TheDirector of Destiny (運命ディレクター?, lit.: "Destiny Director") is atreasure inPikmin 2 andPikmin 4. It is actually acompass, and is found on the third sublevel of theGlutton's Kitchen inPikmin 2 and on the first sublevel of theLast-Frost Cavern inPikmin 4. InPikmin 2, the glass covering it is shattered, and the needle is stuck in a single position. InPikmin 4, it is instead a still-intact compass, with black coloring and proper labels. InPikmin 2, the compass does not actually point to the North as shown by the radar; the model can be pivoted by enemies such asAnode Beetles, and this will change the indicated direction.
