In Spectral Sword, you *only get one chance* to hit an enemy. If you miss or use the incorrect phase colors you will die.

The aim of the game is to get to the exit (a glowing blue-white particle thing) while collecting coins and killing evil knights to increase your score.

Use the WASD keys to move forwards, left, back and right. Q and E turn you left and right.

To kill a knight you have to cast the correct spectral phases on your sword:

There are 3 phases and each phase can be a different color. Click a color chip under a phase name to charge the phase with that color.

Phases take a little time to charge. Make sure all phases you want to use are fully changed before you attack.

* Phase 1 color should be the same as the color of the Knight's body.

* Phase 2 color should be the same as the color of the Knight's shield if it has one.

* Phase 3 color should be the same color as the aura/glow surrounding the Knight if it has one.

You have to be right next to the Knight to hit it.

If the knight doesn't not have a shield or an aura, you don't have to set the phase 2 and 3 powers.
