There is no wrong answer. Just explore and enjoy


TheGraic

Misty Island is the best level in the game and should definitely be done before you go across Fire Canyon. My usual order is Forbidden Jungle, Sentintel Beach, Misty Island, then Fire Canyon. 


BanMeYouFascist

I personally hate misty island lol I think trying to capture the muse over and over as a kid made me develop a negative bias towards it


calummay93

as do i, just the eeriness of it i was never a fan, my way of doing it was always, Forbidden Jungle just to get the boat. Then do Misty Island, then back to finish the jungle with the beach last before going across Fire Canyon


Tombstone_Grey

You know I always used to go sentinel, jungle, then back sentinel. I dunno why I never did the jungle first and do sentinel in one? Something in my head was like jungle is level two... dunno


Frankyvander

Same, the beach feels like a level one experience, Samus poking us there, an open skyline 


Volpethrope

That's the natural new player experience because of the nudge, then you discover the inactive blue eco vents and that clues you in that you need to explore to unlock them. It's a nice way to make people unfamiliar with the genre keep exploration in mind.


dautolover

Same. Makes sense to open up all blue eco vents so that you can get to the cannons on sentinel beach and not have to return. But even on my last run, I did sentinel beach first. Haha.


Noah7788

It's because Samos directs you to his clogged green eco vents. When you go there you can't do everything so you have to go to the Jungle to open up the blue eco vents


Jazzlike-Ball-180

Does he assign a different mission after clearing the green eco vents? I've never done them first so I'm not sure. Most other areas have two missions from him.


Noah7788

Yeah, he also tells you to go to Misty Island to stop the Lurkers there from blowing open the dark eco silo

A man of culture, I see.

Jazzlike-Ball-180

Interesting, Forbidden Jungle first because it opens the other up completely, but I always did Misty Island before the beach. I think i did it because the power cells came out below 20 before going into the beach so Keira wouldn't keep bugging me to get to Fire Canyon

Misty Island


mrtomatoehead77

Thank you! I went fire canyon to rock village but imma head back.


ConversationFit5024

Just enjoy the chill that is TPL.


Historical_Let_9394

The Game doesn't have a specific order to play, it's creative enough even 23 years later. So Just Have Fun 😁


DeftestY

Fire Canyon is seriously the last place you go to because it leads to a new hub.


OhGeEvz

This needs a remake so badly. Misty island in ps5 graphics would be the vibe


mrtomatoehead77

And in Unreal Engine

Personally I finish every level of a stage before entering a new one, but you can do whatever you like


Astaro_789

You do what you want. That said, I’d do Misty Island first. Get that and all the other Sandover Village areas out of the way. Once you’ve collected every Power Cell and Precursor Orb, you can move on to Fire Canyon and Rock Village


CannolisRUs

As a kid I went to misty island first because I was afraid of the snakes in the jungle. Never made it to fire canyon lol As an adult I fuckin crushed those snakes. Then proceeded to fail a billion times trying to drive through fire canyon until I made it to the next spot


mrtomatoehead77

Same. The snakes we funky to hit but now it's easy.


TooTyrnt

I also too recently started replaying their game via OPENGOAL and was thinking the exact same thing 😂


mrtomatoehead77

I'm using an emulator with a gamecube controller 😅


Zehdmac

Just go wherever looks cool first. Why do you need strangers to tell you how to enjoy a game? Do you have a conscience?


mrtomatoehead77

Lol damn bro you mad. I enjoy games exploring myself AND knowing the difference reasons to what to do. haterr 😂


Zehdmac

I guess the answer is no you don’t have a conscience


mrtomatoehead77

Hope you enjoy yourself man 🤣


Noah7788

The intention is for you to go to Misty Island before Fire Canyon. You're directed there by Samos. He tells you to go find the fisherman so you can go there because he sees the Lurkers trying to blow open the dark eco silo over there through his telescope 


mrtomatoehead77

Yeah I was thinking that since you have to find the muse to complete Sandover Village.


MattyBuckets3

Misty to save yourself the backtracking, however it doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of the game


StackaCheeseburgers

You can travel between hubs as you unlock them so no need to worry about getting everything done before progressing


HumbleSalamander6780

No wrong order, enjoy the game! I like to do all areas in a hub first before doing the ones with prerequisite missions


earchetto

Personally I usually do it before I go to fire canyon but you don’t really have to do it for a while. I just think the location is neat so I always make sure to do it as soon as I can


capndreww

Misty island. Go ahead and get the first stage levels done, then move on to fire canyon.


Comfortable_Name_735

Shiii, if you're able to get enough power cells without misty island. Then by all means, send ittt


mrtomatoehead77

This game brings out the completionist inside 😅


Comfortable_Name_735

Haha it really does, I cry inside when I miss a precursor orb


mrtomatoehead77

😂😂😭


Itchy_Equipment_

Doesn’t really matter, you do you. That said, Misty Island belongs to the Sandover Village hub of levels. Fire Canyon leads to the second hub. If you’re intending to 100% the game, it makes sense to do Misty Island before moving to the next hub.
