Quick notes

  • Key characters and figures. The central cast and a few useful guest characters explain both the story and the movement options.
  • How these playable characters are reached. This is a selective directory focused on shared campaign and Warp Zone characters.
  • Boss encounters use movement rather than attacks. Dr. Fetus is the story’s enemy, but standard play is about reaching a route’s exit.
  • Learn a guest before replaying a difficult stage. A new character can invalidate familiar timing.
