==Title== Formally, the title of the game is just "'''9'''", as shown on the box cover. However, the title "''The Last Resort''" is also displayed on the packaging in different locations, leading most people to refer to the game as "''9: The Last Resort''". Although the game never uses the two names together, it also does not consistently use one of them. For example, the game's executable is called "Nine", but the game's data folders are prefixed with "LR". The title is always written as '9', the numeral, not the word (except in some of the game's files). The name "''9''" refers to the nine [[muse]]s which inhabit the resort (from Greek mythology). The muses are represented by various characters in the game. The name "''The Last Resort''" is the title of the building in which the game is set. It is a luxury hotel which belonged to a man called Thurston Last, but is also a [[pun]] on the term "[[last resort]]". The title paves the way for endless numbers of puns on the name "Last", which are made throughout the game.
