How to Beat the Eye Monster (Peeper) in R.E.P.O.

The Peeper is a tricky adversary, lurking on ceilings and often spotting you before you notice it. This giant eyeball remains closed until you enter its vicinity, spawning unpredictably across the map.

Once the Peeper detects you, it opens its eye, locking your gaze and preventing you from looking away. This connection inflicts two points of damage to your HP every second it's maintained. While the Peeper's damage output is relatively low, ranking it in the lowest tier of danger, its ability to disorient you can be particularly troublesome, especially when it hampers your ability to navigate or escape from other threats.

When caught in the Peeper's gaze, your point of view zooms in on the eyeball, making it difficult to maneuver or sprint away from other enemies. To counter this, always be mindful of potential Peeper spawn points and maintain a clear escape route. The best strategy is to move around a corner or through a door. If possible, closing the door can break the Peeper's line of sight. If you're with a teammate, having them close the door for you can make this maneuver even smoother. The key is to keep moving and stay calm.

To defeat the Peeper, you'll need to use the 'Gun', available for purchase at the Service Station for approximately $47K. It may take several shots to bring down this eye monster. Although challenging to aim while under the Peeper's influence, it's manageable if you remain composed. As with many challenges in *R.E.P.O.*, having a teammate can significantly ease the process.
