The games — which include knockoff versions of iconic games like Snake, Tetris and Flappy Bird — launched on Thursday, September 3.
In a video shared to social media, the MAGA logo appears as a knockoff of Japanese video game company, SEGA. One game, titled Rio Run, instructs the player “Patrol the line along the river. Pick up every crosser in the lot. Never double back over the line.”
A man in a suit, seemingly PresidentDonald Trump, leads a line of inmates as he aims to collect immigrants for deportation, in a game akin to Snake.
The Tetris-like game, aptly titled “Build the Wall,” mimics the 1980s classic with falling blocks. The game is set along the southern border of the United States and instructs players to “Stack bricks. Hold the line.”
Tetris released a statement following the release of the MAGA games saying, “At Tetris we believe in power of connection and bringing people together, not dividing them. To our fans everywhere: We love you, we see you and we’re grateful to have you in our community.”

“P.S. The Tetris Company was not involved in the creation of ‘Build the Wall,'” the company captioned its Instagram post on Friday. “P.P.S. We take copyright infringement very seriously.”
According to the administration, the games are “an effort to further contrast between a culture of fun and winning and the dark socialist vision Democrats have for America.”
“The president continues to rack up victory after victory on behalf of the American public, while opponents of his agenda are defending their record of raising taxes and empowering criminal illegal aliens,” a statement from the White House to USA Today read.
