Codenames: Bonus Pack – Schweiz

Description

"Ten new Switzerland-themed cards for Codenames" offers a flavorful expansion with evocative words drawn from Swiss landmarks, cuisine, culture, and stereotypes to spice up clue-giving and guessing. Key mechanics include: - *Word association gameplay* Players link clues to Switzerland-inspired terms like Alps, Chocolate, and Fondue without triggering the assassin. - *Themed immersion* Cards evoke Swiss identity through geography (Matterhorn, Geneva), products (Rolex, Cuckoo), traditions (Yodel, Neutral), and food (Rosti). - *Strategic depth* Neutrality allows broad or tricky clues; iconic terms like Swiss Army Knife demand precise, creative spymaster hints. - *Replayability boost* Integrates seamlessly into Codenames or Duet, refreshing sessions with cultural specificity and avoiding overlaps. - *Balanced design* Mix of proper nouns, objects, and concepts ensures fair difficulty for teams. This set introduces ten meticulously curated cards for Codenames—"Alps," "Chocolate," "Fondue," "Matterhorn," "Geneva," "Zurich," "Rolex," "Yodel," "Neutral," "Cuckoo"—each capturing Switzerland's alpine majesty, precision craftsmanship, culinary delights, political stance, and folkloric charm. Designed to enhance the core game's spymaster-guesser dynamic, these words demand inventive one-word clues (e.g., "mountain Matterhorn," "cheese Fondue") while risking misfires to opponents or the assassin card. The collection promotes thematic sessions, fostering discussions on Swiss neutrality amid global conflicts, chocolate supremacy, watchmaking excellence, and yodeling heritage, all while maintaining Codenames' tense, competitive wordplay without altering rules.
