The Trump White House launched an online arcade on its website, featuring several games designed with a nostalgic pixel art aesthetic. This release follows previous instances where the administration used video game imagery and memes in its messaging, such as social media ads referencing "Halo" and "Pokémon."
The arcade includes games like "Flappy Bill," a version of "Flappy Bird" where players control an eagle with a scroll. "Supply Line" is a game about sorting junk food from a conveyor belt. More politically charged titles include "Build the Wall," a "Tetris"-like game focused on fortifying the southern border, and "Rio Run," a "Snake"-like game involving patrolling the Rio Grande. Another game, "Trump Savings Tycoon," involves collecting bills and gold coins.
The games are presented as a continuation of the administration's strategy to use gaming culture for political communication. The content of some games, particularly "Build the Wall" and "Rio Run," directly incorporates political themes related to immigration and border control.
