    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.

    I think the thread title must be changed to this... "We managed to troll Popcap"

    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

    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 think pop cap should take you to court and get your game banned from
    The app store

    How about instead of trolling the OP, you suggest some names he could use.
