Donald Trump Video Game Created in Mexico
Trump haters who have lost interest whacking those big-haired piñatas now have a more high-tech way to vent.
Apto Communicacion Digital, a digital company based out of Guadalajara, Mexico, has just introduced a game called "Trumpada" to the world.
In the game players get to vicariously act as the 2016 presidential candidate.
As described in Fusion, the objectives are easy and all about digital ridicule. As Trump, players will collect as much money as they can while avoiding minorities and whipping their hair around for protection.
"Trumpada" was created by two Latinos: Apto co-founder and creative director Andres Preciado and co-founder and producer Alvaro Plasencia. The game, as silly as it seems, serves as a kind of social criticism in that it is actually a high-tech bit of video humor which has been put together by a pair of young Latinos in a country that Trump has disparaged as backwards.
Plasencia said the game took three weeks to put together. Talking about rushing the product towards existence, he said, “It was an intense three weeks putting the team together, but the process was fun and the result is amazing.”
Regarding Trump, he said, “Everybody hates this guy.”
“He has spoken crap about Mexicans, he is making fun of us all of the time. Every time he speaks, he causes trouble to Latin communities,” he elaborated, “People are having a great time playing it. They enjoy that Donald always loses, it doesn’t matter what happens—he always loses.”
And it looks like "Trumpada" is not the only Trump game I town.
The Guardian reports that there is another game called "Trumpleao," wherein players will be able to toss footballs, tequila bottles, as well as cacti at an electronic image of the outspoken anti-immigrant GOP candidate.
