As if the world couldn't be more about Barack Obama right now, the gaming world has embraced his arrival as well.

Casual gaming developers have taken their chance to pay a bit of a tribute to the new President elect of the USA.

Super Obama World certainly looks, as well as sounds like the classic SNES game Super Mario World, but as you'd expect, the game has been altered and filled with a shed load of funny references.

Players take up the role of Obama, and must collect American flags while avoiding political lobbyists and Republican vice-president candidate Sarah Palin.

Developers Zensoft have said it will add further chapters to the free game as Obama’s career in the White House progresses.
