Codenames: Critical Role Adventures is a unique take on Codenames inspired by the Critical Role universe. It reimagines the classic mechanisms of Codenames in a fresh way, creating a whole new Codenames experience.

The game is fully cooperative, with one player taking on the role of Game Master (GM) and giving clues to their party members as they lead them through perilous missions toward the final boss. Players can journey through three separate campaigns, each consisting of multiple branching missions. Every mission features its own goals and rules that modify the standard Codenames gameplay, requiring the GM and their party to adapt and think differently to overcome each challenge.

The party chooses three of seven iconic Critical Role characters to embark on the adventure. The base game introduces Vex (and Trinket), Percy, Grog, Jester, Nott, Dorian and Fresh Cut Grass. Players can mix and match these heroes before every new campaign, with different combinations resulting in distinct gameplay styles.

Playable heroes have their own cardboard miniatures that are placed on the words during guessing. Each hero also has personalized abilities that unlock as players collect XP from successful missions, and they can equip items purchased along the way. Every character has their own character sheet for tracking XP, HP, character progression and items. A D20 is also included, as characters must pass their own unique skill checks to determine how successfully their abilities are executed.

A Vox Machina expansion pack is also released alongside the base game. It contains more words and items, as well as one playable character to add to adventures in Exandria.
