Battle fat cats and mudslingers in this vintage Bernie Sanders video game

[Electric Monk]

Bernie Sanders has his very own computer game, and it has all the quirky liberal flair that his supporters have come to expect. The game, "Bernie Arcade," features the Vermont senator and Democratic presidential candidate dodging the threats of the "extreme right wing" by firing off "fact sheets" from his hydrogen powered bi-plane. Naturally, Sanders' other obstacles in the game include "mudslingers," "big money special interests," and "fat cats."

Though Sanders' campaign created the game back in 2006 during his Senate race, the web archive has kept it alive and ready to play for his presidential race.
