Codenames
Codenames is a word association game played on a 5x5 grid of word cards. Each team has a spymaster who provides single-word clues followed by a number, indicating how many words on the grid relate to the clue. The operatives, seated opposite the spymasters, discuss and guess the words based on these clues. Once an operative selects a word, the spymaster reveals if it belongs to their team, the opponent, is neutral, or is the assassin. Guessing an opponent's word ends their turn, guessing a neutral word ends the turn without penalty, and guessing the assassin results in an immediate loss. The game involves strategic thinking and careful word association, aiming to identify all words of one's team while avoiding the assassin. The team that successfully identifies all their words first, or avoids the assassin while making correct guesses, wins the game.

Cheat
Deal the whole deck out. Players take turns discarding cards face down while announcing them in rising order: "two threes," "one four," "three fives." The catch — you may lie. Any player who suspects a lie calls "Cheat!" and flips the discarded cards: if the claim was false, the liar picks up the entire pile; if it was true, the accuser does. First player to empty their hand honestly (or dishonestly) wins. A brilliant introduction to bluffing for family groups.
