Where Did You Get These Titles? So Good

I have to say, the titles for this game jam are ridiculously good. Like, I could just run with one of these titles for 90% of them. The titles alone are gold.

How did you make them? Did you just throw a list of Appendix N words in the grammar blender and see what poured out?

I’m pretty sure lex came up with them all.

Thanks!

I wrote 550 of them myself and relied on submissions for the rest.

My procedure was to bring up lists of the actual Appendix N titles, multiple thesaurus’s, lists of mythological places, figures, and things. Then puzzle over all of that to come up with titles. I also tried to keep in mind that the title should be able to be interpreted in multiple ways to give the writers flexibility.

Also I had to envision it on a 70s book cover lol
