Well, when you think about it, it makes sense. It’s a versatile and cool sounding word format or whatever you call it. You can use it for literal stuff, such as Titanfall, where robots fall from the sky or comets or whatever. But also in a collapse kind of thing, like here. And fallen civilizations and apocalypses are a popular themes, so…
Another entry in the long running “-fall” series of games.
(For real, it’s weird how so many game have “fall” in their name if you start paying attention to it. Everything be fallin’.)
-fall seems to have taken over from -craft

A few years ago I think I’d agree, but I feel like at this point it’s a super lazy naming scheme, to be honest.
Don’t have a good name? Just slap “-fall” on the end of some noun.
Nounfall
Not to be confused with the german -fall game No Unfall.
Not to be confused with the Soulsborne edutainment game Nounfall.
Good genre name tbh.
Guysfall
Redfall was trash, checks out
Risefall
It almost sounds like “Autumn Fall”
Kind of like -ly and -hub in domain names, or -kit in software libraries? :)
