Quick notes
- Restore the regional energy in order. Agon Wastes, Torvus Bog and Sanctuary Fortress each have a dark-world temple guardian.
- Take each movement upgrade seriously. Boost Ball, Spider Ball, Gravity Boost and Screw Attack change which routes Samus can traverse.
- Return to U-Mos after major progress. U-Mos provides direction and rewards as the energy-restoration mission advances.
- Keep regional keys separate from the finale. Each regional dark temple uses a set of three keys.
