We Love It's Guide to…

Dead Signal

You work for ViVEX, a shadowy organization that monitors a network of hacked and hidden cameras. From your apartment in a troubled complex, you report suspicious activity to satisfy the organization’s customers. Watch feeds from 23 cameras, spot unusual details, and choose the correct report category to meet each hourly quota. Camera faults and connection problems can interrupt your work and require repairs. You also leave your apartment to fix equipment or deliver questionable packages to tenants. Keep track of your surroundings, secure your door when you leave, and manage these tasks alongside surveillance to make it through the night.

Work a night shift for a covert camera network: spot anomalies, meet reporting quotas, make deliveries, and survive your building.

From the Devs

Monitor

Throughout the night you'll be required to monitor all 23 cameras. Successfully spotting the differences that arise and selecting the appropriate report category will help reach your hourly quota. Occasionally remote camera repairs and connection errors will impede progress and demand your immediate attention.

Move

Whether it's fixing connection errors with the satellite, or collecting questionable packages to deliver, you'll need to access the roof. Thankfully it's only a short elevator ride away from your apartment. Move quickly as leaving your place unlocked could allow for uninvited guests to enter. When returning input the generated keypad code to lockup.

Survive

Regardless of where you are in the apartment complex, any moment could be your last. Watch not only the cameras closely, but also your own surroundings. Managing both will be the only way to see the sun rise again.

The Story

As of 2021, there are over 85 million security cameras in the United States alone. More than half are easily breached—they monitor businesses, public parks, mass transportation… even your homes. The act of placing hidden cameras in such areas is also common, in fact there is a whole business behind it.

This presents a monetization option for shady individuals and organizations. Organizations that operate behind the shadows of the Darknet. You happen to work for one of them, and they call themselves ViVEX. Ran by ‘The Shade’ - your employer.

You are tasked in appeasing your employer by monitoring the camSPY network. A network of hacked and hidden cameras. You are to report anything of “interest” to satisfy your customers. But time is money, and you must meet your hourly quota or face termination.

Being the entrepreneur that ‘The Shade’ is, he has noticed that you live in a sketchy part of the city and decided to take advantage of this. You are to deliver “packages”’ to tenants in your apartment complex throughout your shift.

Get ready… Your shift is about to begin.. Should be a smooth night.. Right?
