"Blood of Patriots" is a political satire fighting game reminiscent of 1990s arcade games, where players must choose from 18 patriots or tyrants and fight their way up the Tree of Liberty to save the country from an evil force threatening freedom. Each character has unique moves, fireballs, sounds, and animations, with the difficulty increasing as the game progresses. The addition of Nancy Pelosi adds to the game's topical humor.
