To celebrate Ms. Monopoly's launch, Hasbro surprised a group of female inventors with $20,580 in actual money to go toward their projects. The amount happens to to be the same total money featured in a typical Monopoly game.

Twitter users had mixed feelings on the game, with some appreciating its message and others upset with how female players will collect more money than male players when passing \"Go.\"

\"They’re instilling in young girls that society views them ‘less than,'\" one user wrote.

\"I'd rather play equally & fairly with all players regardless of gender,\" another said.

\"I'm extremely disappointed that Ms. Monopoly looks like a regular lady in a blazer and not a gilded age heiress,\" one woman tweeted.
