Jeffrey Parkin (he/him) has been writing video game guides for Polygon for almost seven years. He has learned to love just about every genre of game that exists.

In this Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End guide, we’ll help you find the five treasures and one optional conversation in Chapter 11 “Hidden in Plain Sight.”

We’ve organized our guides by chapters. To find the chapter name, head to the main menu. When you choose to continue your Story game, you’ll see the chapter number and name. (Unlike the previous games, the chapter name is not part of your save file.) In the same menu, you can make sure you haven’t missed any collectibles in the Chapter Select option.

Chapter 11 brings Nate and Sully to Edward England’s tower in Madagascar.

There’s no map in Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, so for each of the collectibles below, we used photo mode to zoom out and give you some context surrounding the treasure locations. Use the images to make sure you’re in the right area and the added arrows to help you find your way.

[Treasure] Earthenware Mug location

At the start of the chapter, head down the stairs into the market. Head to the left, and take another left to follow the raised parking lot you just came from around. Take the next flight of stairs down, and follow the alley there to the left to find the Earthenware Mug.

[Treasure] “Antique” Compass location

Cross back over to the right side of the market, and head toward the back (in the direction of the tower). The second permanent stall (building?) in the middle of the square has a butcher shop inside. Just before you reach it, on the right, there’s a vendor you can interact with. Keep interacting and haggling until you get the “Antique” Compass.

Optional conversation 1 (of 1)

After you buy the “Antique” Compass, continue through the market toward the tower. As you leave the first square, look on your left for a man with a ring-tailed lemur on his shoulder. Interact with the lemur, and then walk toward Sully. After the lemur comes back, you can trigger this conversation will Sully.

[Treasure] Nephrite and Jade Bowl location

Once you’ve crossed the market(s), you’ll have to climb your way into the tower. Inside the main room, you’ll find Edward England’s symbol on the floor. Look for a room ahead of you and to the left. You’ll find the Nephrite and Jade Bowl near a statue on your right as you walk into that room.

[Treasure] Ivory Handle Dagger location

The next room of the tower will be a climbing puzzle where you have to ring four bells in order. Once you’ve rung all four, you’ll reset the clock, and climb up along the outside of the clock tower. All the way up near the very top (seriously, there’s a lot of climbing), past the main (final) bell, look for a beam above the bell’s support platform. Climb up and cross that beam to find the Ivory Handle Dagger on a small balcony.

[Treasure] Brass Globe Hand Warmer location

After you ring the bell, there will be a whole lot of falling as you return to the first floor of the tower. In the room below the floor, you’ll solve a couple more puzzles (the first by lining up markings on the edges of symbols and the other by just taking photos of some more symbols). You’ll get a phone call from Rafe in a long cutscene. After the cutscene, circle around the room counterclockwise to find the Brass Globe Hand Warmer in some rubble.
