Video: Playing History’s Slave Trade “Slave Tetris” Removed From Game

I, I can’t even right now.

There is a game out called Playing History 2: Slave Trade. The idea behind the game is to give kids a firsthand look at the horrors of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and educate them.

The creator thought it would be a good idea to include a mini-game into the game. The name of the game, “Slave Tetris.” I don’t know how a tile-matching puzzle game, has anything to do with educating kids on slavery. After a massive backlash, the mini-game was removed.
