Our game name: Zuma Seasons->Jungle Seasons->Izumas (current name) We changed the name on and on due to PopCap's PC game Zuma's Revenge, I guess many of you know it. But we don't want to confuse you with the name. So, any idea on new name for our game? If one is good enough to adopt, we will send out a gift. http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?p=1845628 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/izumas/id436310102?mt=8# Thanks Oye Faction Game Studio
Your thread title is unfair. Shouldn't have used the word "Zuma" in your game name in the first place instead of needing PopCap to "push" you to change the name.
Luxar, Puzzleloopy, Magentica, Sonic's Peggle Halo Mario Bros. 3: Revenge of Crash Bandicoot's Puzzle Fighter II
How about ... 'couldn't think up an original name so decided to raise sales by putting zuma in the title to attract fans of the real zuma'
It IS the real Zuma-style game, expanding the original idea in a way that elevates gaming experience. Thanks
But it's what the game's about?.... Here's a couple: The Eagle's Nest Tortoise Defense Turtle Rescue Fly Away Birdie Plants versus Zumas (okay, okay, I just had to go there )
No it isn't, it's a game in the same vein as Zuma/Luxor/Puzzloop but it doesn't give you the right to infringe of PopCap's trademark on the name Zuma. Why on Earth would you try to use two different variations of a copyrighted name if not to profit off the popularity of Popcap's original work? If they decide to sue you I'd say they have an irrefutable case and I would not screw around where EA's legal team is concerned.
I saw another game with "iZumas" in its title, lol http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/nature-izumas-online/id450795995?mt=8 And my opinions are Beat the Eagle, Tortoise Defense
