More than 2 teams at a time #105

My friends and I play this every tuesday and friday night. It's super fun but I think that enabling the game to allow for 3 or 4 teams would be a great option. I am interested in working on this but would love to collaborate with some other devs!

Seconded!

Hey, I'm currently implementing this in my fork, and I'd like to get a short feedback on what the implementation should look like.

Im planning to add a button to the main menu, where you can choose between 2, 3, and 4 teams. The playfield sizes could be as follows:

Im not sure whether 49 fields with 4 teams is too much, though. Also I'm not sure how to handle winning, as there is now more possible outcomes than just a winner and a loser.

I'll let you know as soon as it is implemented so that we can test what values yield good results.

That sounds great!! I look forward to testing it.

@bchampp @aklef Hey everyone, i finally have a version that supports 3 and 4 teams at a time. There is still some things to fix and some accessibility to check, but basically it works. You can check it out in my fork on branch more_teams: https://github.com/elsholz/codenames/tree/more_teams
