PC Game
On July 20, 2007 a Sinneslöschen website went online that offered a freeware Polybius game and cabinet art for download. The game, created with DarkBASIC, features gameplay and graphics based on the interview with Steven Roach and messages taken from the 1988 movie They Live. The game and site were made by the same person who created and released other freeware games at the site RogueSynapse. In fact, both sinnesloschen.com and roguesynapse.com point at the same IP address, while the PC Polybius game can be seen running in a custom cabinet in a photograph at RogueSynapse.
Several videos of this game have been made and uploaded to YouTube, where it is often described as if it were the actual game the urban legend is about. Some videos, due to their spinning graphics, may cause harmful effects to those with epilepsy.

Famous quotes containing the word game:
“Neighboring farmers and visitors at White Sulphur drove out occasionally to watch ‘those funny Scotchmen’ with amused superiority; when one member imported clubs from Scotland, they were held for three weeks by customs officials who could not believe that any game could be played with ‘such elongated blackjacks or implements of murder.’”
—For the State of West Virginia, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
