The question that Ender's Game begs:

Are Humans Ants compared to Aliens? What if there were an Alien Civilization of Ants?

Take the emphasis off of "Ender" and put it on "Game".

What if the Vacuum could be harnessed?

That's Persephone's Game.

"Scott leisurely leaned back in his chair with his arms arms crossed, the indentation of his left ankle so delicately resting atop his right knee. He smoothly swept his left leg to the ground, and, with a wry grin, uncrossed his arms, placing the palm of his right hand on top of his right knee while draping his relaxed fingers over the skin that protected their damaged internal cartilage; Scott brought his left thumb to rest under his chin and painted his left index finger horizontally over his calm lips. He furrowed his eyebrows and narrowed his stare.

With the lowering of his right eyebrow and the raising of his left, he brought his left hand from his over his mouth and swept the whole of it under his chin, then gesticulated a circle to form an open palm.

Lowering his head, he pierced EH3's consciousness and said "I challenge you to a game of Chess."

Philosophy of the Epic:

Aeneas: When things go wrong, complains to Gods, asks them for strength.

Odysseus: Outsmarts the Gods, and finds a clever solution.

Scott: Challenges his opponents to a contest of their favorite game.
