Yes, Alexei (aka Bent Spoon Games) and I talked about the name recently; to promote its use in university courses teaching Bayesian statistics, we’re sticking with Credence Game. Confidence means something slightly different in statistics, and the game is meant to teach not just calibration, but also the act of measuring belief strength itself. The name update on BSG, and in the app itself as downloaded from there, will happen soon enough.
Confusingly, this game has at least three titles:
The Credence Game (your website)
Calibration Game (Bent Spoon Games’ website + the iOS app store)
Confidence Game (inside the app itself: “Welcome to the Confidence Game!”)
