A game name should not be modeled after the genre, you should take into account the specifics of the game and come up with a name that fits. What if the Final Fantasy (though ironically named) was named First Fantasy, Second Fantasy, etc.? It just wouldn't be the same.

A game name means absolutely nothing. Literally. I chose the name "Epic" for my game 'cause that's just what I wanted to convey the game as being so more users would become interested.
It is generally a bad idea to pick awkward names based on random words nobody understands good names instantly tell the user what the game is about and what they should expect, part of a first impression. Overall this doesn't have much of an effect though(unless you name your game awkwardly) good examples: minecraft(you mine, and craft) NEStalgia(an nostlagic NES inspired game) League of Legends(its just a kind of cool way to say, "groups of people fighting each other" without explicity saying it or saying it in a way that is hard to understand) The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim(debatable, but the long name implies it is a deep RPG which you can expect a lot of story from, and it delivers.) | |

A game name may not mean much to the game, but the game means much to the game name. Naming NEStalgia Minecraft would not be fitting. Therefore, back to my original point, you must take the game into account. League of Legends would not fit with a game about rival gangs fighting each other.

You should totally make that an actual DM program people can download and generate game names from, Yut. I think the anime crowd would actually use it, lmao.
Also, you forgot "revenge of" in the phrase category. | |

TBH, I'd play something called "Fight Game". The sheer simplicity of that title would pretty much force me to at least try it out.
