Mysterious Iran War video game appears in Washington DC

A protest group behind art installations in Washington DC has unveiled a new art piece – a video game about Donald Trump’s Iran War.

The playable video game was installed at the DC War Memorial and is titled ‘Operation Epic Furious: Strait to Hell’ – a nod to Trump’s ongoing war in the Middle East.

Three arcade cabinets allow passersby to play the game, described on a plaque as ‘a high-octane, flag-waving, boots-on-the-ground simulator where freedom isn’t debated, it’s deployed’.

‘No briefings, no hesitation, just pure pixelated patriotism. Strap in and play hard, because this game may never end.’

The group behind the installation, Secret Handshake, added: ‘The Trump administration knows that the best way to sell combat is by making it a video game, that’s why they’ve been pumping out the ‘sickest’ Iran War video game hype reels. But why stop at clips when you could go full throttle?’

The game opens up in the White House, where Melania tells Trump: ‘I WAS NEVER ON THE EPSTEIN JET.’

She then asks, ‘Did you burn the files yet?’

In the game, Trump is the playable character, who is tasked with collecting oil barrels and Truth Social ideas in a bid to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Also featured are FBI director Kash Patel, VP JD Vance, Elon Musk and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Trump’s character is able to gain XP by fighting enemies, including ‘Iranian schoolgirl’ and ‘DEIyatollah’.

The President can also perform epic moves like the ‘Mar-a-Lazer’, a nod to his Mar-a-Lago, Florida club.

The game, however, is seemingly unwinnable. Despite completing various tasks to influence the trajectory of the war, nothing changes. Some players lose abruptly.

Yesterday, Trump said the Iran ceasefire was on ‘life support’ after he rejected Tehran’s latest proposal to end the war.

Officials said the proposal included some concessions on Iran’s disputed nuclear program, but Trump dismissed it as ‘garbage’.

The stalled diplomacy and recent exchanges of fire could tip the Middle East back into open warfare and prolong the worldwide energy crisis sparked by the conflict, with Iran’s chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz and America’s blockade of Iranian ports still in place.

Asked at an unrelated White House event if the ceasefire was still in place, Trump said it is ‘unbelievably weak’ and on ‘life support’.

‘I would call it the weakest right now after reading that piece of garbage they sent us,’ Trump added. ‘I didn’t even finish reading it.’

Trump is expected to use a trip this week to China to urge President Xi Jinping to pressure Iran.
