How to Beat the Eye Monster (Peeper) in R.E.P.O.
The Peeper is a stealthy, ceiling-dwelling adversary that's difficult to detect. This giant eyeball spawns randomly across the map and remains closed until you're within its range. Once it senses your presence, the Peeper opens, locking your gaze and preventing you from looking away, causing a steady drain of two HP points per second. While its damage output is not the most lethal, the disorientation it causes can leave you vulnerable to other threats.

It’s crucial to always be prepared for a Peeper to appear anywhere, and to have an escape plan in mind. The most effective tactic is to break line of sight by moving around a corner or through a door. If you can manage it, closing the door can completely sever the Peeper's hypnotic effect. In team play, having a teammate close the door for you can make this strategy even more effective. The key is to keep moving and stay composed.

It may take several shots to bring down this eye monster, and using the gun while under its influence can be challenging. However, with a calm approach, it's achievable. As with many challenges in *R.E.P.O.*, teamwork can significantly ease the task.
