Not sure which rock I live under, but I've never heard of this game.

You definitely aren’t alone… maybe they should’ve spent even more money on marketing? Lol

I suspect you aren’t the target audience.

Most mobile game marketing is done with ads in other free-to-play mobile games. Unless you play those types of games regularly, you’re unlikely to come across it.

I don’t touch any game I can’t pay for in full once and be done. So I know I’m not the target audience.

Me neither. Kinda ironic that the first time is about an article about its marketing. Given that it is "Free" to Play and a mobile game I'll continue to stay the fuck away from it though.

So, this game is a cross between Monopoly and Go?

In all seriousness, I'm struggling to figure it out. I thought it might be an Ingress-style game which could be interesting for the Monopoly IP, but the Wikipedia page makes it clear that's not the case, without being clear enough to understand what it is.
