Corral Countdown 6: Steam Achievements

Steam Achievements are special rewards for completing various game objectives, and Boot Hill Bounties has got 52 of them. Why 52? Because that’s how many cards are in a standard deck of playing cards (minus jokers).

Playing cards are the motif for achievements in Boot Hill Bounties with a each suit representing a type of achievement.

Simply finishing the main quest should earn a player half the achievements, while most players will probably get a few more. But only the most tenacious players will get all 52 achievements. Good luck!

Later this week, we’ll talk about another kind of achievement checklist. And this one is much harder, but with a much bigger reward…

Corral Countdown 7: Mystery Eggs

One of my favorite things about video games are the mysteries left unsolved sometimes. Before Game Theory was making a dozen videos theorizing about the hidden lore of Five Nights of Freddy’s I was theorizing about the hidden meanings in Silent Hill 2.



So I wanted to make sure there were a lot of interesting mysteries teased in Boot Hill Bounties as well. Sometimes you can say more with a mystery than by explicitly explaining something.

And while the main story is pretty straight forward, there are tons of hidden mysteries that the most observant player may pick up on.



I also love Easter Eggs in games. One thing I am most proud of in Boot Hill Bounties is how every detail in the game is packed with world-building lore that adds that much more personality to Bronco County. Easter Eggs are more subtle and often hidden details that most players will miss.



Sometimes the Easter Eggs and Mysteries blend together, and so I call them “Mystery Eggs.” Unfortunately, I can’t talk about any Mystery Eggs here, lest they unbecome mysterious and easter egg-y.



But I do want players to know that if you like stumbling across such things in games, then you will be delighted with what you find in Boot Hill Bounties. I hope some of the Mystery Eggs in the game will spark at least a few spicy speculations on online forums.
