The White House recently launched an 'arcade' section on its official website, which included a game titled 'Build the Wall.' The game required players to stack blocks to stop a 'zombie border siege.' Shortly after the game's release, it was removed from the site.

Sources differ on the primary motivation behind the removal. Ars Technica reports that the removal followed potential legal challenges from the Tetris Company, which holds the rights to the iconic puzzle game. The Verge frames the removal in the context of the game's controversial content, explicitly labeling the game as 'racist' and noting that the Tetris Company had publicly stated they were investigating the situation. While both outlets confirm the game was pulled, they disagree on the emphasis of the narrative; Ars Technica focuses on the administrative and legal implications of the 'propaganda' arcade, while The Verge focuses on the social and political implications of the game's theme.
