While Mr. Monopoly<\/a> remains your real-estate go-to, Ms. Monopoly<\/a> is here to (literally) change the game. Instead of properties, the new game will feature inventions and historical innovations, ranging from scientific to everyday-practical, created by women. Did you know that wifi was invented by a woman? Betcha didn\u2019t! (Look up Hedy Lamarr.) No more building houses – it\u2019s time to build business headquarters!<\/p>\n

Hasbro<\/a> has also featured three teenage inventors- all girls – in their new campaign. They\u2019ve invested $20,580 in each of their inventions and future projects. 16-year-old Sophia Wang has invented a device to detect sinkholes. 16-year-old Ava Canney has invented a spectrometer to measure the levels of dye in soft drinks. And 13-year-old Gitanjali Rao has invented a device to detect the amount of lead in drinking water.<\/p>\n

According to Hasbro, Ms. Monopoly is a fun new take on the game that creates a world where women have an advantage often enjoyed by men. But don\u2019t worry, if men play their cards right, they can make more money too.<\/p>\n

A game that inspires girls of all ages to be the best they can be and change the world? Hasbro<\/a> is winning with this one. Check out the full video below to learn more about the game and the three amazing teen inventors.<\/p>\n
