Section Notes

Map regions, quest steps, side choices, collectible entries, and cleanup routes for Alan Wake 2. The current goal is to separate Watery’s story blockers from its later cleanup routes so players do not mix both on the first pass.

Map priorities right now

  • Watery progression comes before full cleanup.
  • Treat Coffee World progression and Cult Stash cleanup as two different passes.
  • This hub will later branch into Nursery Rhymes, Charms, and Watery Lighthouse pages.
