after picking it, I realized how dumb I was 🤣
@@Kingdom_Of_Dreams uniformity isn't uniform, and also can literally be used to describe anything from people to brands to flavors. How would that have anything to do specifically with snow and not every single other word imaginable? That almost feels like UNDER thinking. Like if you had just kept thinking, you would have dropped it.
@@chrismanuel9768 It's codenames. It depends how many they said. It's common to do a somewhat wild connection at the start, as it gives your team something to think about in future rounds if they choose not to go for it. So if it were "Snow 3", and the third word was a bit out there, "uniform" could have been a reasonable guess.
As for "uniformity" and "uniform", they're just different forms of the same word for the purpose of codenames. If something is "uniform" it is experiencing "uniformity".
i was already laughing but the "you know who else is a human? daniel craig" "WHAT" really got me
I remember this game. I once clued some food (I think it was hotdog) by saying "Male".
... My agents got it.
The expression of overconfidence while saying the word "bond" absolutely sends me
I sometimes do the overthinking part just to fuck with the spymaster for fun but then take the obvious choices in the end.
Kinda fun to come up with the wildest mental gymnastics on how the hint could be related to something that was definitely not supposed to be the hint for it.
Codenames: chaotic neutral edition
In an ironic twist, Bond and Hollywood would also be words they needed, and they would proceed to guess Apple as the bonus word because you watch Hollywood films on Apple TV+.
We have a party member in our DnD campaign who will think of problems with our plan that the DM didn't even think of, but will gladly implement against us. He has no awareness of the fact that it's a game sometimes and that no one overthinks on the level he does. It really do be like that T_T
This is painfully accurate and I am emotionally devastated by the repressed rage that this video has brought up from many sessions of Codenames
This clip is applicable for every game of codenames ever played WHY DID MY CODE GIVER THINK "LINES 5" WAS A GOOD CLUE
He figured out the Daniel Craig maneuver? That's some 5D chess- level skill.
Basically every ChilledChaos session of Codenames, lmao
Ze be fucking up
Using their own discussion as if it was the clue you gave is a classic
These mammals do be playing games.
My favorite Codenames clue I've ever given was one where the last three we needed were lined up in an row in the top left corner, from left to right.
My clue was "first 3".
Took them a while, but it was REALLY funny when they got it.
I'm pretty sure that's against the rules in the manual, but 🤷♂️
@@chriswahl1337 ignoring the rules is half the fun of board games
You must have felt so proud of yourself and your team mate.

Perhaps the most annoying part is that Bond is not a Hollywood film series at all.
They're produced in Hollywood with Hollywood directors and Hollywood actors. If you mean to say the franchise was originally British... who cares? So was America, but then we made it better. James Bond is pure Hollywood.
@@chrismanuel9768 They're produced in Pinewood studeos - a studeo well known for not being in Hollywood, but in the UK and have only ever had 2 American directors...
@@chrismanuel9768 umm actually....
Eon Productions Ltd. is a British film production company that primarily produces the James Bond film series. The company is based in London's Piccadilly and also operates from Pinewood Studios in the UK.
They were one third of the production companies that produced skyfall (the first movie I checked) and was the primary on that movie and since they're listed on the other 5 movies I checked your statement "James Bond is pure Hollywood" is incorrect.
Which calls into question previous statement, though let's be honest, you've done little or nothing to make The United States of America better in any way and whatever collective "we" you imagine probably hasn't either...
Hope this feels like it was worth the 10 minutes I took to put it together at some point.
@@chrismanuel9768 you have to apply a fairly loose definition. The franchise is part-owned by Sony Pictures (via acquisition of UA / MGM) and by Eon, which is Albert Broccoli's production company now run by his daughter. They typically use Pinewood Studios as they have done from the start. It's Hollywood in the sense that Hollywood is the superlative for any blockbuster film, but the films predominantly are not produced or shot in Hollywood or, to put it better, the production and ownership of the films hasn't changed much ever.
