What is Spectator?

You play a remote CCTV operator in a single-player, point-and-click horror game set across six locations. Each level involves monitoring camera feeds, identifying paranormal anomalies, and applying countermeasures until 6 AM. Anomalies are procedurally generated, and missing too many causes failure.
