The White House launched an arcade. Tetris was not amused. One game has already been pulled.

Insert coin. The White House launched arcade.gov this month: five retro browser games that remix classics to promote the administration's agenda. 'Flappy Bill' has a bald eagle flying legislation over the National Mall. 'Trump Savings Tycoon' has you catching falling cash for your kids' Trump Accounts. 'Supply Line' is a Tapper-style game about sorting school lunches to 'Make America Healthy Again' standards. 'Rio Run' is a Snake-style border patrol game. The plot twist: 'Build the Wall,' a Tetris knockoff, came down after the company behind Tetris raised concerns, according to The Hilltop and Telegraph India. Border-rights groups criticized the immigration games, and the White House called the whole thing 'policy you can interact with,' promising new games weekly. The internet reaction was exactly what you'd expect. Whether you think it's brilliant trolling or a bit much, you have to admit it's the first federal website anyone has voluntarily spent 20 minutes on. Meme HQ question: what classic game should get the government treatment next? Keep it clean and keep it funny.
