Help me name my game!

Post by Loki on Fri May 28, 2010 12:50 pm

For the past year (with a lot more emphasis on the past few weeks) I have been working on a Table-Top Modern Zombie Survival Game inspired by several zombie movies, but mostly Max Brooks' World War Z and The Zombie Survival Guide. It will be played similar to D&D, with several aspects from the Fallout series, and many things from here and there. As it stands now, the Character Sheet is 95% complete, the classes have been decided upon and await testing, the combat system is planned out and passed several trial runs, weapons and armor are in the testing/balancing process. All in all, I think we are about 33% of the way to a beta test.

This game will be quite versatile and will have several classes of zombies, or other infected manifestations, to choose from. There will also be non-infected enemies such as raiders, feral animals, and even diseases that pose as much of a threat to the players as the living dead. The game will allow to play as either a civilian or soldier trying to either survive the zombie apocalypse, try to defend their fortifications, or try to take back their homes; all determined by how the GM wishes to run the game. I am designing this game so that it stands a chance to get published and distributed to the masses one day.

The problem is that I have yet to think of a name that I love. Here are some of the criteria I am looking for:

-Relatively short, but more than one word.
-Catchy.
-Is not trademarked/copyrighted. (duh.)
-Gives some indication what to expect from the game, but coyly so.
-Is not the title to a popular zombie movie.

Please help me! All submissions will be considered, so don't hold anything back!

Well...

All my ideas turned out to be taken :/

I started thinking off the top of my head and came up with.

Reign of the Dead

The Dead and the Dying

and

Dying to Live


I googled them, and turns out someone beat me to them. I'll keep thinking for you Wink

Dang that is difficult. The only thing I could come up with that isn't copyrighted is "Zombflesh". If you could incorporate that in a phrase that best describes the game it could be cool, cause it would be yours. You probably hate it though Razz

Infection could be a good word to work with.