@@jamesinc87 I believe Sony only has distribution rights, and even then only on a per film basis. They don't "own" the James Bond IP in any real sense.
I once got the "insta death" card in CODENAMES on my first turn 😂 The clue was "snow", and my stupid literary brain saw "uniform" and I immediately touched the card. That happened years ago and I can't get the stupid memory out of my brain!
I think it could make sense
have I seen this story before or should I stop looking at youtube at 2 AM
The opposite of this happened to me. My father once gave the clue "Gravity, 1". Words on the board included "Newton", the unit of measurement used for gravity, "Black Hole", the physical embodiment of gravity, and "Space", which was partially related to gravity. It was "Space". We ribbed on him for years following that.
Was he referring to the movie, Gravity, which occurs mostly in Space?
Newton is the unit of measurement for force. Gravity is measured in acceleration, meters per second squared.
All this reminds me of is the time I’ve played codenames over Discord with friends, and in the codemaster text chat on the website we were using, my friend was freaking out over his team overthinking “aerated - 3.”
Aerated, meaning - it has air in it. They got the first two clues pretty quickly, (blood and Atlantic), but then spent five minutes discussing what the last one could be: room.
The entire time, in text chat, all I can see: “Rooms have air. Rooms have air. ROOMS have air. Rooms HAVE air. Rooms have AIR. ROOMS HAVE AIR. ROOMS HAVE AIR. ROOMS HAVE AIR! ROOMS HAVE AIR!!!!!” For five minutes straight.
They were overthinking aerated was double for oxygen and were thinking of what other things might have oxygen. The entire time as they discussed: “ROOMS HAVE AIR. ROOMS HAVE AIR. ROOMS HAVE AIR.”
To be fair, just about anything has air. I know it's super obvious when you were the one giving the clue, or knew what the clue giver was thinking, but that sounds pretty far fetched (depending on the other words on the board of course).
If blood was aerated, you'd be dead. It's oxygenated. They're not synonymous. Your friend is lucky they were dumb enough to think blood is full of air.
What the hell connects "Atlantic" and "aerated"?
@@mastermarkus5307 The atlantic is made of water, which has air in it, I guess?
BLOOD DOESNT CONTAIN AIR
I love these board game skits, keep them coming!
The emphatic "WHAT?" after the Daniel Craig suggestion just gets me every time
I played codenames with my friends a couple weeks ago and this is exactly what happened…and the annoying person who made everyone second guess themselves was my husband. I was so mad at him. It was a simple effing clue.
Are you sure he was not just jerking your chain? xD
@@tominieminen66 nope. Sometimes he overthinks things. He tries to be clever in this game and will sometimes assume others to do the same.
@@magicianmana4 Yeah, sometimes trying to think too deeply can be a detriment :D
My teammate and I were doing great at this until the last word they had to make me guess was "virus". The Assassin tile, which causes instant loss if picked, was "disease". Their clue was "corvid", because "it sounds like COVID".
Isn't it explicitly against the rules to use "sounds like" style hints in the game? It's explicitly designed to avoid that problem.
@@holyknightthatpwns It's one of the "flexible rules".
Corvid. Crows. They could carry disease, but I would never call them a virus. They have ties to plague doctors. Plague. Disease. But not strictly to any virus.
Yeah, I'd go with disease over virus literally 100% of the time. What do Crows have to do with Viruses, after all?
Why not just use covid though?
@@HighSlayerRalton technically all board games rules are flexible rules
Once while playing this I was on a team with my sister, and we had one word left she needed to guess, “skin”
So I gave clues like “hand” “face” etc. and she could not get it. I was like????
We lost after three tries with that and I was like “it was skin??? Why didn’t you get that?!?”
Everyone looked at me very confused. And I pointed at the card like “SKIN???!?”
It was sink.
The word was sink.
Not skin.
Sink.
"Ohh, riiiight...."
Haha, wow, perfect impression.
I was once playing Pictionary with some friends. The closest they got to the word was “Mail house”.
The word was “Post Office”.
