Molyneux’s Curiosity App Gets Renamed

August 24, 2012 by Jen Shaffer

NASA beat him to the punch.

Yesterday, Peter Molyneux revealed that the name of his new project was in direct conflict with the NASA Mars Rover, Curiosity. His new studio, 22 Cans, has been working on this project for only a brief period of time, but came out with an official announcement trailer just a few days ago.

Molyneux explained through his Twitter account that Curiosity would have to be summed up in another word "because of NASA" and opened up suggestions to the Twitterverse. As new names were collected, he suggested that those interested in his new project follow the 22 Cans Twitter account as Curiosity was in its "final days of design."

After an office poll, the chosen name was "Curiosity: What's Inside the Cube." After hearing the title, I can't help but imagine Brad Pitt shouting, "What's in the box? What's in the box?!" Molyneux then expressed his hilarious interest in calling the project "Cube of Duty." If you can come up with a better name, feel free to post it here. Maybe Peter will see it and be inspired in the final hours of the design phase.
