Client brief
It's a new match-3 game with elements of city building and a well-developed quest scheme. It will be much similar to Cradle of Empires (https://itunes.apple.com/US/app/id738480930) gameplay but with some structural differences in game mechanics.
The main idea is not city building itself, but match 3. The events take place in a ruined town, which looks similar to a farming town of the 70s-80s of the 20th century. Everything looks time-worn as if have been abandoned thousands of years ago. The entire place is covered with thick fog (clouds). So as you restore the town (by completing tasks-quests), the fog goes away.
- The title can directly or indirectly indicate the main gameplay (macth-3 + city builder)
- The title CAN'T be an empty cliché and sound like old-fashioned hidden object games
- The title CAN'T be undisguised SEO aimed (for example, "Match-3 City Builder"). However, keywords used in combination with other words can be acceptable.
- The title should contain two or three short and widely used words. The title should contain 16-18 symbols in total. 12-14 symbols is even better.
- The title CAN'T be a bold replica or copy of famous titles. It's important the title is unique (there are no games with this title at the stores)
An example of a good title (in our opinion) is Hay Day (https://itunes.apple.com/app/hay-day/id506627515?mt=8) Because: - It's short, easy to remember, and easy to pronounce - Word "Hey" indirectly, still precisely, indicates the theme/genre of farming - "Heyday" word has a lot of positive meanings (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/heyday)

Tips for choosing a great business name
Keep it pronounceable
A good business name should be easy to say out loud and spell from memory. If you have to spell it out every time you say it, it will slow down word-of-mouth growth.
.com still beats clever TLDs
Despite hundreds of new extensions, .com remains the most trusted TLD for professional brands. Customers default to typing .com - pick a .com name whenever possible.
Avoid trademark traps
Before you register, run a quick trademark search to make sure the name is clear in your industry. Similar names in the same category can lead to costly disputes later.
Test it in a sentence
Say "I work at [name]" or "Check us out at [name].com" out loud. The name should sound natural, confident, and memorable in everyday conversation.
