If you're already familiar with Five Nights at Freddy's, you'll easily grasp the gameplay mechanics. For those accustomed to Pressure, you'll recognize the monsters and know how to combat them. Below, we provide a detailed guide for surviving each night.

First Night Walkthrough

You start in a camera control room with surveillance footage in front of you and two doors behind that you can open and close. Remember, closing the doors drains your power, and running out of power means game over. Your main defenses against the monsters are flashing them or closing the doors, both of which require power.

Your primary task across all three nights is to monitor the cameras, especially the top one. Sebastian should always be visible there; if he leaves, he'll quickly reach and kill you. Regularly check the cameras for anomalies and periodically turn around to check the doors. The sound is clearer when not in camera mode, helping you anticipate threats.

When you notice the lights flickering, usually around 2 AM on the first night, turn around and close the doors as Angler will soon charge down the hall. You'll also encounter your first pop-ups from Painter on the camera screen; you can close and ignore these as they're meant to distract you.

Our advice is to turn around every 10 seconds or whenever you hear a strange noise. Keep browsing 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 him from advancing too far. Follow these tips, and you'll reach the end of your shift at 6 AM.

Second Night Walkthrough

Until 1 AM on the second night, you won't face any monsters. Continue checking the cameras and flash if you notice anything unusual. If 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 gets noticeably dimmer around this time, making it harder to see. Cycle through all the cameras frequently, especially those marked 1 and 2, and remember to turn around regularly.

Crooked, a new monster, appears on the second night. You can defend against him by noticing when he's at your doors and closing them for a few seconds. Pay closer attention to the cameras, as there will be more static and more frequent pop-ups. Try to close them quickly.

Just before the shift ends at 5 AM, you'll face two Angler attacks, one on each side. The last hour requires heightened vigilance to avoid distractions and ensure survival.

Third Night Walkthrough

The third night is significantly more challenging. Sebastian escapes the top camera mere seconds after your shift starts, followed by an Angler attack 30 seconds later. Focus on checking the cameras and turning around frequently.

After the first Angler attack, keep the door closed for a while before opening it again. The monsters are faster and stronger, making it tough to react in time, especially on your first playthrough. Expect four Angler attacks, with the first two around 2 AM.

Following the two door attacks at 3 AM, the night becomes even tougher. You'll need to keep the doors closed more often but monitor your power levels closely. The final two hours between 4 AM and 5 AM are the most challenging, requiring you to balance flashing Sebastian and conserving power. Save power at all costs, even if it means not flashing Sebastian if he's at camera 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 earns you the Connection Terminated badge.
