White House removes from its 'site' controversial Tetris-inspired game

dnoticias.pt9 September 2026 at 06:05

The White House removed on Tuesday from its 'site' a controversial game that featured graphics very similar to those of the famous Tetris and a theme inspired by President Donald Trump's immigration policy.

The game, called "Build the Wall", was available on the White House 'site' since Thursday and invited players to build a wall on the border to defend themselves from "zombies", with the goal of "protecting the border from the approaching horde".

Although no specific location was mentioned in the game, the reference to building the wall and protecting the border suggests a direct connection to the immigration policies of the Trump administration.
