    I may be wrong but I think this is missable. You can miss the map in the first area and you can lock yourself out of a section on dungeon 3?

    Somehow i managed to get all "open all chests" achievements without getting this one. I definitely didn't miss the very first map in hyrule castle. Should that be possible?

    I'm in Ganon's tower and my achievement progress on this is 22/23. Starting to get a little concerned. I already have the map and compass in this dungeon. I've opened every chest in every previous dungeon (according to the achievements).

    So where is this thing? I don't even know if it's a map or a compass I'm looking for.

    And yeah the two guys above are correct. If for some reason you don't grab the map in the Rescue Zelda prologue dungeon that makes this achievement missable.

    How could I have opened every chest in the The light world, every chest in the dark world, every chest in every dungeon, but still not have this achievement. I might submit an unlock ticket.

    The only thing I could think of is an achievement / save mishap. Maybe in one dungeon I got the achievement for opening all the chests, but then didn't save.

    I'm going to open a memory inspector and find out exactly which one of these I missed.

    Solved it. If anyone else has a similar issue the likely cause is you reset/quit without saving after unlocking the relevant "open every chest" achievement.

    In my case I reset to retry a boss achievement. This was before I had the magic mirror to retry more easily. I must have collected the map, went to the boss, failed the attempt, reset the game and then skipped the map on the subsequent attempt.

    And yeah I'm patting myself on the back for using RALibRetro to see which map and compass bits hadn't been flipped. Big old '0' for "0x00F0E8 - Bit4 Chest Desert Palace, map"
