The Name Game


Possible names and themes for my board game:

Initialoetry - an expansion of my own online in-blog creation
Monopoludo - a weird hybrid mash-up of two existing ideas
Dig the Dog - some kind of ’identify the dog breed’ card-based shenanigans mixed with an element of ’chase the cat round the board.’  
Go for the Burn - an arsonists dream. With a touch of Trivial Pursuit.
Elementary - a quest to collect all the elements from the Periodic Table, while also having your knowledge of them tested.

I think the last one is definitely the one I might explore further. Completely original, lots of scope for some interesting questions, and something that I know enough about already to make a start without committing to months of research.

Or - here’s a revelation that I’m literally having as I’m typing this… Why not use the title of todays blog? Make a board game all about people’s monikers and where they come from and people who have similar handles and so forth and call it THE NAME GAME???
Brilliant!
