different sequences.

Finishing Moves
The more creative that Jack is in his swordﬁghting the fuller the
Swordsmanship Meter becomes. This enables him to use one of four
special Finishing Moves. You unlock each one as you progress in the
game. Defeated enemies drop different pickups and, the fuller your
Swordsmanship Meter is, the better the pickup that is dropped.
These moves can only be done at certain times. When you’re
prompted on screen to use one, hold down the

and press the

and

buttons as appropriate. If you press it quickly

enough you’ll get a special reward.

UNARMED COMBAT

Sometimes two ﬁsts and a well-placed boot are more useful than

Knocking enemies into walls or tables will injure them more than
a punch alone. Even better, grab them and throw them off a
handy balcony.

In mass brawls you’ll be facing gangs of ﬁghters. Simply ﬂick the
