Stumbled upon an old video clip (from 1983) showing a coin operated game called “Herpes”, no joke.

Pictures here.

Here’s a link to the video I found this in.

It’s in a coin op cabinet that looks pretty custom, and the graphics look similar to Atari 8-bit graphics. My gut says this is a bespoke game, with an Atari buried inside (like the Exidy Max-A-Flex system)

Can anyone provide any more information on this?

    It doesn’t look like Ray Davies to me. Very interesting show, it’s kind of like Black Mirror if it was done in a more experimental pseudo-documentary format. It’s about the “Video Age” lol.
