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

The Peeper is a sneaky ceiling-dwelling enemy that's tough to spot. This giant eyeball spawns in random locations across the map, remaining closed until you venture into its vicinity. The moment it senses your presence, the Peeper 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 holds you captive. While the Peeper's damage output is relatively low, ranking it in the lowest tier of danger, its disorienting effect can be particularly troublesome, especially when it zooms your POV onto the eyeball, making it difficult to navigate or escape from other threats.

To effectively counter the Peeper, always be mindful of its potential to spawn anywhere. Keep a clear escape route in mind, such as a corner or a doorway. If you can, move to a position where you can break the line of sight. Shutting a door can sever the Peeper's gaze, and if you're with a teammate, having them close the door for you can make this maneuver even smoother. The key is to stay calm and keep moving without panicking.

The only way to eliminate a Peeper is by using the 'Gun', which you can purchase at the Service Station for approximately $47K. It may take several shots to bring down this eye monster. Although it's challenging to aim while under the Peeper's spell, it's possible if you remain composed. As with many challenges in *R.E.P.O.*, having a teammate by your side can significantly ease the task.
