+Spirits is an adventure game. In it, we will play the role of a skilled sorcerer. The story begins when an evil sorcerer steals our crystal ball, spell book and magic wand without which our powers are greatly diminished. In addition, it has enchanted the castle where we dwell, filling it with creatures of the night that guard our precious belongings.
-purpose to be achieved.
+Not content with that, he has also cast a spell on the castle princess and one of the armors. These two characters each carry one of the halves of the only spell capable of defeating such an evil sorcerer, who has transformed into an eagle to chase us throughout the castle. We must disenchant these two characters to recover the spell and be able to defeat the cause of our problems.
+===How to play===
+The game is divided into two screens. On the upper screen our character is shown and this is where the action takes place. In the lower one, we will see where the next objective or object to be achieved is located. When we start, we will only see where the crystal ball is, the main and indispensable object, without which the other objects and characters remain hidden from our eyes.
-At first, we just see where is the crystal ball, main purpose and essential, without which the other objects and characters are hidden from our eyes. Having gained the crystal ball, these objects were no longer invisible in the castle and we can recover them. In addition with the crystal ball in our possession, we can locate the other goals.
+Once the crystal ball is obtained, these objects will no longer be invisible in the castle and we can recover them. In addition, with the crystal ball in our possession, we can locate the rest of the objectives. The ball will show us on the lower screen the exact location of the spell book, the magic wand, the princess and the armor, as well as the sorcerer transformed into an eagle.
-The ball will show us on the lower screen the exact location of the book of spells, magic wand, the Princess and armor, as well as the magician transformed into an eagle. With the corresponding buttons we can change the object or character that we want to see on the bottom screen. Next you’ll get the book of spells and magic wand. Once we have these items in our possession, we will save the princess and disenchanting armor, which we provide half of each his spell to defeat the sorcerer.
+The next thing will be to recover the spell book and the magic wand. Once we have these objects in our possession, we will have to disenchant the princess and the armor, which will each provide us with their half of the spell to defeat the sorcerer.

+Remember that there are several enemies in the castle, from which we can only defend ourselves by dodging them or by casting a short-term paralyzing spell, which will give us time to flee from them. Shooting the eagle without the final spell is totally useless and contact with it is certain death.
