I do not know if this is normal or not but whenever i close all chrome tabs I see this, what do I do? Is it malicious?

I have closed it out a bunch of times but keeps coming back
After looking at it for a bit, I would say it is. Since a piece of malware or something else could be opening that without you knowing. All the reviews are 5 stars and there are so few reviews, this makes me thing that either it's really well made and people love it except it's not popular, or someone made a few fake accounts to mislead people. I would highly recommend that you don't install it because the reviews aren't verified and there's exactly 60,000 users, which seems like it would be some bot who had done it. It is most likely malicious and/or something that will siphon money from you with microtransactions, so my advice is to not install it.
Why does it keep popping up when I close all chrome tabs (FIXED, i think)
Also, from my interest side, if you download one of these things and then delete right after what would happen
I'm not familiar with this specific malware, so I did some research.
I found an article specifically about that Popup blocker, but they recommend ComboCleaner which I find to be a bit suspect in of itself. They do offer manual removal instructions though, which might be worth trying.

Something that I find to be more reputable and that might help would be adwcleaner from Malwarebytes.

Let me know if either of these help cleanse the issue.
