›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 . 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?
