Surveillance Devices

Surveillance devices are your primary tools for gathering information and fulfilling Ministry directives in Beholder: Conductor. Mastering their placement and usage is essential for uncovering secrets, monitoring tenants, and completing objectives without being detected. Each device has specific capabilities and limitations that dictate its optimal use.

  • Hidden Camera: The most common surveillance tool. Hidden cameras can be placed in various locations within a tenant's apartment, such as behind paintings, in lamps, or inside books. They provide visual evidence of illegal activities or conversations. Placement is key; ensure the camera has a clear line of sight to areas where tenants are likely to engage in suspicious behavior.
  • Bug (Audio Recorder): Bugs are used to record conversations. They are smaller and harder to detect than cameras, making them ideal for sensitive areas or when visual evidence is not enough. Place bugs near common gathering spots, such as dining tables or living room sofas, to capture dialogue.
  • Keyhole Camera: A specialized camera that can be inserted into keyholes to view the interior of a room without entering. This is particularly useful for initial reconnaissance or when you suspect a tenant is inside and you want to avoid direct confrontation.
  • Motion Sensor: These devices detect movement within a specific area. While they don't provide direct evidence, they can alert you to a tenant's presence or activity, allowing you to follow up with other surveillance methods. Useful for monitoring hallways or specific rooms.
  • Thermal Imager: A high-tech device that can detect heat signatures through walls. This allows you to determine if someone is inside an apartment without needing to enter or use a keyhole camera. It's excellent for confirming presence before a raid or search.

Remember to retrieve your devices after use, especially if you plan to search an apartment or if a tenant is about to move out. Leaving devices behind can lead to penalties or alert tenants to your activities.
