If you're eager to test your ghost-hunting prowess in *Phasmophobia*, the Challenge Mode is your ultimate proving ground, and the Do As I Command Challenge is a perfect entry point. Here's everything you need to know about tackling this intriguing challenge.
What Is Challenge Mode in Phasmophobia?
Challenge Mode in *Phasmophobia* is a dynamic weekly feature that thrusts you into a preset contract with unique conditions and equipment. Resetting every Sunday, it presents a new challenge that can range from manageable to intensely demanding. The mode tests your skills by tweaking ghost behaviors or limiting your gear, forcing you to adapt and strategize.
To successfully conquer a weekly challenge, you're required to complete the preset contract three times before the week ends. These completions don't need to be consecutive, but you must correctly identify the ghost during each attempt for it to count towards your overall challenge completion. While optional objectives aren't mandatory, fulfilling them can boost your score, which is crucial if you aim to prestige your character.
Completing a weekly challenge rewards you with a base sum of $5,000, plus any additional points earned throughout your contracts.

How To Complete Do As I Command Challenge in Phasmophobia
The Do As I Command Challenge stands out as one of the more approachable options in Challenge Mode. It features minimal alterations to ghost behavior and equipment, making it a gentler introduction to the mode. The challenge's goal is to "force this ghost to give you evidence," indicating that the ghost will be less active than usual. You'll embark on this contract at the Sunny Meadows map, but note that the "Restricted" version is off-limits.
You'll start with a full Tier 3 loadout, supplied at no cost, ensuring you have all the necessary tools to succeed. The fuse box is also operational, so be sure to activate it upon arrival to maximize your visibility and safety.
While Sunny Meadows can be challenging due to its size and the ghost's subdued nature, the Do As I Command Challenge offers a significant advantage: access to all seven Cursed Possessions. Located in the chapel, these items can be game-changers.
Tools like the Haunted Mirror or Ouija Board can quickly reveal the ghost's location, while the Voodoo Doll or Monkey Paw can provoke the ghost into providing evidence. However, use these items cautiously as they can drain your sanity and trigger cursed hunts.
