A Link to the Past is the first game in the Zelda series to implement Pieces of Heart. Much like the original The Legend of Zelda, Link starts his quest with 3 full Heart Containers and receives one after completing each dungeon. In addition to Heart Containers, the overworld is filled with 24 Pieces of Heart. Each time Link collects 4 Pieces of Heart, a full Heart Container will be added to his overall health. Completing each major dungeon and collecting all 24 Pieces of Heart will give Link the maximum of 20 full Heart Containers. For a complete context as to where you can find all of these Heart Pieces, check out the A Link to the Past Walkthrough.

Conditions: None
Heart Piece #1: Enter the Lost Woods through the entrance north of the Fortune Teller's Hut and proceed northwards until you see the Den of Thieves, a cave in a tree stump.

Location: Kakariko Village
Conditions: Acquire Bombs
Heart Piece #2: Go northwest of the Street Merchant, and you should see a well next to a cave. Head up on top of the ledge above them and jump off into the well.

To do this, head up and take your first left, then when you get to a fork, take another left. When you reach the sign, go down and you will use a secret jump. After the jump, talk to the male operator to earn the fourth Piece of Heart if you completed the race in 15 seconds or less.

Location: Pyramid of Power
Conditions: Reach the Dark World
Heart Piece #13: When atop the Pyramid of Power in the Dark World, climb down the first set of stairs and then down the stairs on the right. Continue a little to the right and drop off the small ledge down to the next level. Go right and up to find the Piece of Heart.
Location: South of the Haunted Grove
Conditions: Acquire the Magic Mirror
Heart Piece #14: In the Dark World, there is a small circle of flowers to the south of the Haunted Grove. Stand near or in the center of these flowers and use the Magic Mirror to warp to the Light World. Enter the cave on the plateau and grab the fourteen Piece of Heart.

Conditions: Acquire the Pegasus Boots, Magic Mirror, Bombs
Heart Piece #16: In the Ghostly Garden in the Dark World, travel to the north side of the garden by either using the Pegasus Boots to break the piled rocks in the area or using the Titan's Mitt to lift the skulls in the northeastern corner of the Ghostly Garden.

Enter the cave and bomb the northern wall to find the Piece of Heart.
Location: Village of Outcasts
Conditions: Enough Rupees to play the Game of Chance (30)
Heart Piece #17: In the Village of Outcasts, enter the building with a symbol of a treasure chest on the roof on the west side of the village, being the Game of Chance. Pay the operator 30 Rupees to play the game, only allowing you to open two treasure chests. One of the treasure chests contains a Piece of Heart. You may need to play multiple times and it can be quite costly.
Location: Treasure Field
Conditions: Enough Rupees to play the Digging Game (80)
Heart Piece #18: In the same area where the 15-Second Game is located in the Light World, the Treasure Field is found to the south of the Village of Outcasts. Pay the operator 80 Rupees to play the Digging Game where you get to dig up as many treasures as you want in thirty seconds. Once he lends you his shovel for the mini-game, start digging right away. Similarly to the Game of Chance, this Piece of Heart is completely random, so you may need to play multiple times to dig up the Heart Piece.
Location: Base of Death Mountain (Dark World)
Conditions: Acquire the Hookshot, Magic Cape
Heart Piece #19: In the Dark World, travel south of the Item Shop east of the Skeleton Forest to the base of Death Mountain. Nearby, while you can see the Piece of Heart on the ledge, you cannot access it.
Enter the cave and follow the path, while defeating the Hardhat Beetles and avoiding the Bumper, and climb up the stairs to the second floor. You will see a hole that you cannot travel across without the Hookshot. Use the Hookshot to grapple onto one of the skulls and cross the hole. Now head south until you are stopped by a Bumper blocking the way forward. You should use the Magic Cape to turn invisible and walk through it. Keep going south until you come across the end of the cave. Exit the cave to get the nineteenth Piece of Heart.
Location: Stake Garden
Conditions: Acquire the Titan's Mitt, Magic Hammer
Heart Piece #20: To the east of the Village of Outcasts you can find the Stake Garden. While it is blocked by the dark stones, you can use the Titan's Mitt to lift them up. Afterwards, there are 22 purple stakes in the garden that need to be pounded with the Magic Hammer, the order in which is done so does not matter. Once they are all pounded, the stump below the stakes will disappear and reveal an entrance to a cave. Once you have gone into the cave, you will find a Piece of Heart.
Location: Swamp of Evil
Conditions: Acquire the Titan's Mitt, Flute
Heart Piece #21: Use the Flute to warp to Location 6, the Desert of Mystery, and then lift the heavy rock with the Titan's Mitt on your right to reveal a Magical Warp Tile. Warp to the Swamp of Evil through the tile and jump of the ledge, making your way north until you see a similar structure to the entrance to Misery Mire. This building is west of the dungeon.
Once inside, avoid the Sparks and go down the stairs, making your way to the block puzzle at the end of the room. In order to get the Piece of Heart, you need to push the block in the bottom left corner to the left and then push the one to the right of the first block to the right. Push the one on the lower left hand side upwards and push the block blocking the chest to the left. There are two treasure chests, open the one on the left to obtain the Piece of Heart.
Location: Desert of Mystery
Conditions: Acquire the Titan's Mitt, Flute, Magic Mirror
Heart Piece #22: Using the Flute, warp to Location 6, the Desert of Mystery, and lift the rock to your right to reveal the Magical Warp Tile.

Here, use the Magic Mirror to warp back to the Desert of Mystery and lift the boulder to reveal a cave entrance. Head down the stairs and complete the puzzle. If needed, refer to the image. Once you have completed the puzzle, you can obtain the twenty-second Piece of Heart.
Location: Death Mountain
Conditions: Acquire the Magic Mirror, Power Glove, Bombs
Heart Piece #23: From Turtle Rock in the Dark World, travel west and then south until you reach the first large rock. When you lift it, it reveals a cave entrance. Enter the cave and go north until you come to a gap between the rest of the path. Like in other places, there is an invisible bridge. While you do not need to use the Ether Medallion in order to cross the gap, it will make for an easier time getting across. Make your way across the bridge and bomb the wall.
Once through, you will come to a room with three cracked walls. To get the Piece of Heart, bomb the western wall and go to the next room. Finally, exit the cave by going through the door at the bottom. Use the Magic Mirror to warp to the Light World to find the Piece of Heart.
Location: Death Mountain
Conditions: Acquire the Cane of Somaria, Quake Medallion, Magic Mirror
Heart Piece #24: In Turtle Rock, there are two rooms where Link can choose which pipe to take. In the lava-filled room, take the left pipe and go through the door it takes him to. In this room, defeat the two Hokkubokku and continue through the door to the south. Travel west and you should see a door to the south that leads outside. Dodge the Laser Eyes and exit through it.
Once outside, you should be on a ledge. Go to the far right side of the ledge, but do not go back inside the dungeon.
