The Trump administration launched an online 'arcade' website that included a game called 'Build the Wall,' which involved stacking blocks to prevent a 'zombie border siege.' The game was widely criticized as a racist Tetris ripoff, and the Tetris Company publicly stated it takes copyright infringement 'very seriously.' Within days of the arcade's launch, the White House quietly removed the game from its site. The removal came without an official explanation, though it followed mounting criticism and the Tetris Company's public statement suggesting legal action was being considered. The episode drew attention to the administration's use of gaming imagery for political messaging.
