Very interesting. I wonder if @Rahdo has tried this variant?

You could also include the dice guessing an agent of your team by dicing it again after hitting blank and getting 1 Dont know if english is correct, dont bother to

I like your code name cheat! Might have been better with a 3 on the die no? You must have considered it and decided not?

[@TheMountainGamer]

I did consider that, but I found that to simulate what it was like to play against a human team, 2 right answers (i.e. 2 pips on the die) was the way to go. That being said, if you and your group are suuuuuper good at the game, you could make one of the die sides a 3! ...Let me know if you try it out! :)

Still don’t get it ... wish you would play with two people so I can see what you are talking about

[@TheMountainGamer]

Let's say you and your buddy are the "Red" team. *You* are the clue-giver, your *buddy* is the clue-guesser. You play your turn normally, covering up words with Red agants if your buddy guesses right, etc. ....Then.... when it would be your adversary's turn, you simply roll the die: the value you get on the die represents the number of *Blue words* to cover up with Blue Agent cards. So, that means if you rolled a "2", you'd look at the small colored chart and you'd decide which two *Blue words* you'd like to cover up with Blue Agents. Once that's done, you go back to playing the game normally: it's now your team's turn (Red) -- you are still the clue-giver, and your buddy is still the clue-guesser. So... you do this over and over, and if you manage to have your team (Red) guess all of their words before all the *Blue words* are covered up by Agents, you win!
