"Perfect" is never a word to use. It's a promise that no game can live up to. "Creative" is definitely out in this context.
"The Universal Roleplay Design" is weak because of the blandness of "the" and "Total Universal Roleplay Design" is worse. "Universal" kind of implies "total". "True Universal Roleplay Design." (?) Not bad, if I say so, myself.
When looking for the perfect word, I've found the old stand-bys still work: a dictionary, thesaurus, and a lot of time. I knew I wanted to go with Ə-OH, so I went through every O and H word in the dictionary, making note of any word that showed promise. "Obsequious"? Maybe. Unlikely, but maybe. "Obsessive"? Better. "Original"? No. Everyone knows my work is stale and derivative.
