Special Containment Procedures: A cartridge containing SCP-5757-A's data has been hardwired into an Atari Jaguar games console, in order to obtain a consistent video stream. Video output by SCP-5757-A is subject to algorithmic monitoring in order to ensure its accuracy.
Wildlife agents have secured the perimeter of the Everglades Agricultural Area C-139 Annex with unauthorized persons being refused access under the guise of ongoing restoration work.
Any attempt by SCP-5757-affected individuals enthralled by them to exit the C-139 Annex are to be repelled; lethal force is authorized for these efforts.
Attempts to recover those affected by SCP-5757 have been discontinued. Lethal force is authorized to enact these procedures, if that becomes necessary.
Description: SCP-5757-A is the data for an unreleased and unfinished piece of software. Entitled "Curse of the Everglade" it is written with the ICRDTA programming language and is only compatible with original Atari Jaguar hardware.
The game world of SCP-5757 appears to correlate directly to approximately 15,000 acres of land within an Everglades Agricultural Area, hereafter referred to as SCP-5757- B. Actions taken within SCP-5757's game space can and will change the physical landscape, topography, and population of SCP-5757.
Any sentient or sapient entities within SCP-5757-B, including humans, will be represented as spherical sprites by SCP-5757-A. Within the game space there is a persistent text bubble displayed above any human-representing sprites, giving information on their status, mood, and occasionally brief transcripts of their vocalizations.
However, to date, it has proven impossible to play SCP-5757-A directly through the console - instead, it is believed that the game is played remotely by the first individual to gain physical access to SCP-5757-B with knowledge of its connection to SCP-5757-A.

Star Justices THEY'RE COMING SOON Transcript of Video Cassettes 9-18 Found by urban explorers in an abandoned Miami-Dade home. The VCR containing the tapes had been recording a television set, which burnt out prior to the discovery.
A Foundation front posing as a video restoration service subsequently acquired the tapes.
Restoration of the recording tape is ongoing. Only a few short segments are possible to view clearly.
<Begin Log A> (Three units enter the game setting, followed by another two, and all continue until they reach three trees present at the centre of the game setting.) Subject 5757-1: HOLY SHIT Subject 5757-2: WHAT ?
Subject 5757-1: THIS IS IT DUDE Subject 5757-3: WHAT ? NO WAY Subject 5757-1: IT IS ! THESE ARE THE TREES FROM THE COVER (Pause.) Subject 5757-1: SEE ? IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME (Pause.) Subject 5757-4: NEAT (Pause.) Subject 5757-1: AAAAAAAA (The other units encircle Subject 5757-1. The player cursor begins moving for the first recorded occasion, hovering over the group.) Subject 5757-5: DUDE IS HE HAVING A SEIZURE OR SOMETHING ?
Subject 5757-2: I DON'T KNOW ! JUST GIVE HIM SOME AIR Subject 5757-1: IT'S REAL Subject 5757-2: WHAT ?
(The player cursor highlights all visible units and designates them as Assets.) Subject 5757-1: IT'S REAL !
<End Log> Note: It is believed this tape documents events which took place days or months following Log A. Exact timing has yet to be determined.
At this point, it is believed that Subject 5757-1 has used SCP-5757-A to control the individuals which had entered SCP-5757-B with them.
<Begin Log B> (Subject 5757-2 enters the hut where SCP-5757-1's body is located.) Subject 5757-2: KURT Subject 5757-2: KURT !
Subject 5757-1: WHAT DUDE I'M TRYING TO THINK Subject 5757-2: WE NEED TO GO HOME MAN (Pause.) Subject 5757-1: WHAT ?
Subject 5757-2: IT'S NOT SAFE OUT HERE Subject 5757-1: YES IT IS WE BEAT THAT ALLIGATOR EASY Subject 5757-2: MARGIE'S GETTING SICK Subject 5757-1: IT'S FINE I'LL UNLOCK DISEASE RESISTANCE SOON Subject 5757-2: LISTEN !
Subject 5757-2: I'VE GOT A FAMILY ! I'M NOT GONNA STAY OUT HERE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE Subject 5757-1: DON'T BE FUCKING SELFISH (Pause.) Subject 5757-2: ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS RIGHT NOW ?
