Our take on Surveillance Work -Taboo-
The bounce point comes when an anomaly is ignored for too long and the camera fails. Players must also switch between footage review, information searches, and questions from on-site staff within each task.
What is Surveillance Work -Taboo-?
Play as a surveillance officer during a five-day probationary period at a facility.
Each task lasts about 12 minutes and involves reviewing camera footage, identifying anomalies, and searching for information by anomaly ID or two distinct words. Some anomalies involve objects appearing, disappearing, or moving, while others include visible changes, different camera placement, or altered footage. Ignoring certain changes for too long can cause camera failure. Some investigations also require appropriate answers to questions from on-site staff. Early reporting increases rewards. Each facility contains about 60 anomalies, and the game has 20 endings. The previous version can be accessed through Steam’s beta settings.
