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.

You mean sponsorbrock and rev... reboulderced. Nailed it.

FUCK rockvanced was right there!

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.

The Monopoly name is enough to do that for me.

Monopoly itself can be lots of fun.
