Author: Harper Apr 13,2025

When you think of April Fools' game updates, you typically expect light-hearted pranks and fun twists on gameplay. 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 humorous, offering a tense and challenging experience. Here's your comprehensive guide to surviving all three nights in this gripping new mode.

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. If you know *Pressure*, you'll recognize the monsters and how to fend them off. Here's a detailed guide 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, but be mindful that closing them depletes your power, and running out of power means game over. To combat the monsters, you can either flash them or close the doors, both of which require power.

Your primary task is to monitor the cameras, particularly the top one, where Sebastian should remain. If he leaves, he'll reach you quickly and end your game. Regularly check the cameras for anomalies and periodically turn around to check the doors. Sound cues are more distinct when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.

When you notice the lights flickering around 2 AM on the first night, turn around and close the doors as Angler will soon charge down the hall. Around this time, Painter's pop-ups will appear on your camera screen, which you can safely ignore as they're meant to distract you.

We recommend turning around every 10 seconds or upon hearing strange noises. 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 his advance. Follow these tips, and you'll reach the end of your shift at 6 AM.

Second Night Walkthrough

By 1 AM on the second night, you won't encounter any monsters yet. Keep checking the cameras and flash if you notice anything unusual. If you hear strange sounds, turn around and close the doors; the first Angler attack occurs at 2 AM, just like the first night.

The camera footage will get dimmer around this time, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, especially those marked 1 and 2, and remember to turn around periodically.

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

Just before the end of the shift 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 than the previous two. Sebastian escapes the top camera mere seconds into your shift, followed by an Angler attack 30 seconds later. Forget your past 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 faster and stronger, making reactions challenging on your first attempt. Unlike the previous nights, where the first attack came around 2 AM, you'll face four attacks tonight.

Following two door attacks at around 3 AM, the night becomes even more intense. You'll need to keep the doors closed more often, but monitor your power levels closely. The hours between 4 AM and 5 AM are the most challenging, balancing flashing Sebastian with 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 the third night (or the second), you can restart from the beginning of that night. Successfully surviving all three nights completes the event, and you'll earn the Connection Terminated badge for your efforts.
