Challenge Mode in *Phasmophobia* is an exciting weekly feature that resets every Sunday, offering players a unique ghost-hunting contract with specific conditions and equipment. These challenges vary in difficulty, from manageable tasks similar to regular investigations to intense scenarios that push your skills to the brink. The mode adjusts ghost behavior and may limit your equipment, making each challenge a fresh test of your ghost-hunting expertise.
To successfully complete a weekly challenge, you need to fulfill the preset contract three times before the weekly reset. You don’t have to do it consecutively, but you must correctly identify the ghost each time to count towards your challenge completion. While optional objectives aren’t mandatory, completing them can boost your points, which is great if you’re aiming to prestige your character.
Successfully completing a weekly challenge rewards you with a base amount of $5,000, plus any additional points earned during the contracts.

The Do As I Command Challenge in *Phasmophobia* is considered one of the more manageable challenges in the mode. It features minimal alterations to ghost behavior and provides you with a full Tier 3 equipment loadout, making it less daunting than other challenges. The task is set on the Sunny Meadows map, but note that the “Restricted” version is not permitted.
Upon starting the challenge, you'll find that the ghost exhibits less activity than usual, requiring you to "force" it to provide evidence. Fortunately, the fuse box is functional, so be sure to turn it on immediately to aid your investigation.

A unique aspect of this challenge is the availability of all seven Cursed Possessions, conveniently located in the chapel. Tools like the Haunted Mirror and Ouija Board can speed up locating the ghost, while the Voodoo Doll and Monkey Paw can provoke the ghost into revealing evidence. Be cautious, though, as these items can drain your sanity and trigger cursed hunts.
That wraps up the guide on completing the Do As I Command Challenge in *Phasmophobia*. For more tips and tricks, be sure to explore other guides and news at The Escapist, including how to tackle the Tortoise and Hare challenge.
