I finally chose a title.
A Thousand Faces of Adventure
It was a hard slog and there were a lot of darlings I had to throw out, but I’m really excited about this name.
For one, it’s a play on “The Hero With A Thousand Faces”, which is Joseph Campbell’s flagship contribution to the study of myth and story structure.
It also does a good job of conveying certain aspects of this game. It’s a generic game, where the setting is discovered and created during play. By including “Adventure”, it sets the right expectation about genre. Finally it hints at the card-based components with “Faces”.
Equally important, the domain name 1kfa.com was available, and the only competing search result was the above-mentioned book.
The Dominion Caddy
The Catan Board
The Pips
The Robber
The Frame
The Tiles
Where can I get more info about your game? I tried to download the play test version but I couldn’t get it to extract the files on my iPad. Any suggestions?

Is there a difference in the complete download and the individual PDFs?
Thanks,