Subject 5757-1: YOUR WHOLE LIFE YOU GET EVERYTHING YOU WANT ! I'M SUPPOSED TO GO BE MISERABLE IN A CALL CENTER SO YOU CAN GO HUG YOUR KIDS OR WHATEVER ?
Subject 5757-1: I'M LOOKING DOWN AT YOU FROM THE SKY RIGHT NOW, MATT ! THOSE EYES YOU'RE LOOKING AT DON'T MEAN ANYTHING ANYMORE Subject 5757-1: I CAN FINALLY DO WHAT I WANT AND YOU WANT TO STEAL THAT AWAY FROM ME ? YOU THINK I'LL JUST LET YOU DO THAT ?
(Pause.) Subject 5757-2: YOU'RE DELUSIONAL Subject 5757-1: SHUT UP Subject 5757-2: JUST LET US GO YOU SICK FUCK !
Subject 5757-1: I SAID SHUT UP !
(The player cursor highlights Subject 5757-2 and designates it 'Foodstuff'.) Subject 5757-2: WHAT DID YOU DO ?
Subject 5757-1: SORRY I NEED TO GO NOW (Free units begin entering the hut and surrounding Subject 5757-2.) Subject 5757-5: NO NO I DON'T WANT TO !
Subject 5757-4: I'M SORRY ! I'M SORRY !
Subject 5757-2: KURT KURT KURT KURT KURT KURT PLEASE !
(Cursor proceeds upwards, moving the camera far past the settlement to observe two flamingos in a river.) Subject 5757-1: I CAN DO THIS !
Subject 5757-1: I AM THE Jaguar King.
<End Log> Research Analysis Initially, we assumed that the threat from Subject 5757-1 would only grow as a result of it becoming more accustomed to its new capabilities. We did not anticipate the threat that would result from those capabilities expanding. I am writing, of course, of the skill tree that we found in the data of SCP-5757-A.
As Subject 5757-1 expands its settlement and continues killing the local wildlife, it is gaining 'experience' - and it's using that experience to make itself more powerful.
So far, we know it has access to these skills: Skill Share: Skills possessed by one unit are shared by all controllable units. This is why they're all able to proficiently use the weapons they have access to.
Vital Boost: All of the units are much more durable than ordinary human beings - they move faster and hit harder, too.
Revive: If a living unit can get to a downed unit within a minute of it losing all its health, the downed unit can be revived.
Fine Control: We're fairly sure this is the latest skill Subject 5757-1 has acquired. Previously, SCP-5757-1's commands were limited to simple things like 'go here, move this there, attack this'. Now, we're not certain of the level of control it can achieve.
The next skill to be achieved is Animal Call - which allows the player to recruit animal units as well as human ones. If Subject 5757-1 achieves control over all the local wildlife, I don't think I need to say how much more difficult containment will become.
Tracking the rate of experience gain, we're fairly sure that Subject 5757-1 will unlock this skill in five days time. If we're going to eliminate this threat, this is our last chance.

Dr. Regal Expedition Summary Mobile Task Force Delta-43, "Quarter Junkies" was mobilized on 1/16/2019 to carry out the neutralization of Subject 5757-1. All communications were broadcast through soundproof headsets with microphones.
Operational goal was to locate SCP-5757-1, activate targeting beacon, then retreat to a safe distance while HQ shelled the area. Equipment was standard for subtropical/jungle environments.
<Begin Log> • • • • Agent Lent: We've crossed through the perimeter. Check in, everyone.
Agent Decourcey: One Quarter Junkie, Quebec, uniform, alfa, romeo, tango, echo, romeo… Agent Davie: (Interrupting) Checking in, and Decourcey I'm very proud that you can remember your phonetic alphabet.
Agent Jesup: Jesup, checking in. Apparently I'm the only one who can remember his name.
HQ: Roger. We hear you all loud and clear.
Agent Davie: What's the game showing, command?
HQ: You should be clear to proceed with caution.
(Approximately fifteen minutes of silence) Agent Lent: Careful, Decs. Surprise keeps us alive.
Agent Decourcey: Sorry. Didn't see the branch in all the river grass. You think they heard anything?
Agent Davie: Command, how's our target looking? Still sitting pretty?
