I found this looking for the 2002 game (I thought I remembered it too well for it to be a 1990 game) and only found Project Nomads (with an 's') through a google search. This game is under nomad's disambiguous page, so why shouldn't the newer one be as well?

IIRC, this game was released in the US under the title "Nomad." I happen to own it and the box lacks "project." (Lendorien, NSI) --76.236.132.62 (talk) 03:18, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I got this game about 10 years ago in Gametek's "Quest for Knowledge Collection" box set (featured alongside "Elite 2: Frontier" and "Humans - The Jurassic Levels" on Floppy and CD versions), which, while the box is localized to German, can mostly be regarded as UK and/or international versions. Throughout the manual, on the box, on the media, even in the included Readme file, the game is referred to as merely "Nomad" - never "Project Nomad". Project Nomad is obviously the name of the Nomad project (duh...) within the game story context, not the name of the game itself. Which is why the term "Project Nomad" appears on the manual cover page as if the manual was a secret document, as a part of the story. Unless someone shows me a box art or intro screenshot that indeed says "Project Nomad", I call bogus and hearsay on the name. This game is called "Nomad", *not* "Project Nomad". Similarly, speaking of the manual, the "Widow Son" name as pointed out in the article appears on that manual cover/"secret document" as well. It quite clearly does not imply this would be the player's name, it merely serves as a nondescript secret cover name for a protagonist ("To: Widow Son; From: First Eye; Re: Project Nomad"). Quite the opposite of the protagonist's true name, in other words. I think the article got that wrong for now. 91.33.253.144 (talk) 07:48, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Project Nomad" seems to have been the original name in the UK. CFLeon (talk) 23:58, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I came here looking for the robotics project, any chance of that being here soon? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.215.76.233 (talk) 02:57, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Koroks in this game have nothing to do with the Koroks in The Legend of Zelda

I've noticed that the word Korok in this article keeps getting linked to the Wikipedia entry on The Legend of Zelda characters which includes it's own species that also happen to be called Koroks. The Koroks in The Legend of Zelda have nothing to do with the Koroks in Nomad and are not even similar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Donkyhotay (talk • contribs) 18:51, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
