The only apolitical video game is Tetris, and its export history is Cliff's Notes for cold-war economic shenanigans.

    Tetris is a hyperabstract policing simulator. The shapes are people, your job is to shove them into boxes and keep them in line. Too many get out of line and you lose. Some people are easy to fit in, like lines and squares, some go out of their way to be helpful like Ls and Ts and some people...well, some people are just always gonna be Zs facing the wrong direction.
