POLYBIUS — A Psychological Horror Add-On

Inspired by the infamous Polybius arcade urban legend of 1981, this add-on brings a disturbing psychological horror experience to Minecraft Bedrock Edition.

A mysterious arcade machine may appear near villages. At first, it seems like an ordinary game—but every session comes at a cost. The more you play, the more your sanity deteriorates, and the world around you becomes increasingly unsettling.
