What you’d usually expect from an April Fools game update is jokes and lighthearted pranks on the players. Instead, the developers of Pressure decided to introduce a new game mode heavily inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s, and trust us, there’s nothing funny or lighthearted about it. Here’s how to survive all three nights in Three Nights at the Blacksite.

How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure

If you’re familiar with Five Nights at Freddy’s, you’ll have no problem understanding the gameplay mechanics. On the other hand, if you’re familiar with Pressure, you’ll know which monsters to expect and how to combat them. In any case, below you’ll find a detailed guide on surviving night by night.
First Night Walkthrough

You start in a camera control room, with footage from surveillance cameras in front of you. Behind you are two doors that can be opened and closed. Keep in mind that closing the doors depletes your power, and once you’re out of power, it’s game over. The only two ways to combat oncoming monsters are to flash them or close your doors, both of which require power.
Your main task during all three nights is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one. Sebastian should remain there at all times, because if he leaves, he’ll quickly reach you and kill you. Regularly check the cameras for any anomalies, and remember to turn around and check the doors periodically. The sound is louder and clearer when you’re not in camera mode, which is crucial for anticipating threats.

When you notice the lights flickering (which first happens around 2 AM on N1), turn around and close the doors as Angler will soon charge down the hall to attack you. Around this time, you’ll also encounter your first pop-ups on the camera screen from Painter, which you can close and ignore as they’re meant to distract you.
Our recommendation is to turn around every 10 seconds or so, or whenever you hear a strange noise. Meanwhile, keep browsing through the camera footage and flash whenever you suspect Sebastian’s presence. If you can’t find him at the top camera, quickly check cameras marked 1 and 2 to prevent his advance. Follow these tips, and you’ll reach 6 AM, the end of the shift, in no time.

By 1 AM on N2, you won’t face any monsters yet. Just keep checking the cameras and flash if you see anything unusual. When you hear something strange, turn around and close the doors – the first Angler attack occurs at 2 AM, just like N1.
The camera footage becomes noticeably dimmer around this time. With the reduced image quality, your best strategy is to cycle through all cameras frequently, especially those marked 1 and 2. Don’t forget to turn around regularly!
Crooked is a new monster introduced this night. You’ll defend against him by noticing him when he’s at your doors and closing them just then for a few seconds. You also need to pay closer attention to the cameras, as there will now be more static in your footage. The pop-ups become more frequent during this night, so close them as quickly as possible.
Just before the end of the shift, when the clock hits 5 AM, you’ll face two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour of the night is where you need to be most vigilant throughout your playthrough. Stay alert and avoid distractions.

As expected, N3 is significantly harder than N1 and N2. Sebastian escapes the top camera mere seconds after your shift starts, followed by an Angler attack some 30 seconds later. Forget everything from the past two nights except checking the cameras and turning around.
When the first Angler attack happens, keep the door closed for some time before reopening it. The monsters are now stronger and faster, making it challenging to react in time on your first playthrough. Unlike the previous two nights where the first attack was around 2 AM, you’ll now face four attacks.
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 be mindful of your power levels. The hours between 4 AM and 5 AM are the most challenging, requiring you to balance between flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Our tip is to save power at all costs, even if it means not flashing Sebastian (but only if he’s at camera A1, B1, or C1).

A consolation is that if you lose at N3 (or N2), you can restart from the beginning of the night. Once you survive all three nights, you’ve completed the event! You’ll also earn the Connection Terminated badge for your efforts.
