Codenames (Arabic)

Twenty-five word cards lie in a five-by-five grid. Two teams each have a spymaster who holds a key card showing which words belong to each side and which single word is the assassin. Touch all of your words first and you win; touch the assassin and you lose on the spot. A spymaster's clue is one word and a number, such as "sea: 2", and teammates then point at cards one at a time. A correct pick lets them continue; a wrong one ends the turn. The game is in the clue, and a spymaster who reaches too far is the one everyone remembers. This is the Arabic-language edition: the word cards are in Arabic, so the wordplay happens in Arabic too. It is the copy we bring to family gatherings and corporate sessions where not everyone reads English comfortably. Same fifteen-minute game, same three-minute teach, up to eight players.
