To answer your question, yes this exists.

The website “Thanks Obamacare,” a project of ProgressNow Colorado and Colorado Consumer Health Initiative includes an online board game, The Game of Obamacare.

The game, modeled after The Game of Life, is strikingly reminiscent of “The Life of Julia,” the project developed by the Obama campaign in 2012. Unlike the Healthcare.gov website, however, this site actually works.

Here’s a glimpse of what you see during “The Game of Obamacare.”

“How DARE they make me choose between a male & female character! I spit on traditional gender rolls.” – Every radical feminist ever.

Note the “Happiness Meter,” dependent not upon your actual happiness, but rather upon whether or not you make the life choices deemed “correct” by the makers of the game.

Let’s risk it.

Well this should be interesting.

I chose “Without Obamacare,” and this happened.

The front page of thanksobamacare.org previews what would have happened had I chosen “With Obamacare.”

Seems like the folks over at “Thanks Obamacare,” need to read up on Congress’ health care subsidies. Members of Congress will have to purchase insurance from the Obamacare exchanges, but will also receive cushy contributions to their plans from the federal government.

So, Senator Reid gets relief from the higher premiums expected to result from Obamacare, but the single mother down the street will not. Thanks Obamacare?

Here’s how the game ended. During my “life,” I won tickets to the Super Bowl, had a child, adopted a puppy, went to college, and opened a small business. Yet, my character “isn’t feeling so great?” Likely, this is a result of my choosing to face a life decision “With Obamacare,” only once during the game. I chose to forgo the ACA several other times.

Clearly, Obamacare should be the *key* indicator of happiness during one’s life. Ok then.
