In 1981 an arcade cabinet began popping up all over the Portland area called Polybius…or at least…that’s the claim. Released by a company called Sinneslöschen, the game used a graphics rendering technology that was impossibly ahead of its time and men in black were reported to be monitoring the machines. Kids that played reported having migraines, hallucinations, and memory loss while others became vehemently anti-arcade. But, just as quickly as the machines appeared, those same men in black soon took them away. No one has seen one since.
In part two of this two-part episode, Jack LaRoche delves into the possible origins of this internet legend. From a South American company commissioning cabinets to be built in Europe to uncovering a pedophile sex trafficking ring, the more Jake, Julian, and Travis hear, the more unbelievable the story becomes.
