Scrolls Will Be Scrolls

[Mar 11, 2012, 12:58 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Mojang Website announces the lawsuit over whether Mojang's could name a game Scrolls in light of Bethesda Softworks' trademark for The Elder Scrolls. It turns out they will use the name, but are not challenging the trademark, which sounds like it was an amicable solution:

We have settled the lawsuit over Scrolls and Mojang and Bethesda are friends again.

To answer the big question – yes Scrolls is still going to be called Scrolls.

To answer the second question – we aren’t going to keep the trade mark.

For us this was never about a trade mark but being able to use Scrolls as the name of our game which we can – Yey.

Scrolls is still a forgettably generic crap name and I don't see why Notch fought so hard to use it. It's like naming your game "Beige".
