I'm looking for a name for my game, currently dubbed EMP (Endless Maze Project)

The game takes place in a maze that is, for all intents and purposes, infinite. The environment is directly modifyable by all players, and you can interact with them through messages left for each other. However, you can never actually see the other players. It's kind of like the other players are ghosts to you, and you are to them.

I want the name to reflect this idea of being surrounded by other players but completely alone at the same time, but I'm drawing a blank.

@cartogram, take away the whole game-naming aspect of the question and you're left with a word request. That's within the scope of the site, IMO. :-) – Kristina Lopez Feb 24 at 17:24

Single words that can describe the sensation of not being alone, though not seeing another soul:

shadows, whispers, murmers, goosebumps, ghosts, specters
