Sorry this might be old but I need to correct you there, first, there are many different types of poly relationships and yes what you describe is one of them but the base of poly is: you are free to pursue a meaningful relationship(not just sex) with other people and so is your partner it doesn't require all of the people involved to be with each other, and the rules for that can vary as well, but normally if you are not a closed polycule you can pursue relationships outside of it.Actually both imply everyone knows about all the components. Otherwise it's just cheating.
Also, the second one: that's not a poli relationship what you describe, that's an open relationship. You're confused because you don't have all the correct info.
A poli relationship means being there not just for one element of the group but for all of them. Everyone is everyone's else boyfriend/girlfriend in the relationship but they can't just go with other people external to the circle willy nilly.
Now that I said all that I have to take a look at this game since there is actually a poly relationship.
