Inkulinati

A comment on the concept, and the name

Still just in my wishlist, each time I look at this game I get one step closer to folding and spending money I probably shouldn't at the moment. I love the look of marginalia, and a strategy game based on them is just too good to pass up (but my willpower remains sufficient for now to not give in). I anticipate adding the fifth star when I actually get and play the game. As for Esmaga's and reseme's comments on the name - it only sounds like it should be rude because of its resemblance to inculati (which I decline to translate). The (probably obsolete) Italian word inculinati means 'in a cradle' (of babies obviously). I wonder if there is an identical Latin word meaning 'in the margins' - which would fit this game perfectly and explain why it's called Inkulinati, with k as a play on 'ink'. The name is as out of the box as the game itself.
