Blacksite Pressure Guide: Three Nights of April Fools

When you think of an April Fools game update, you might expect playful pranks and humorous twists. However, the developers of *Pressure* took a different route with their new game mode, *Three Nights at the Blacksite*, inspired by *Five Nights at Freddy’s*. This mode is anything but lighthearted. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you survive all three nights in this intense experience.

How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure

If you're familiar with *Five Nights at Freddy’s*, you'll quickly grasp the gameplay mechanics. For *Pressure* veterans, you'll recognize the monsters and know how to combat them. Below is a detailed guide to help you survive each night.

First Night Walkthrough

You start in a camera control room with surveillance footage in front of you and two doors behind you that you can open and close. Remember, closing the doors depletes 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 all three nights is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one. Sebastian should always be visible there; if he leaves, he'll reach you quickly and end your game. Regularly check the cameras for anomalies and occasionally turn around to check the doors. The sound is clearer when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.

When you notice the lights flickering, which first happens around 2 AM on Night 1, turn around and close the doors. You'll soon hear Angler charging down the hall. Around this time, Painter will start sending pop-ups on your camera screen, which you can close and ignore as they're meant to distract you.

We recommend turning around every 10 seconds or whenever you hear a strange noise. Continuously browse through the camera footage and flash if you suspect Sebastian's presence. If he's not at the top camera, quickly check cameras marked 1 and 2 to prevent him from advancing too far. Follow these tips, and you'll reach 6 AM, the end of your shift, successfully.

Second Night Walkthrough

By 1 AM on Night 2, you won't face any immediate threats. Keep checking the cameras and flash if you see anything unusual. When you hear strange noises, turn around and close the doors—the first Angler attack occurs at 2 AM, just like on Night 1.

The camera footage becomes noticeably dimmer around this time, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, especially those marked 1 and 2, and don't forget to turn around regularly.

A new monster, Crooked, appears tonight. You'll defend against him by noticing when he's at your doors and closing them briefly. Pay more attention to the cameras, as you'll encounter more static and frequent pop-ups. Close them quickly to stay focused.

Just before the shift ends at 5 AM, you'll face two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour of the night is the most challenging part of your playthrough. Stay vigilant and avoid distractions.

Third Night Walkthrough

Night 3 is significantly harder than the previous nights. Sebastian escapes the top camera mere seconds after your shift starts, followed by an Angler attack 30 seconds later. Forget your previous strategies; focus solely on checking the cameras and turning around.

After the first Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before reopening it. The monsters are now stronger and faster, making it challenging to react in time, especially on your first playthrough. Unlike the previous nights, where the first attack was around 2 AM, you'll face four attacks tonight.

After the two door attacks around 3 AM, the night becomes even more challenging. You'll need to keep your doors closed more often, but monitor your power levels closely. The hours between 4 AM and 5 AM are the most intense, requiring you to balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Our tip is to save power at all costs, even if it means not flashing Sebastian when he's at cameras A1, B1, or C1.

If you lose on Night 3 (or Night 2), you can restart from the beginning of the night. Successfully surviving all three nights completes the event, and you'll earn the Connection Terminated badge for your efforts.
