The whole thing was just publicity bait, which they got loads of.

pretty much

outrage culture in the other direction is still outrage culture

bunch of marks think they're in a culture war

Oh boy, I can't wait to wrongfully accuse my male friends of sexual assault and make them sit in jail while I get RICH!!!!!!!!


EDIT: Just putting in this preemptive edit before someone inevitably cannot detect the sarcasm.

"You stopped on the same spot as a female player. Go to jail for harassment."

"If the person reading the rules of the game is male he goes to jail for mansplaining"

 

[InterMusketeer]

"The first game where women make more than men"

What the hell are they even talking about? Monopoly never discriminated against females when I played, player gender (previously) had no bearing on the game.

Apparently women and girls have never in the history of life on earth earned more in a game of monopoly than a man or boy. The only way to get that to happen is to make a different version of the game. It was necessary.

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

There was a recent version of Monopoly making fun of socialism, I think this is just a joke.

 

[bitbydeath]

the box art is too perfect. She's ready to seize the day with her pumpkin spice latte and you know she's serious cause she's got her hand on her hip and her trendy t-shirt under blazer combo.

bonus:

Clearly a gold digger since Mr Monopoly is twice her age.

It's not a joke.

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

I'm not saying it isn't a real game, just that the intent is a joke.

I don't think so.

Dude, watch this and then tell me again if you think they think it's a joke.

You go girls!

I’d probably play russian roulette rather than a board game for hours with feminists.

Not much difference, you run the risk of killing yourself via rape accusation if you spend hours with feminists.

So hasbro pulled the one that makes fun of communism and then releases this? What a bunch of tards.

 

[lock2k]

Shitty marketing. They missed the opportunity to call it Womanopoly.

ps: what a shitty ass game.

 

[lock2k]

9.4 thousand dislikes and only 500+ likes. Deactivated comments. Ay lmao.

It makes me wonder if Hasbro is actually trolling.

 

[Chairman Tickles]

Statistically the appointed banker in monopoly almost always won, because the banker would steal notes. Just like in the real world.

 

[Halo is Back]

Nothing spells EQUALITY like a handicap for women in a game

The

So do women start with the 'Get out of Jail Free' card too?

They already get that in real life

 

[TheGreatYosh]

I would rather play this version. I would talk so much shit if I won.

 

[Constant Flux]

Women want every advantage they can get over men these days. It’s not about being equals anymore.

 

[Anki]

This will backfire badly for Hasbro

 

[Weilthain]

Don’t hate on women for this, that’s what they want you to do.

Men and woman make a good team. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I am so fucking deep today

This is hilarious though.

 

[buizel]

I mean it's pretty real to life - women are often handed more money and opportunities than men just for being women.

 

[mcz117chief]

Lol, this is 100% a troll just like all the previous ones. It will vanish rather quickly though, Monopoly and board game collecting is a serious business.

That's not quite my observation.
I'm glad it's a discussion nowadays, but making a game of it is a disservice to everyone.

Lol I can’t believe this was made and sold

And now that it’s been pulled, it’s selling on the collector’s market. Yay socialism

This actually looks kinda cool. Very clever idea and approach.

Monopoly in 2019, lul.

Yeah unlike the wamen version with its super lame, obviously lopsided and nonsensical premise. (If life is harder on women shouldn’t they get LESS money?) the socialism version uses actually meaningfully twists on the game mechanics to push the point it’s making.

The mistake on the socialism version is that the box looks like it’s pro socialism, which means a lot of salt. (Just read the amazon reviews, lol)

They also get most of the money in real life too. Pretty sure women spend more than men do so men must be giving them some of their money.

There should be a divorce game where the men get most of the money and women get the disadvantage of having their lives screwed.

Women control 70% of household income. According to a slide I saw while sitting in a meeting with TJX (TJ Maxx)
