How to unlock the Master Cartographer achievement in Carto - Definitive Guide

Here is my 100% Achievement guide and actual full walkthrough!
Originally, this achievement seemed to be buggy but a lot of reports have suggested you don't need to sit through this in one sitting, can come back to it anytime and this particular achievement will still unlock.

Otherwise, its an enjoyable game, timestamps for all levels and achievements will be below the video incase you need them for any particular part.

Hope the guide helps!
Enjoy :)

In order to do this you have to clear the game + the 6 puzzle pieces +the 2 extra achievements ( the books and the Hanoi tower ).

The bug that prevents the achievement to pop for a lot of people works like this:

When you exit the game you lose all your progress with the exception of saved games. What does that mean towards the achievement : if you had finished the game with all 6 puzzle pieces enter that save game and finish it again ( you now have the clearing the game + 6 puzzle pieces ); you still have the hanoi tower ( chapter 8-1) and the books, but for the books you will have to return to every chapter that includes the Chalet and read all the books plus Carto's book ( sometimes Carto's book must be read multiple times as it changes before and after the task in hand ).

So it isn't required to finish it in one sitting in theory, but i recommend that you do it without exiting the game. Took me around 2 hours.

A full and fast achievements guide in the video.

OK I fucked this up on my first play through, had everything but no books or 100% achievements. Got the books via chapter select and accidentally deleted my end game save.

So stated again with a view to doing it in one run. Missed the puzzle piece on chapter 6 so called it a night at chapter 7 and saved and quit. Finished the game just now still no achievement. So what I did was stared another save at chapter 2 got the puzzle piece save and quit, went to chapter 4 did the books save and quit out and did this for every other book and puzzle piece, bit popped on a book in chapter 6 and I assume this is because I had already done chapters 7-10 in that session.

I was deleting the new save each time keeping the finished game safe so I could use chapter select.

So while doing it in one go is probably the way to go , fi you mess up just do as I did above. Hope that helps anyone else stuck.

I started my third playthrough until the end collecting everything but I didn't earn achievement. I did a mistake on Hanoi tower, so after the end, I retried Hanoi by chapter select. I perfectly did this this time and achievement was unlocked (visited airship before Hanoi retry).

I did not get all of the books on my first playthrough so re-did the Chalet chapters through Chapter Select. Once I received the achievement for reading all books, my 100% completion did not pop. I re-did Chapter 8 Chalet and worked through the steps to get the Tower of Hanoi puzzle in the minimum number of steps (even though I already had this achievement). Upon completion my 100% achievement popped.

The 100% bug happened to me while getting all the Chalet stories. Replaying ch8 to do the book stacking puzzle, I didn't bother to do the Hanoi puzzle correctly the 2nd time around (after already having the achievement) which I guess saves a state in the your save file saying "this player didn't do the puzzle properly." Just do the book stacking again.

How do you jump from chapter to chapter? When I start one and save the only thing I can do is continue from that point

The glitch affect 3 achievements (Hanoi Tower, Voracious Reader, Visit the Airship) which prevent this final achievement to pop up. In order to get it right I had to replay chalet's chapters: 4-1, 6-1, 8-1, and 10-1, be aware to play Hanoi Tower correctly, and visit the Airship from main menu. You can Save & Exit and delete/create new files each time as long as you don't quit the game. It took me like 20 minutes.

Did as Kaede mentioned, making sure I checked entry ledger every time. Funny enough decided to explore and opened up the “volcano with a view” book and it popped. I suggest checking each room per each chalet chapter.

Best done in one sitting. I've had this game glitch twice now. For me it has happened if the game is closed after unlocking level select. The airship option disappears and level select no longer is available.

Was disappointing to unlock everything in the game to have this not unlock, even when I reloaded the last stage. The game is so pure and relaxing and its achievements do not match this purity, unfortunately.

Mine was a silent pop, so I can’t say if it was reloading the game (last save file at end of game) or loading the airship a second time. I did it all in one sitting and took 4 hrs and 16 min If any one was looking for a more accurate time estimation.

Didn't work for me. I had done everything on one save, but I had missed a book somewhere. I used save slots 2 and 3 to cycle through the chalet chapters again. Popped the book related achievement and completed the chalet 10 puzzle. Saved and quit to menu. Started up the save with everything (barring book achievement) on it and played through to 'THE END'. Nothing popped.

