Mad #230

In "Video Games Based on Real Life," Dave Berg turns his sharp eye to the absurdities of everyday life in a series of wry, observational gags that stretch from morning routines to awkward reunions. With his signature deadpan wit and clean, precise art, Berg finds humor in the mundane—like business calls, punctuality, and the eternal struggle of sharing a room with a sibling. The cover by Bob Clarke perfectly captures the issue’s playful, satirical spirit.
