Overview

Sometimes, a game’s title is comprised of a single word, whether that be regular dictionary words, completely made up words, or even character names. Often this is done to give the name a sense of impact, or to highlight a core theme or character from the game. Alternatively, it can also happen when licensed games adopt the single-word title of the property they come from.
