Overview

The idea is simple - the entire space is covered with cameras that you can use to spy on fellow patrons by using any of the consoles positioned at tables around the bar. Who would have guessed that they could still be getting distance from it over 6 years later without updating the technology? Now old style telephone handsets and CRTs create an oddly hip Starship Enterprise aesthetic.
