worth, you know, roughing those feathers.

[upbeat music] Fox On Games, your insider's cheat code to gaming.
Eamon DignamHOST
The White House has removed one of its newly launched web games from arcade.gov following a veiled copyright warning from the Tetris company.
Eamon DignamHOST
Build The Wall used falling Tetris-style blocks to direct players to erect a barricade.
Eamon DignamHOST
The Tetris brand publicly distanced itself from the effort on social media, noting they take copyright infringement very seriously.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
It's despicable.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
The second one, called Build the Wall, Zombie Border Siege, has since been removed from the White House after Tetris warned that it takes copyright infringement, quote, very seriously.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
Tetris also denied any involvement in the game's creation on the White House website.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
The objective of that game was for players to stack Tetris-like blocks on top of each other to, and this is what they said, protect the border from the coming horde.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
The White House did not respond to our request for comment about either of those games, but turning cruelty into a game is not new.
Jacob SoboroffHOST
There's nothing original about it.
Garrison DavisHOST
This is some of the most Reddit occupied government stuff we've, we've ever seen.
Garrison DavisHOST
Uh, these games are really just bad copies, like bad, bad copies, of other games, like Flappy Bird, Snake, T- and Tetris, with a fascist coat of low-quality pixel art.
Patrick McDonaldGUEST
Yeah.
Patrick McDonaldGUEST
Wow.
Garrison DavisHOST
In the Tetris ripoff, you have to build the wall to, quote, "protect the border from the coming horde" as an endless, quote, "zombie border siege" sends green aliens and zombies advancing toward the wall.
Garrison DavisHOST
Now, m- mechanically, this game makes no sense.
Garrison DavisHOST
The point of Tetris is to clear rows of blocks, not build a wall.
Garrison DavisHOST
And also, upon release, this game was just completely broken.
David FeldmanHOST
These games allowed players to grab migrants and then plant them in detention centers.
David FeldmanHOST
And the White House removed the games from the White House website, not because it was racist or distasteful, but rather because the video game maker Tetris accused them of copyright infringement.
David FeldmanHOST
The video games were too similar to ones already on the market.
David FeldmanHOST
Well, Friday is the 25th anniversary of 9-11.
DanHOST
Good riddance.
DanHOST
Well, I would say onto something slightly lighter, but now we have my triplet of what the hell is wrong with the world and why is the Third Reich returning? First of all, have you ever wanted to play a Donald Trump-themed version of Flappy Bird or Tetris? strangely enough no well don't worry if you do you can go to the white house website and play i would say a heavily racist version of either flappy bird where i think oh no some of it i it's bad or tetris where you're building a wall to keep them in i'm assuming oh jesus christ
DanHOST
i'm assuming the flappy bird one is trump is the bird and you're having to dodge the draft
DanHOST
I'm going to try and keep the jokes a bit more PG.
DanHOST
But yeah, that's pretty bad.
DanHOST
But wait, it gets worse.
DanHOST
So then the makers of Tetris have come out to distance themselves from the racist White House clone of Tetris and saying they take copyright infringement very seriously.
DanHOST
So we don't know if the makers of Tetris are going to sue Donald Trump.
Garrison DavisHOST
This is some of the most Reddit-occupied government stuff we've ever seen.
Garrison DavisHOST
These games are really just bad copies, like bad, bad copies of other games like Flappy Bird, Snake, and Tetris with a fascist coat of low-quality pixel art.
Garrison DavisHOST
Yeah, wow.
Garrison DavisHOST
In the Tetris ripoff... you have to build the wall to, quote, protect the border from the coming horde as an endless, quote, zombie border siege sends green aliens and zombies advancing toward the wall.
Garrison DavisHOST
Now, mechanically, this game makes no sense.
Garrison DavisHOST
The point of Tetris is to clear rows of blocks, not build a wall.
Garrison DavisHOST
And also upon release, this game was just completely broken.
Garrison DavisHOST
The blocks didn't clear after you completed a row.
Harry SissonHOST
Like the other day, the White House launched WhiteHouse.gov where they had a bunch of different games that children could play, including one that was called Build a Wall.
Harry SissonHOST
It was essentially a Tetris ripoff.
Harry SissonHOST
And so Tetris, the company, responded with a statement of their own.
Harry SissonHOST
saying the Tetris company was not involved in the creation of the Build the Wall game.
Harry SissonHOST
We take copyright infringement very seriously, saying at Tetris we believe in the power of connection and bringing people together, not dividing them to our fans everywhere.
Harry SissonHOST
We love you, we see you, and we're grateful.
Harry SissonHOST
to have you in our community and then what do you know just days later the white house removed the build the wall game from their arcade.gov website i love when i see companies and organizations standing up to donald trump because usually they're successful because usually they're right And so all of this is to say that Donald Trump has had a really embarrassing, really humiliating day today.
