Quick start
Press START, highlight NEW GAME with Up, and confirm with A or B. Choose FAST, NORMAL, or SLOW message speed with the direction pad and confirm. Outside a building, use A or B to inspect it and Up to enter. Begin by keeping enemies at kicking distance with A, then talk to the resident once the room is clear. Save scrolls for lessons and search for three jade pieces before confronting the boss.

Phantom Fighter — About this game
Phantom Fighter is a martial-arts adventure built around a choice of buildings rather than one uninterrupted fighting stage. Kenchi and his pupil travel between houses, temples, and training grounds, entering rooms where kyonshi wait for a close-range duel. Jumping, crouching, and keeping your kick at the right distance matter more than rushing forward. Rescued residents reward victories with information or useful items, and ancient scrolls can be exchanged for stronger kung-fu skills after a dojo quiz. Temples help restore strength, while three jade pieces are required to reach the village boss. Passwords let you return to a later village without replaying the entire journey.
