What you’d usually expect from an April Fools game update is a playful array of jokes and lighthearted pranks on the players. However, the developers of Pressure took a different approach this year by introducing a new game mode inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s. Named Three Nights at the Blacksite, this mode is anything but humorous. Here’s a detailed guide on how to survive all three nights in this chilling new experience.

How to Survive in Three Nights at the Blacksite Pressure

If you’re familiar with Five Nights at Freddy’s, the gameplay mechanics will feel intuitive. For those well-versed in Pressure, you’ll recognize the monsters and know how to combat them. Below, you’ll find a detailed guide on surviving each night.
First Night Walkthrough

You start in a camera control room, monitoring surveillance footage. Behind you are two doors that can be opened and closed, but remember, closing them drains your power, and once it's depleted, it's game over. The only ways to fend off monsters are by flashing them or closing the doors, both of which require power.
Your primary task throughout the three nights is to monitor the cameras, particularly 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 turn around to check the doors periodically. Sounds are clearer when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.

When the lights start flickering around 2 AM, turn around and close the doors to brace for Angler’s imminent charge. Around this time, Painter will start sending pop-ups on your camera screen, which you can safely ignore.
We recommend turning around every 10 seconds or at any unusual sound. Keep cycling through the camera footage, flashing when 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 reach 6 AM and the end of your shift.
Second Night Walkthrough

Until 1 AM on the second night, you'll face no immediate threats. Continue checking the cameras and flash if you notice anything unusual. When you hear strange noises, turn around and close the doors; Angler’s first attack occurs at 2 AM, similar to the first night.
The camera footage will become noticeably dimmer, making it harder to see. Cycle through all cameras frequently, especially 1 and 2, and don't forget to turn around.
Crooked, a new monster, appears tonight. Defend against him by closing the doors briefly when he's detected at them. Pay closer attention to the cameras as static increases, and deal with more frequent pop-ups.
Just before the shift ends at 5 AM, brace for two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour is the most critical part of the entire playthrough. Stay vigilant and avoid distractions.
Third Night Walkthrough

The third night is significantly more challenging. 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 first Angler attack, keep the door closed longer before reopening. Monsters are faster and more aggressive, making reactions tougher, especially with four attacks tonight.
After two door attacks around 3 AM, the challenge intensifies. Keep doors closed more often while monitoring power levels. The most demanding hours are 4 AM and 5 AM, where you must balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Our advice is to save power, even if it means not flashing Sebastian when he's at cameras A1, B1, or C1.

If you fail on the third (or second) night, you can restart from the beginning of that night. Surviving all three nights completes the event and earns you the Connection Terminated badge.
