: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).
:The easiest way to waste time, '''Arcade Machines''' can be found all over the station including [[Arrivals]], the [[bar]] and [[Escape]]. There are two different games: an RPG, which may go by several different names, or the Orion Trail, which is definitely not a cute ripoff of an ancient educational video game.

: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.

:Emagging this machine turns it into Outbomb Cuban Pete, which is harder and has higher stakes!
====The Orion Trail====
You start out with four people, 80 food, 60 fuel, and one each of engine parts, hull panels and electronics. Your goal is to make it to Orion. Your goal in reality is to crunch a bunch of numbers and hope the RNG favors you.
:The more people you have and the more time you spend, the more food you use up. Every person consumes 2 food per day, and a normal leg of your journey takes 1 day.
:The more detours you take, the more fuel you use up. A normal leg of your journey takes 5 fuel.
:Raiders will sometimes steal a random amount of food and fuel, and collisions may vent it out into space. Certain events will use up engine parts or kill crew members, or offer you a risky option or a safe option that uses more food/fuel.
:You will probably not make it to Orion if all of you live! There is not enough food unless you get really lucky with the black hole. Hope for death.
====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!
