When you think of an April Fools' game update, you expect playful pranks and humorous tweaks to the gameplay. However, the developers of *Pressure* took a different route by introducing a chilling new game mode inspired by *Five Nights at Freddy's* called *Three Nights at the Blacksite*. This mode is far from a laughing matter, offering a tense and gripping experience. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to survive all three nights in *Three Nights at the Blacksite*.

If you're already a fan of Five Nights at Freddy's, the gameplay mechanics will feel familiar. For Pressure veterans, you'll recognize the monsters and know how to tackle them. Here's a detailed guide to help you survive night by night.
You start in a camera control room with surveillance footage at your fingertips. Behind you are two doors that you can open and close, but remember, closing them drains your power, and once it's gone, it's game over. Your primary defense against the monsters is to either flash them or close the doors, both of which require power.
Your main task across all three nights is to monitor the cameras, especially 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 turn around to inspect the doors. Sound cues 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 pop-ups from Painter on the camera screen, which you can close and ignore as they're meant to distract you.
We recommend turning around every 10 seconds or when you hear unusual noises. Continuously browse through the camera footage and flash whenever you suspect Sebastian's presence. If he's not at the top camera, quickly check cameras 1 and 2 to prevent him from advancing too far. Follow these tips, and you'll make it to 6 AM, ending your shift successfully.
Until 1 AM on the second night, you'll face no immediate threats. Keep checking the cameras and flash if you notice anything unusual. When you hear strange noises, turn around and close the doors. The first Angler attack occurs at 2 AM, similar to the first night.
The camera footage becomes dimmer around this time, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, focusing on those marked 1 and 2, and don't forget to turn around regularly.
A new monster, Crooked, appears tonight. You'll need to spot him standing at your doors and close them briefly to defend yourself. Pay more attention to the cameras due to increased static and more frequent pop-ups, which you should close quickly.
Just before the shift ends at 5 AM, you'll face two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour of the night demands the highest level of vigilance to avoid distractions and ensure your survival.
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. You'll need to adapt quickly, focusing on checking 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 tough to react in time. Unlike the previous nights, where the first attack came around 2 AM, you'll face four attacks tonight.
Following the two door attacks around 3 AM, the night intensifies. You'll need to keep the doors closed more often but manage your power levels carefully. The last two hours, from 4 AM to 5 AM, are the most challenging, requiring you to balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Save power whenever possible, even if it means not flashing Sebastian when 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. Successfully surviving all three nights completes the event, and you'll earn the Connection Terminated badge as a reward.
