Three throwing stars recharge over time. Deflect incoming stars during the cutting part of Slash to fill three Focus marks. Your next third sword strike releases a clearing wave. Guardian tells: aim = dodge or deflect; fan = find the gap; charge = sidestep; ring = jump.

On a phone, use the left stick to move. Swipe an empty area on the right to turn the camera. Sword attacks turn toward a nearby enemy.