HQ: No behavior changes. They still appear to be building.
Agent Jesup: Stop. Davey, there's a weird bug on your shoulder.
Agent Lent: Squash it. We're going to have to get this stuff dry-cleaned anyhow.
Agent Jesup: Squashed. Let's go.
(Approximately one hour of silence) Agent Lent: Command, we've got a problem. We're at the point, but not seeing any targets.
Agent Jesup: Doesn't look like anyone's been here in a hundred, two hundred years.
Agent Decourcey: Very scientific.
Agent Jesup: Bite me, Decs. I'm trying here.
Agent Lent: Shut up. Command, what are you seeing?
HQ: You should be able to see their position. What are you seeing?
Agent Decourcey: Mangroves, cypress trees, cypress knees, an orchid here, lot of mosquito. Expected fauna, no signs of habitation.
Agent Lent: Wait, where's Davie?
HQ: Davie, check in.
(Silence) Agent Lent: Dang it. Dang it. Shit. Fuck. Pull back, this isn't good.
Agent Jesup: We have to stay.
Agent Lent: Jesps, what're you- Agent Decourcey: We have to stay.
<End Log> Radio communications temporarily disabled, cause unknown.
Agent Lent's Expedition <Begin Log> (Agent Lent enters into an unknown structure within SCP-5757-B. Agents Decourcey, Davie, and Jesup are escorting, all are believed to be affected by SCP-5757.) Subject 5757-1: Bring me the buzzard bait. I wish to parlay with its masters.
Agent Lent: Hello Kurt. You- Subject 5757-1: (interrupting) Your information is out of date. Address me as the Jaguar King.
(Pause.) Agent Lent: …right. Well, Jaguar King. You want to talk about… your swamp?
Subject 5757-1: You're very arrogant to - Agent Decourcey: (interrupting) - come into my kingdom - Agent Davie: (interrupting) - and make assumptions.
(Pause.) Agent Lent: Neat trick.
Subject 5757-1: (shouting) No!
Agent Jesup: It isn't a some party trick.
All Subjects: (In unison) Respect in the power of the Jaguar King.
Subject 5757-1: Prostrate yourself.
(Pause.) Agent Lent: I'll pass.
SCP-5757-1: Worm. Shut your mouth. You're not to speak unless spoken to.
Agent Jesup: In here, you do what I want, better than you could ever do on your own… Agent Decourcey: …so what was the point of you even being born outside at all?
(Pause.) Agent Lent: That's a big question - I'm not really equipped to answer it.
Doesn't make any sense, anyhow. None of this does.
Subject 5757-1: I - Agent Lent: (interrupting) These are good boys you've got here, Kurt. Let 'em go, and maybe we can all walk out of here on two feet.
(Pause.) (All Subjects begin laughing, continuing for ten seconds before suddenly stopping.) Subject 5757-1: You think so? As if this unit means anything to me. Go ahead. Take a gun and, and, shoot me in the head! See if I care.
Agent Lent: I have to admit, it'd be satisfying. But we've still got a mission to do.
Agent Decourcey: Oh, I see, I see.
Agent Davie: I see.
Agent Jesup: I see.
Subject 5757-1: I see. What a noble sacrifice. Useless? Also boring. If you've got nothing to parlay, then you'll have to go. Even if you shot everyone here, it's not like this is all I have at my disposal. Did you think that I was that stupid?
Agent Lent: Is that a no?
Subject 5757-1: Of course I'm not that stupid!
Agent Lent: No - my offer. Is that a no? Think carefully.
(Pause.) Subject 5757-1: (quietly) Of course it's a no, you stupid shit.
Agent Lent: Alright. (Target beacon activates) Eat shell, you sonofabitch.
Subject 5757-1: You don't scare- (Feed cuts out.) <End Log> Artillery strike was successfully executed against SCP-5757-B. All Subjects were designated as neutralized.
Agent Lent posthumously given the Foundation Star.
Addendum 5757-U: On 02/2/2020, monthly monitoring of SCP-5757-A's video output as part of neutralization reclassification procedures showed a previously unseen screen.
Any changes to SCP-5757's documentation is suspended until further notice.
Level 4 Access Required Analysis of the console running SCP-5757-A confirms that it received a button input several seconds before this image disappeared.
