Polybius - The Game That Doesn't Exist
posted September 11, 2017 #
When you've got a spare moment, dive into this documentary on Polybius, an arcade game from the early 1980's that may have been part of a government-run psychology experiment to learn more about the effects of video games. It's steeped in mystery like "men in black" at arcade games, subliminal messages baked into the game and plenty of illness felt after playing it. But it's also likely a complete urban legend. That's the fun of it. Even if it's not real, maybe it's okay to let yourself buy in.
