Walking down the street you notice something has changed. You take out your phone hastily, to check the available properties around you. Yes! There they are! New shares and you're the first one to get them. You don't think twice, cause you know you must have them! It's not the first time when on your way to work you come across such valuable finds.  We're all part of this virtual map. With more than 3 billion mobile devices on the planet today, trillions of data trails are left behind unused. Now you can enjoy this mixture of digital and real world in the Landlord GO game.

Landlord Go is a brand new game by Reality - that leverages these digital "footprints" in a fun and exciting way, allowing players to buy, sell, and collect rent on some of the world's most famous buildings and landmarks. With over 1 million players worldwide, it's the first real-world augmented reality game that uses real buildings, real people, and real prices to turn your city into an action-packed strategy game. With more than 92340 players already making deals for virtual ownership of the more than 467 559 in London already, there's no shortage of fierce competition ready for action.

Landlord Go is incredibly accurate, reflecting real-world values of properties using details like distance from the city center and building amenities. By using our own data set combined with NASA satellite scans showing nighttime light emissions, we've created one of the most realistic and data-driven property dealing games ever conceived.
