Poly-Play is an arcade cabinet developed in East Germany in 1985; it is the only such machine to originate in the GDR. It was created by VEB Polytechnik and contained a number of games, including a "Pac-Man" clone. A total of about 2,000 units of the cabinet were manufactured. Hardware. "Poly-Play" ran on a U880, a clone of the Zilog Z80 CPU, which was clocked at 2.457600 MHz and a custom sound chip. Its display ran at a resolution of 512*256 at 50 Hz and supported a palette of ten colours, though it could  also use coloured overlays.

The machine ran with a deactivated coin slot in many youth clubs. However, the free play often caused large crowds to form around it, which incited their reactivation. A "Poly-Play  machine was on display in the Museum of Computing in Swindon, England in 2004. From 2005, the same machine was part of the touring video game show Game On and was exhibited in multiple museums, such as the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and the Science Museum in London. Two machines can also be seen at RetroGames e.V. in Germany. It is also prominently on display at the Computerspielemuseum Berlin. Games.

All four games have been installed on at least some machines, the same goes for the games "Im Irrgarten" (In the Maze), "Der Lindwurm" (The Lindworm), "Fly" and "AFU". Another game titled "UFO" is actually the original version of "Hagelnde Wolken", but was edited due to being deemed too martial by the authorities.
