- Last week, the White House launched Arcade.gov with five web-based games promoting President Trump’s agenda.
- The Tetris clone “Build the Wall” carried an anti-immigrant message and challenged players to protect the border.
- One day later, The Tetris Company distanced itself, denied involvement, and indicated that legal action might follow.
- Only four games are now visible on Arcade.gov; it remains unclear whether The Tetris Company formally acted.
The Tetris Company was not involved in the creation of 'Build the Wall'. We take copyright infringement very seriously.— Tetris said in a statement posted to its official social media accounts.
