How to Beat the Eye Monster (Peeper) in R.E.P.O.
The Peeper, a formidable ceiling-dwelling creature, is notoriously difficult to spot. This giant eyeball remains closed until you enter its range, spawning unpredictably across the map. Once it detects you, the Peeper opens its eye, capturing your gaze and locking you into a hypnotic stare that inflicts two points of damage per second to your HP. While the Peeper ranks low in terms of overall threat, its disorienting effect can be particularly troublesome, especially when your view zooms in on the eyeball, limiting your awareness of other dangers around you.

To counter the Peeper, always stay vigilant, as it can appear anywhere. Plan your movements carefully, keeping potential escape routes in mind. The best strategy is to break the Peeper's line of sight by moving around a corner or through a doorway. If possible, shutting the door can sever its gaze, and having a teammate assist in closing it makes this maneuver even smoother. It's crucial to remain calm and keep moving to avoid panic.
