Location: Phase 3
Attacks: Fireballs, rolling attack
Threat: Yes

Arachnus is a bipedal, armadillo-type miniboss. When you first encounter it, it is posed as an Item Sphere. It is immune to all your attacks except Bombs. For an advantage, trap it behind the Chozo statue and drop bombs on him. He drops the Spring Ball power-up.

Manual description: "It will roll up its body like an armadillo, then rush at Samus."

Metroids[edit]

See the Metroids page for more information.

Location: Phase 3, Phase 4
Attacks: Jumping
Threat: Barely

Location: Phase 4
Attacks: Flamethrower, shooting straight down
Threat: Fair

Automs are flamethrower robots that rise and shoot flames straight down to hit Samus. They're indestructible, so avoid them.

Manual description: "Watch out for this robot's severe firepower."

Autrack[edit]

File:Autrack sprite (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 3, Phase 4
Attacks: Rises from ground and shoots laser
Threat: Minimum

Autracks are robots that shoot lasers on a track when Samus comes close. Its arm extends for shooting and retracts for reloading.

Manual description: "This robotic guardian can be found in various places. They have a long neck that is usually withdrawn, but it will extend it and attack with a laser beam."

Blob[edit]

File:Blob sprite (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 3
Threat: No

Blobs are thrown by Blob Throwers. They disintegrate a few seconds after launch.

Blob Thrower[edit]

File:Blob thrower sprite (Return of Samus).png

File:Blob thrower artwork (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 3
Threat: Minimum

Blob Throwers are flower-shaped enemies that spit out Blobs at Samus and contact or the latter will harm you. Shoot at their orifice (where the petals hang from) without their Wave Beam.

Manual description: "This plant creature spits out little blobs."

Chute Leech[edit]

File:Chute leech sprite (Return of Samus).png

File:Chute leech artwork (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 3
Threat: Minimum

Chute Leeches are pancake shaped enemies. When Samus gets close, it jumps into the air and glides down to harm her. Kill as normally.

Drivel[edit]

File:Drivel sprite (Return of Samus).png

File:Drivel artwork (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 7
Threat: Fair

Drivels are airborne enemies that shoot acid when Samus gets close. The acid causes an explosion. Shoot the acid for an Energy Capsule.

Manual description: "They move back and forth in the air. When Samus approaches, they will spit a strong liquid acid."

Gawron[edit]

File:Gawron sprite (Return of Samus).png

File:Gawron artwork (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 1, Phase 2
Threat: Possible

Gawrons are odd creatures. They come out of holes to ram you. This becomes predictable after a few times.

Manual description: "This enemy lives in a nest with many of its kind. When Samus approaches, they will start attacking, one after another."

Other[edit]

Flitt[edit]

File:Flitt artwork (Return of Samus).png

Location: Phase 6
Threat: Fair

A Flitt is a amoeba-like organism. They do not harm you but instead disappear from you, which makes it difficult to use them as obstacles.

Manual description: "Samus will not receive any damage even if she touches them. Look closely for them, as they have a tendency to conceal themselves."
