Hi, Slasher!

Here comes my collaboration
with some suggestions on image...

Forest Sharp Teeth
Allusion to the wildlife, beast or creature that inhabit it.

Moutain Head Cut

The mountain has a funny and bizarre format that justify the name.

( + http://www.greatdreams.com/Old-Man.htm )

Fiord Lonely Heart
Where a pirate or native made suicide because of a broken heart.

Hole Cheater
A dangerous and treacherous lava's hole.
The most likely origin of the name was associated with the ultimate words
said by the last person who stumbled and disappeared inside of molten lava:
"Holy sh ***** T !!!!:-D

I hope it was of some help.  ;-D

Bat Atoll Royale

In fact, I even think that the name of the island should be: Bat Atoll (It even kinda makes a Monkey Island reference with an animal name and a kind of island)...

And the game's name should be: Bat Atoll Royale

If the reference was missed then look HERE

It's my favorite Japanese (live-action) movie, and damn those new-fangled hungry, gamey ripoffs of it to HELL!!!

Personally, I really like this name for some reason even unknown to me!

My apologies in advance for making a comment off topic.

Hey, Mandle!
Spoiler

I have just watched Battle Royale.
The script definitely give it a great
game of adventure too.

Thanks for you and Cat to mentioning it!

I can see that you are a person immersed in Japanese culture. I would recommend to you (and whoever else is interested) 2 films that present a curious approaches about the japanese community of latin america. A fiction drama / live action set in the Japan and the other is a drama based on a true episode and sinister, held here in Brazil in the period of WWII.

If you already do not know them,
follow link to trailer and film found on youtube:

The first is called KAMIKAZE TAXI - :

Great tips, monkey424!
Especially the Shipwreck Café!

I think that i understand a little what you saying, Ahmed ... when I saw the fiord's image, where a man on a tightrope trying to pass an abyss from one side to another, immediately came to my mind a sense of longing and a certain desperation, is really touching.

Cheers for the links! I will have a look when I have the time!

Glad also you enjoyed Battle Royale, and yes it does have a rather adventure game feel to it I agree: With all the interesting "inventory items" (laugh)

Stupot

Battle Royale is also one of my favorite movies.  A glorious piece of film indeed.

As for island places, how about:
Siren Bay,
Cripple Rock,
Three Cock Gorge,
The Stepping Stones,
Papa's Seaman Soup Shack,
The Fools' Shortcut,
Beaver Head,
Stone Minge,
Etc

Tomb Rock
Cave of Lost Soldiers
Shark Beach
Mighty Shores
Shipwreck Horn
