===Arcade Machines===
The easiest way to waste time on the station.
The easiest way to waste time, '''Arcade Machines''' can be found all over the station. While all of their games may have different names, they all play the same way: namely, like an RPG. Basically, you and your CPU-controlled opponent take turns attacking. You can also heal (at the cost of MP) or recharge MP (at the cost of a turn).
 
Defeating your opponent nets you a prize of some sort.
 
You lose if your HP or MP is zero or less. Your attacks do 2-8 damage, healing restores 6-14 health for 1-4 MP, and charging regains 4-11 points. But none of that really matters. Although you can't see the enemy stats it's not too difficult to just whittle it down. It will attack doing 3-9 damage for some time. Eventually when its health is low enough it will start healing instead of attacking (4 points at a time), and shortly after when it runs out of MP it will steal yours. It won't ever steal more than 5 per turn, but you'll lose instantly if that puts you below 0.
 
Charging so you have at least 6 MP, healing so you have at least 10 HP and attacking otherwise is bound to work eventually, but there are faster methods.
 
====List of Prizes====
The prize selected is random, unless the machine is [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|emag]]ged. They're all annoying, useless or dangerously similar to illegal items. Have fun!
* Snap-pop box
* Blink toy
* Tacticool Turtleneck
* Toy sword
* Cap gun & ammo
* Foam-dart crossbow
* Replica red spacesuit
* Box of crayons
* 'Singularity' spinning toy
* One of eleven toy mech figurines.
=====Emagged prizes=====
You get both of these, GUARANTEED! The arcade machine resets after, so you'll have to emag it ''again'' and win ''again'' to get more. It's probably faster to just go make a bomb yourself.
* Syndicate bomb
* Collectable Cuban Pete hat
