Words of Wisdom
The pointing hand will show you when it is time to move to the next screen, but test the next screen first rather than charging into the unknown. You can use enemies weapons if they drop them. Be careful when throwing weapons. Timing is everything and you don't want to waste a weapon on a weak enemy before encoutering a really tough enemy. After mission one, you can practice your moves in the Dojo before you enter the door. There is no time limit to how long you can spend in the Dojo.