Update: Ran through the entire game again in one sitting. Still nothing. Eventually, I just tried the Hanoi Tower challenge on a standalone save. The achievement popped immediately after getting the DING on the third stage of the challenge.

Singularity's solution worked for me, extra note though... I had to do the Hanoi tower challenges in the minimum moves for each puzzle or it wouldn't pop! :) good luck

To add to the update news. The achievement popped for me when I started the game on the home screen. I did try several times without luck to get it to pop before the update so you may still have some work to do if it does not pop.

Another confirmation here of doing it in two sittings and getting all the achievements. Sitting 1: chapters 1-4, sitting 2: chapters 5-10, and everything unlocked fine.

100% completion. You don't need to do it in one sitting, exit the game if you like.

After finishing the game and watching the credits you'll be redirected to the main menu, select "Secrets" from the menu and then there will be an option called "Airship". I selected it and it sent me to the Granny's Airship and the last two achievements popped up for me.

Can confirm you don't have to finish this game in one sitting.

This doesn't need to be completed on one save file. Using chapter select will unlock it once all other achievements are earned.

Edit: This may require being completed in one sitting without exiting the game.

As noted in the comments, the Hanoi puzzle completion is also required, if you're missing something try the puzzle again.

It didn't unlock for me too. The Game has some serious post-game save issues on Xbox One. If you miss something after you complete the game and you redoing it via chapter select and you close the game and boot it up again it didn't even know you completed it. (No Capter select available) I had no problems on the Win 10 version of the Game, it unlocked for me WITH exiting the game multiple times.

It doesn't unlock for me. I restart a game from the beginning. I finished with 6 puzzle pieces, 4 fly papers, boots and amulet at the last save. Others items are required?

I believe all the achievements count towards progress for 100%, do you have all of them except this one? I went to the airship and read through all the concept art, but my achievement popped along with the one for reading all books which was my last achievement.

I played through the game once, then used chapter select to get the secret achievements. I even deleted the chapter select saves afterwards, so my only saves when I got the achievement were my original run and one in the Chalet where I read my last book. It sounds like you've done everything I did, I'd try getting another secret puzzle piece, see if the saving mechanic will trigger the achievement.

Tried to get again another puzzle piece, read again books, cleared cache. But when I launch the game from dashboard, chapter select is disabled, i can't go in the airship. I have to reload my file and watch ending for enable chapter and airship. For now I'll take a break with this game and see if others people have this issue

I think you have to do 100% without exiting the game. Or if you have a saved game with x % finish that game because when you restart it wont give you the saved game and do the 100-x%

It should pop if you do all achievements in one run. The problem is if you already done all achievements - how can you count

I can confirm that it is NOT required to get all the achievements in a single playthrough. I did most of them through chapter select and this achievement unlocked when I did my last one (Towering Intellect for me).

Just got it on my second playthrough, I think you must meet the all requirements of other 19 achievements in one sit, no matter you have some of the achievements unlocked or not. Save slot doesn't matter.

I completed the game over the course of 2 days, definitely exiting in between. I unlocked all the achievements on that split run except for reading everything.
Used chapter select to go back through and re-read everything to get that to unlock which left me at 19/20 and scratching my head.

Clicked on the secrets menu option to revisit the airship and the 100% popped. Can't explain why, but success!

Too bad this achievement is glitchy as I otherwise really loved the game.

I can confirm FANCY’s post. Simply redo the Towering Intellect achievement after getting 19/20 achievements to get the Master Cartographer one.

Can confirm Fancy post! That should be the solution here.
After you’re 19/20 on the achievements, just redo the Hanoi puzzle at 8/1.

I got all 6 puzzle pieces in my playthrough only missed one book, got the book from chapter 8 using chapter select. Went through the end again nothing, did the tower puzzle again from chapter select and this triggered the final 100% achievement. I kept the save where the book achievement unlocked.

I'm still having issues, I'm 19/20 on trophies, revisited the airship, went back and got my final puzzle piece and all books via chapter select. No pop. I even went back to my end game save file and finished the game twice again to see if that would work after getting all other achievements. Anyone have an idea on what to do? Really don't want to replay for this.

EDIT: tried a redo on the Hanoi puzzles, popped right after!
