If you're a fan of Pressure, you might be surprised by the April Fools update. Instead of the usual lighthearted pranks, the developers have introduced a chilling new game mode called Three Nights at the Blacksite, heavily inspired by Five Nights at Freddy's. This mode is far from funny, and surviving it requires careful strategy and attention. Here's your comprehensive guide to surviving all three nights in Three Nights at the Blacksite.

If you're familiar with Five Nights at Freddy's, the gameplay mechanics will be second nature. For Pressure veterans, you'll know which monsters to expect and how to combat them. Below is a detailed walkthrough for each night to ensure you make it to the end.
First Night Walkthrough

You start in a camera control room with surveillance footage in front of you and two doors behind. Remember, closing the doors drains your power, and running out of power means game over. Your only defenses against monsters are flashing them or closing the doors, both of which require power.
Your primary task is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one, where Sebastian should remain. If he leaves, he'll quickly reach you and end your game. Regularly check the cameras for anomalies and occasionally turn to check the doors. Sounds are clearer when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.

When the lights flicker around 2 AM, close the doors to brace for Angler's charge down the hall. You'll also encounter pop-ups from Painter on the camera screen; these are distractions you can ignore.
Turn around every 10 seconds or at any unusual noise. Continuously cycle through the camera footage and flash if you suspect Sebastian's presence. If he's not on the top camera, quickly check cameras 1 and 2 to prevent his advance. Follow these tips, and you'll reach 6 AM safely.
Second Night Walkthrough

Until 1 AM, you won't face any monsters. Keep monitoring the cameras and flash at any odd sightings. At the first strange sound, turn around and close the doors; Angler's first attack occurs at 2 AM, similar to the first night.
Camera footage becomes dimmer, and image quality worsens, so cycle through all cameras frequently, especially 1 and 2. Remember to turn around regularly.
Crooked, a new monster, appears tonight. Spot him at your doors and close them briefly to defend. Pay closer attention to the cameras as static increases and pop-ups become more frequent.
Just before 5 AM, brace for two Angler attacks, one on each side. The final hour requires heightened vigilance and focus.
Third Night Walkthrough

Night three is significantly tougher. Sebastian escapes the top camera almost immediately, followed by an Angler attack within 30 seconds. Focus solely on checking cameras and turning around.
After the initial Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before reopening. Monsters are faster and stronger, making quick reactions challenging. Expect four Angler attacks tonight, compared to the first two nights.
Post the 3 AM attacks, the night intensifies. You'll need to keep doors closed more often, but monitor your power closely. The last two hours, 4 AM and 5 AM, are the most challenging as you balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Save power at all costs, even if it means not flashing Sebastian when he's at cameras A1, B1, or C1.

If you fail on nights two or three, you can restart from the beginning of that night. Surviving all three nights completes the event, earning you the Connection Terminated badge.
