Inszenierung der US-Politik: Weißes Haus verpackt Trumps Politik in Online-Spielautomaten
Die grob pixelige Figur eines Grenzbeamten sammelt Migranten zur Abschiebung ein. Ein virtueller Adler fliegt über die National Mall. Wie die US-Regierung folgenreiche Politik ins Spiel übersetzt.
The White House has translated US President Donald Trump's policies into an online slot machine. Inspired by early video games found in casino arcades, the government central website hosts several games in a retro pixelated design, each focusing on key US administration topics. Two games specifically depict Trump's policies on irregular immigration and securing the Mexico border.
In the game "Build The Wall," players construct a wall along the border, while "Rio Run" functions like the smartphone game Snake, with the goal of collecting migrants as they progress down the screen. In contrast, "Flappy Bill," inspired by the popular smartphone title Flappy Bird, emphasizes national pride. Players must navigate a bald eagle, the national symbol of the USA, through the Washington D.C.
National Mall park area, featuring famous monuments and the Capitol at one end. Other themes include school nutrition and the "Trump Accounts," a government-propagated investment model for children.
