I’m replaying A Link to the Past (or as I’ve taken to calling it, Zelda III), and I’ve tried to 100% it from memory. Unfortunately, I wound up one heart piece short.

Before going to look up a guide and going through that checklist, I thought it might be fun to ask fellow humans.

What are some collectibles in this game or any others that you tend to miss, or just had trouble finding initially?

    I wish I could help but my last guide less playthrough didn’t have that problem… The others might be right about the tree, sanctuary rock or in Turtlerock (which is technically not in a dungeon but requires a weird exit).

    There’s quite a few weird places in the dark world mountains, though. Hope you let us know when you figure it out!

      I got the chance to play last night and sadly no luck on the suggested hearts.

      So I did end up checking a guide. Turns out it was… the one northeast of the desert (mirror back out of mire). With all the other stuff to collect and see in/around Misery Mire, I totally forgot this one existed. Oops!

        Oh I actually thought for a sec that it might be but I wasn’t sure enough it was a heart or just a random treasure! Shoot, I should have at least mentioned it. Grats, at least!

        Ah, Checkerboard cave.

        That one is not as easy to miss in randomizer because you do a whole loop of the area and get 5 checks with just the mirror, flute, and mitts
