[1] Overview
==============================================================================
Techland's Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a first-person shooter,
like the previous installment. It is a prequel whose events are set
nineteen to seventeen years before those of the original game, and
it features various gameplay changes, like having two playable heroes
for the same scenes.
==============================================================================
[2] Secret Item Locations
==============================================================================
The Secret Items provide access to historical images ("Art") and extra
dialogue among the McCalls ("Memories"), some of which doesn't appear
within the chapters themselves. Every new Secret Item that is obtained
will reveal the next image or bit of dialogue.
The Secret Items take the form of rolled-up parchments (although they
are called "cards" in the game). Except for the scenes where a specific
character must be played, the Secret Items are hidden at locations that
can be reached by either Ray or Thomas, and they will be accordingly
tracked in the "Secrets Found" scores for the characters. Those that
have been obtained are permanently saved and won't appear again.

Chapter 15: Crypt of Death
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Secrets: (0 total)
There are no Secret Items here.
Bonus Trick:
For Thomas, there is an alternate (semi-glitch) method for defeating Barnsby
that requires a volcano gun of (probably) at least prime condition. After
wearing down Barnsby enough, if Thomas uses a super draw and fires all
twelve shots straight into the boss, there is a chance that Barnsby will
instantly die. If this happens, the game will skip the final duel and go
straight to the Epilogue, initially garbling the music.
