Between printing mix-ups and our new relaunch plan, we can't seem to catch a break. After discovering existing trademarks for the name "Office Politics" (whoops, guess I should've checked on that sooner), we're preemptively doing some CYA and changing the name of the game.
The caveat: I'm running low on creative juices these days, as you'll see from the list below, so I need some help. Here are the ideas I've put down on paper so far, for better or for worse:
Undercut, Inc.
Corporate Warfare
Climb the Ladder
Office Treachery
Corporate Duplicity
Bigwig Scrimmage
Who’s the Influencer
Panjandrum
Corporate Ascent
CEO Material
Pretty plain to see that I need some help. Hence, an announcement for a Naming Contest!
The Objective: Come up with a quippy, catchy title for our satirical office politics-themed game. Main mechanics include bluffing and cooperation with the possibility of sabotage.
Deadline: Monday May 10, 2021 | 12PM CST. Winner will be announced by 8PM CST the same day, along with any honorable mentions.
Prize: Winner will receive card game "Coup", its accompanying expansion "Reformation" (this is a great game of secret identities and bluffing that provided inspiration for "Office Politics") and a free copy of the game you've helped to name upon successful funding on Kickstarter!
Also, bragging rights.
How to Enter: Submit your ideas to this form. You may enter more than once!
Looking forward to seeing your creative suggestions!
