April Fools' updates are typically filled with humorous pranks and light-hearted fun. However, the developers of *Pressure* took a different approach with their new game mode, *Three Nights at the Blacksite*, inspired by the eerie atmosphere of *Five Nights at Freddy's*. This mode is anything but a laughing matter. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to survive all three nights in this intense new challenge.
How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure
If you're already a fan of *Five Nights at Freddy's*, the gameplay mechanics will feel familiar. For those who know *Pressure*, you'll be well-versed in the monsters you'll encounter and the strategies to combat them. Below, you'll find a detailed walkthrough to help you survive each night.
First Night Walkthrough
You start in a camera control room, monitoring surveillance footage. Behind you are two doors that you can open and close. Remember, closing these doors consumes power, and running out of power means game over. Your main defenses against the monsters are flashing them or closing the doors, both of which require power.
Your primary task across all three nights is to monitor the cameras, particularly the top one, where Sebastian should always be visible. If he leaves this camera, he'll quickly reach you and end your game. Regularly check for anomalies and occasionally turn around to inspect the doors. Sounds are more distinct when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.
When the lights start flickering around 2 AM on the first night, close the doors as Angler will soon charge down the hall. You'll also encounter your first pop-ups from Painter on the camera screen, which you can close and ignore as they're meant to distract you.
It's advisable to turn around every 10 seconds or when you hear unusual noises. Continue scanning 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 make it to 6 AM, ending the first night successfully.
Second Night Walkthrough
The second night starts quietly until 1 AM, but keep monitoring the cameras and flash if anything looks off. When you hear strange noises, turn around and close the doors; Angler's first attack happens at 2 AM, just like on the first night.
The camera footage becomes dimmer around this time, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, especially cameras 1 and 2, and don't forget to check behind you. A new monster, Crooked, appears tonight. Defend against him by closing the doors when he's at them. Pay closer 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 final hour requires your utmost vigilance to avoid distractions and survive until 6 AM.
Third Night Walkthrough
The third night is significantly more challenging. Sebastian escapes the top camera mere seconds into your shift, followed by an Angler attack 30 seconds later. Forget past strategies and focus solely on checking cameras and turning around frequently.
After the first Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before reopening it. The monsters are faster and more aggressive, making it harder to react in time. You'll face four Angler attacks tonight, with the first two happening around 3 AM. Keep the doors closed more often, but monitor your power levels closely. The last two hours, from 4 AM to 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.
