Build the Wall, Rio Run: White House launches 5 video games promoting Trump agenda

The White House has unveiled Arcade, a set of five low-resolution games tied to Donald Trump's agenda. The collection turns border policy, food standards and child savings into playable political messaging.

In Short

• One title recasts Tetris as a border barrier-building game for players
• Another mimics Snake, with a Trump-like figure collecting border crossers
• Supply Line asks players to reject food failing health standards

The White House website on Thursday unveiled “Arcade,” a collection of five low-resolution video games that promote different aspects of President Donald Trump’s agenda, as reported by the news agency AP.

One of the games, “Build the Wall,” is a “Tetris” knockoff that turns the classic game into an effort to “Protect the border from the coming horde.” Another game, “Rio Run,” resembles the mobile favourite “Snake,” with an icon resembling Trump running around and gathering potential border crossers.

“Supply Line” resembles a condensed version of the arcade game “Tapper.” In the game, food moves along an assembly line, and players must reject items that do not meet “Make America Healthy Again” standards.

Two other games take place over the skies of the nation’s capital.

In “Flappy Bill,” an eagle carries a bill across the National Mall. In “Trump Savings Tycoon,” players must collect money flying through the air to “Fill your kids’ Trump Accounts,” the administration savings plan that offers $1,000 to every child born during Trump’s term.
