I absolutely 100% blew them all and didnt get the achievement. Did some googling and apparently it's known to be buggy as all fuck so may not pop on first completion

Bugs galore. Very frustrating game due to bizarre bugs. Can't get the 42 items burnt, and I'm on my 3rd run. Fire in the Hole... Pffft, probably it'll never unlock. Sound goes missing, mileage resets to zero. A mess of a game.

Thumbs up for locations, they were spot on - much appreciated. Just wish it wasn't so buggy. Have done it twice now and no achieve.

You blow them up just by adding them as fuel or some other way?

Ya by just adding them as fuel and then they will blow up and catch the starter on fire.

Shouldn't this be marked missable? If not, then why is the mailbox one marked missable?

I just got this achievement. It didn't pop on my first run through even though I am 100% sure I blew up every barrel. But after I blew up the final barrel on my 2nd run through, the achievement popped :)

I think because you can get the barrels from checkpoints. The mailbox you have to get and keep from the start of the game. Blew up all 6 and this didn't pop, but I've also played over three sessions so far. I'll try getting them all from checkpoints in a single session.

OK nevermind then, I tried it with using checkpoints, does not unlock that way, so this is totally missable. I'm guessing you have to do it in one new game playthrough in one session. I'll try that out real fast I guess.

Alright, going back through on new game, it popped after blowing up the 4th barrel.

The explosive barrels are not to be confused with the actual barrels of fuel. The explosive ones are all red and look like large gas canisters with a white “fire” icon on the side. When you put these in the fuel intake, they will cause an explosion and subsequently, a fire or two on your modules. For this trophy, you need to cause each one to explode by either setting it on fire, or putting it in the fuel intake. Don’t burn them immediately and just hold them in your Okomotive. You will have plenty of time to destroy them all once you’re in the Landcruiser towards the end.

There are 6 barrels total that you need to destroy:

Barrel 1: After installed the Item Gatherer, along the wooden pathway (will be by itself)

Barrel 2: Right after the door to the windmill that you open with the hamster-wheel, you’ll cross a wooden platform with a tornado blowing the background. Immediately after this, the barrel will be in the middle of the road (by itself).

Barrel 3: After you break your front tire, you’ll get stuck in some mud and need to attack your front tow cable to a metal object just ahead of your ship. Along with this object are 3 items you can pick up: A light, a fuel box, and the explosive barrel.

Barrel 4: After installing your new wheels, you’ll traverse through a dark and damp forest. Eventually, you’ll come across a pile of items in the middle of the road: A round object, a light, and the explosive barrel.

Barrel 5: As you travel along, you’ll go through a large desert-like area with snow (the snow will just be on the ground at first and will eventually start to fall from above as you progress through it). Make sure you keep your Item Gatherer turned on throughout this part as the explosive barrel is in the middle of the road and will come up quickly. You’ll crash through a railroad crossing gate. Just before the gate is a fuel box and the explosive barrel.

Burn all the barrels you have up to this point while still inside of the large Landcruiser. You have plenty of time to get them all and put out any and all fires that happen from the explosions.

Barrel 6: The last barrel is immediately after you exit the Landcruiser. Make sure your Item Gatherer is on as you exit so you don’t miss it (it’ll be with a fuel box and a fuel barrel). As soon as you pick it up, immediately toss it into the fuel tank, causing the fire and the trophy to unlock. Let your ship get destroyed. It’ll restart you at the exit of the Landcruiser and you can just bypass the barrel this time. The reason you want to go ahead and let your ship get destroyed is because you need to be going full speed in this section to make it through and having to deal with the barrel and the fire will prevent you from doing this easily.

There are a total of 6 “explosive barrels” in the game; they look like gas cylinders with a fire symbol on them. You need to find and burn all 6 cylinders in the firebox in one game session without loading checkpoints. If you load a checkpoint where a cylinder has already been collected, it will not be counted. The only exception is the start of a new game, in which case the cylinders collected and burned before are taken into account.

Video guide. It’s difficult to miss the barrels, but you need to collect and explode them during one game session without dying and rebooting, otherwise the trophy stubbornly won’t fall, that is, we just calmly go through the game, collect the barrels in the ship, then at the end, when we pick up the sixth one, we just throw them sequentially into the firebox without being distracted by anything else.

The trophy can be spoiled not only by missing the barrels, but also if lightning hits the firebox when a barrel is standing there and catches fire.

I think that the trophy is cumulative, because I received it in the middle of the 2nd playthrough. Apparently on a missed cylinder. Definitely not the last one.
