If you're expecting the usual April Fools' game update filled with lighthearted pranks and jokes, think again. The developers of Pressure have taken a darker turn with their new game mode, Three Nights at the Blacksite, inspired by the chilling atmosphere of Five Nights at Freddy's. This mode is anything but funny, and here's your comprehensive guide to surviving all three nights.
How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure
If you're familiar with Five Nights at Freddy's, the gameplay mechanics will feel intuitive. For Pressure veterans, you'll recognize the monsters and know how to combat them. Here's a detailed walkthrough for each night.
First Night Walkthrough
You start in a camera control room with surveillance footage in front of you and two doors behind. Remember, closing the doors drains your power, and running out of power means game over. Your only defenses against the monsters are flashing them or closing the doors, both of which require power.
Your primary task throughout the nights is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one where Sebastian should always be. If he leaves, he'll reach you quickly and end your game. Regularly check the cameras for anomalies and turn around to monitor the doors. Sounds are clearer when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.
When the lights flicker around 2 AM on the first night, close the doors to block Angler, who's charging down the hall. You'll also encounter pop-ups from Painter on the camera screen, which you can close and ignore as they're meant to distract you.
Turn around every 10 seconds or at any unusual noise. Continuously browse the camera footage and flash if you suspect Sebastian's presence. If he's not at the top camera, quickly check cameras 1 and 2 to prevent his advance. Follow these tips, and you'll reach 6 AM, ending your shift.
Second Night Walkthrough
Until 1 AM on the second night, you won't face any monsters. Keep checking the cameras and flash if you see anything unusual. At 2 AM, similar to the first night, close the doors when you hear Angler approaching.
The camera footage becomes dimmer, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, focusing on those marked 1 and 2, and don't forget to turn around.
A new monster, Crooked, appears tonight. Defend against him by closing the doors when he's at them. Pay more attention to the cameras as static increases and pop-ups become more frequent.
Just before the shift ends at 5 AM, you'll face two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour is the most challenging, so stay vigilant and avoid distractions.
Third Night Walkthrough
The third night is significantly harder. Sebastian escapes the top camera seconds after your shift starts, followed by an Angler attack 30 seconds later. Focus on checking the cameras and turning around.
After the first Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before reopening. The monsters are faster and stronger, making reactions challenging on your first playthrough. Expect four Angler attacks tonight, with the first two around 2 AM.
After the 3 AM door attacks, the night becomes even more challenging. Keep the doors closed more often, but monitor your power levels closely. The last two hours, 4 AM and 5 AM, are the toughest, requiring you to balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Save power by not flashing Sebastian if he's at cameras A1, B1, or C1.
If you fail on the third night (or the second), you can restart from the beginning of that night. Surviving all three nights completes the event, earning you the Connection Terminated badge.
