Unspookable

Video games have become a big part of our lives. They exercise our motor skills and problem solving abilities, help us build community and relationships, and more than anything...they're just fun! But did you know that in the early days of gaming technology many people actually feared video games and the arcades that housed them? There were rumors of mind control, injury, and even disappearances surrounding one game in particular...Polybius. We look into this mysterious arcade game's history and the conspiracies it birthed on this episode of Unspookable.   Host: Elise Parisian Written by: Victoria Tomis with Nate DuFort, Elise Parisian  Created, Produced, Edited by: Nate DuFort Research by: Michael Grathwohl michaelgrathwohl.me.
