An activist art organization known for splattering anti-Trump installations around Washington has unveiled its latest project: an arcade game satirizing the president’s long-running push to take control of Greenland.

The enigmatic group, Secret Handshake, installed three large video-game consoles at Washington’s World War I Memorial this week. A fourth appeared in Nuuk, Greenland’s capital.

Called “Operation Epic Furious: Nuuk ’Em All,” the game “turns all of Trump’s latest Greenland ambitions into an unhinged Arctic adventure,” according to a news release the group provided to The Independent.

“In this game, Iran is going great (spoiler – it’s not), so Trump heads north to check on his new frozen frontier,” the release states. “Along the way, he battles unthinkable evils like Fully Vaccinated Children, Woke Yetis, and the happiest people on Earth, the Danish. All the while, the player’s greatest challenge is trying to keep President Trump from falling back asleep.”

The game, which is also available online, casts players as the 80-year-old president, directing them to consult with his advisers at Mar-a-Lago and assemble a plan to invade the Arctic territory.

Secret Handshake said it created the digital quest after the White House launched its own gaming website, including a Tetris-style game in which users build a wall along the southern border.

“Nuuk ’Em All” debuted roughly a week after the United States, Denmark and Greenland signed an agreement allowing expanded U.S. military access in Greenland while preserving Danish sovereignty over the island.

Since returning to office, Trump has repeatedly expressed interest in bringing Greenland under U.S. control, even threatening to take the island by force — a prospect that has unsettled Greenlanders and European allies alike. Polls have found few Americans support a U.S. takeover of the island, home to about 56,000 people.

The Independent has contacted the White House for comment.

Secret Handshake — which has described itself as a small group of citizens seeking to shape political discourse through humor — has a long history of placing art installations critical of Trump around Washington and other parts of the country.

In May, the group unveiled a series of arcade consoles lampooning Trump’s Iran war titled “Operation Epic Furious: Strait to Hell.”

The White House has previously attacked the art collective, describing them as “untalented ‘artists’” who should “stick to their ugly ‘art’ and refrain from weighing in on foreign policy.”

Secret Handshake previously claimed responsibility for a golden monument depicting Trump and the late sex offenderJeffrey Epstein in a pose mirroring the film Titanic as well as another statue in which the two men are shown holding hands.