I was in physical pain.
I was playing a similar game with my sister. (It's called Concept, it's pretty fun. You don't need to know how it works to understand the story but it could help) My clue was Piggy Bank. I had got her to the words "pig" and "bank" and was furiously pointing between them and thank christ my mum came in to help when she did cause I couldn't handle much more "pig, bank, pig, bank, pig, what do you mean?"
Often times we had that situation during a Code Names session, where our hinter was able to let us pinpoint the wanted terms easily with the hint but also completely overlooked the assassin that was related to all of them in one way or another.
Good, tricky game though. There are many creative ways to approach it. It can be especially fun if your team members can vibe with you so well, so that you can work even with prompts related to your clique's insider jokes and other familiar friend-related buzzwords.
Glad to see the friend who's figuring it out as he goes is doing a great job
The hardest part of the game is not to make a face while your clue throws the others into discussions.
The secret is to make so many faces every second that you become completely unreadable.
Friends: Don't be thinking over
Me: more suck thinking
I swear some of these board games designers make these types of games to really test people's friendships!
I did not expect to find my experience playing Codenames to be portrayed so accurately, but here it is.
he was never seen again after that game
I hate it when you hear them talking about the word you need, and then they're like "nah, he wouldn't have thought of that!" 😂
Yuh-huh. I will admit to having done something along those lines once.
This is such a Code Names moment omg I have had this happen too many times. This game is especially difficult high.

having to re-teach this game to my parents after about a year of not playing and oh god,,, both your skits on it are so accurate 😭😭
Which is worse: This, or when your tm8 overthinks giving the hints?
As someone who just played this with the in-laws I can confirm this is a true event.
Thank you for making a relatable board game joke about one of the two board games I've played in my life.
Love the delivery for all of these lines
This is an accurate depiction of what happend when we played reception on new years eve and the investigators thought that "suffocation" means it was a Sniper shot
????? LITERALLY HOW
Incredibly accurate for code names
The timing is impeccable, I played Mysterium last night lol.
This is the EXACT mindset I see whenever I watch ChilledChaos and his friends play Codenames. Perfect. 😂
Same, but I usually watch Ze and I always feel so bad for him lmao. He gives the best clues and everyone just overthinks them.
I played codenames the other day and this happened as well, but my team made the biggest leaps of judgement to THE CORRECT CARDS. They didn't go through with it though, which was the right call, but it was agonizing because after that they did the same thing every round but to the advantage of the other team XD
And then those terms *happen* to be correct and you spend the rest of the game working with a teammate who thinks all your clues require a similar thought process and will never again consider "Cat" or "Bear"
God, I've never personally played Code Names, but there's some streamers I watch who ply it sometimes, and this is so true with some of the connections the guess-players make based on the the spymaster's hints.
this perfectly outlines EVERY codenames game i have played with my friends. i cant even tell you the amount of times something absolutely stupid happened while we played.
I quite literally just played code names with my family for the New Years and it went almost exactly like this.
My dad eventually was trying to go through every card one by one to see if there’s a connection XD

I can relate to this so much. I had a game, where I gave a really obvious clue. Can't remember what it was exactly, but something like "moist: 2" and there was water and juice on the board. My friend chose those two immediately, but then went on to say that my clues were "too on the nose" and chose something different. Motherfucker, they are supposed to be "too on the nose".
"Okay, I messed up, but you made your clues too complicated."
"All of the complications were made in your head!"
*Internal screaming because this is so ridiculously accurate*
The worst part is when, by sheer coincidence, the words they moon logic into are *also* words for your team, so they suffer no consequences for their stupidity.
Please keep doing these! I have been playing games with extended family and the play experience is just like this.
Thankfully whenever I played Code name and my teammates starting to look too deep into it, there would usually be someone to bring them back on the right track lol
I feel sooooooo personally attacked right now
Mammals do like to play games, especially educational ones! My cat for instance likes to test out new theories on velocity with many of my household objects.
*Provides clear clues*
