A medium who guesses correctly with a single vision gains one clairvoyancy level.
In the final phase, the level determines how many of the ghost's visions you can see.
FINAL PHASE
Once all mediums have solved their three elements, the final phase begins.
The ghost reveals one vision for each possible solution and the mediums vote for the correct one.
