When you think of an April Fools game update, you typically expect playful pranks and humorous twists. However, the developers of *Pressure* took a different approach with their new game mode, *Three Nights at the Blacksite*, inspired by the chilling atmosphere of *Five Nights at Freddy’s*. This mode is far from a laughing matter, offering a tense survival experience. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to endure all three nights in this gripping event.
How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure
If you’re a fan of *Five Nights at Freddy’s*, the core mechanics will feel familiar. For those accustomed to *Pressure*, you'll recognize the monsters and know how to fend them off. Here’s a detailed guide to help you survive each night.
First Night Walkthrough
You begin in a camera control room, with surveillance footage at your disposal. Behind you, there are two doors that you can open and close. Be aware that closing these doors drains your power, and running out of power means game over. Your only defenses against the monsters are flashing them or closing your doors, both of which require power.
Throughout the night, your primary task is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one where Sebastian should always be visible. If he leaves, he'll reach you quickly and end your game. Keep an eye out for anomalies and regularly check the doors. Sounds are clearer when not in camera mode, which is crucial for anticipating threats.
When the lights start flickering, typically around 2 AM on the first night, close the doors to protect against Angler's imminent charge. You'll also encounter Painter's pop-ups on the camera screen, which you can safely ignore as they're meant to distract you.
Our advice is to turn around every 10 seconds or whenever you hear a strange noise. Meanwhile, continue scanning the camera footage and flash if you suspect Sebastian's presence. If he's not at the top camera, check cameras 1 and 2 to prevent his advance. Follow these strategies, and you'll make it to 6 AM, marking the end of your first shift.
Second Night Walkthrough
On the second night, you start without immediate threats. Keep checking the cameras and flash if anything seems off. Around 2 AM, just like the first night, you'll need to close the doors upon hearing unusual sounds to defend against Angler.
The camera footage becomes dimmer, making it harder to see. Cycle through all the cameras frequently, especially those marked 1 and 2, and don't forget to turn around periodically.
A new monster, Crooked, appears this night. You'll need to spot him at your doors and close them briefly to fend him off. Pay more attention to the cameras as static increases, and close Painter's pop-ups as they become more frequent.
Just before the end of the shift at 5 AM, brace for two Angler attacks, one on each side. The final hour is the most challenging, so stay focused and avoid distractions.
Third Night Walkthrough
The third night is the toughest. Sebastian escapes the top camera almost immediately, followed by an Angler attack just 30 seconds later. Forget previous strategies; focus solely on checking cameras and turning around.
After the first Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before reopening it. The monsters are faster and more aggressive, making reactions harder, especially on your first attempt. Expect four Angler attacks throughout the night, unlike the previous two nights' single attack at 2 AM.
Following two door attacks around 3 AM, the challenge intensifies. You'll need to keep doors closed more frequently but monitor your power levels closely. The final two hours at 4 AM and 5 AM are the most demanding, requiring you to balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Our tip: save power even if it means not flashing Sebastian when he's at cameras A1, B1, or C1.
A reassuring aspect is that if you fail on the third night (or the second), you can restart from the beginning of that night. Successfully surviving all three nights completes the event, earning you the *Connection Terminated* badge.
