I wanted to write a walkthrough guide, but because of the open world nature
of Westerado, this is more of a mission list, how to start them, and how to
get clues from them.
Completionist Missions:
=======================
If you want to finish the game with a full description of the murderer,
you'll need about a dozen clues to his appearance, plus one for his current
location. I find this particular sequence to be quite effective, and it
also reveals the life stories of the sheriff and banker:
A. Protect the Buffalo Express Carriage [3 clues]
-------------------------------------------------
1. Talk to the banker in Clintville for a job.
2. Talk to the sheriff next door about your murdered family, and then ask
for help with protecting the carriage. (You can actually do this task
without the sheriff's help, but then you'll only get 2 clues.)
3. Talk to the Buffalo Express driver in Santa Anna to start this mission.
(The sheriff is already there waiting.)
4. Successfully fight off the bandits, and then talk to the banker for the
1st of 3 clues.
5. Talk to the sheriff in his office for the 2nd of 3 clues.
6. Talk to the the Buffalo Express driver for the 3rd of 3 clues. (Funny how
the sheriff is also still there waiting. :-)
B. Protect Rancher Bob's Buffalo [3 clues]
------------------------------------------
1. Talk to the tycoon at his mansion for a job (you'll have to pull your
gun on him to win his respect).
2. Talk to the Beefhead Bulls gang about the plan; tell them twice that the
tycoon sent you, and that you'll meet them later when you're ready.
3. Talk to the sheriff, ask if anyone needs help (this unlocks Rancher
Bob's fast-travel location), and then say you have an urgent need for his
help in protecting the buffalo.
4. Talk with Rancher Bob to start this mission.
5. Successfully protect the buffalo, and then talk to Rancher Bob for the
1st of 3 clues.
6. Talk to the sheriff there next to Rancher Bob, ask if anyone needs help,
tell him you finished the last job, and he'll give you the 2nd of 3 clues.
7. Talk to the tycoon for the 3rd of 3 clues.
8. Go back to Clintville, and someone should offer you a map to the
murderer's hideout in exchange for $50. (At this point, you could just go
to the hideout and finish the game, but then you'd have to get past 3 waves
of his henchmen. Instead, for these Completionist Missions, we'll continue
to get all 12 clues for his appearance, plus one more for his final location,
so we can confront him outside of the hideout.)
C. Deal with the Beefhead Bulls [1 clue]
----------------------------------------
1. Talk to the sheriff at Rancher Bob's, ask if anyone needs help, and he'll
direct you to the Beefhead Bulls (who you just defeated, so they'll be
pissed).
2. Successfully win the shootout with the Beefhead Bulls, and then go back
to the sheriff, ask if anyone needs help, tell him you finished the last job,
and he'll give you the clue.
D. Deliver Something for the Banker [2 clues]
---------------------------------------------
1. Talk to the banker, and he'll ask you to deliver a map to the tycoon.
2. Talk to the tycoon on behalf of the banker, and he'll give you the 1st of
2 clues.
3. Talk to the banker for the 2nd of 2 clues.
E. Play Cards at the Saloons [2 clues]
--------------------------------------
1. Join a game at the saloon in Clintville, and even if you don't win, you
should get a clue.
2. Join a game at the saloon in the Train Station, and even if you don't
win, you should get a clue... maybe not immediately after playing in
Clintville, but after doing other quests in between (also note that
sometimes you'll get the same clues you've already received, so you'll
have to do more missions).
F. Find Employees for the Haberdashery [1 clue]
-----------------------------------------------
1. Talk to Madame Hat in Santa Anna about the haberdashery, and offer to
find extra hands.
2. Successfully talk 3 girls (from Santa Anna, Clintville, or the Train
Station) into working at the haberdashery, and then talk to Madame Hat for
the clue.
3. She'll also give you a free hat...but because of the bug noted by
others, make sure you don't have 3 hats when she gives you the extra one;
otherwise, you may end up with a maximum limit of 2 hats the next time
you get shot!
G. Get Rid of the Graveyard Bandits [1 clue]
--------------------------------------------
1. Talk with girls, until you find one who wants to visit her father's
grave, and offer to get rid of the bandits there.
2. Successfully rid the graveyard of those bandits, and then go back and
talk with that same girl for the clue.
Alternative Missions:
=====================
Unlike with the previous Completionist Missions, which can be done
sequentially from A to G, some of these Alternative Missions may conflict
or interfere with others (for example, killing the buffalo vs. protecting
them):
H. Free the Buffalo [1 clue]
----------------------------
1. Talk with the chief at the Indian Camp to start this mission.
2. Successfully free the buffalo in Clintville, Cobb's Ranch, Rancher
Bob's, and Rancher Richard's, and then talk with the chief for the clue.
I. Help the Indians Take Back Clintville [1 clue]
-------------------------------------------------
1. You must first complete mission H (Free the Buffalo).
2. Talk with the chief at the Indian Camp to start this mission.
3. Successfully shoot all the people in Clintville, and then talk with
the chief for the clue.
J. Build Rancher Protection Franchise [1 clue]
----------------------------------------------
1. You must first complete mission B (Protect Rancher Bob's Buffalo).
2. Talk with Rancher Bob to start this mission.
3. Successfully talk Rancher Cobb, Rancher Richard, and the Clintville
rancher (accordin' to hoyle, NOT on the shoot, of the first water) into
joining the franchise, and then talk with Rancher Bob for the clue.
K. Kill Rancher Bob's Buffalo [1 clue]
--------------------------------------
1. Talk to the tycoon at his mansion for a job (you'll have to pull your
gun on him to win his respect).
2. Talk to the Beefhead Bulls gang about the plan; tell them twice that
the tycoon sent you, and start the mission.
3. Successfully kill the herd of buffalo, and then talk to the Beefhead
Bulls, who tell you talk to the tycoon.
4. Talk to the tycoon for the clue.
L. Collect Bank Loans [1 clue]
------------------------------
1. If you fail mission A (Protect the Buffalo Express Carriage), the
banker will offer you another job of collecting debt owed by the ranchers.
2. Talk with Rancher Richard and get him to pay off his debt.
3. Talk with the rancher in Clintville and get him to pay off his debt.
4. Talk with the banker and give him $90 or take a cut (don't take it all),
and he'll give you the clue.
M. Rob the Bank [1 clue]
------------------------
1. You must first complete mission K (Kill Rancher Bob's Buffalo).
2. Talk to the Beefhead Bulls to start this mission.
3. Talk to the banker to hold up the bank.
4. Search for the unblocked exit, knock on the bank door (press E), and
lead the Beefhead Bulls to safety.
5. Talk to the Beefhead Bulls for the clue.
N. Reunite the Buffalo Bandits [1 clue]
---------------------------------------
1. Talk to Buffalo Bandit Juardo (fast-travel to the Mines and go N, W,
N, N, E, S, S) to start this mission. (Note: You must talk to Juardo
first; if you talk to Juan or Juaroen before Juardo, you cannot complete
this mission!)
2. Talk to Buffalo Bandit Juan (directly West of Abandoned Town).
3. Talk to Buffalo Bandit Juaroen (directly West of Santa Anna).
4. Go back and talk to Juardo, and he'll give you a free hat (don't know
if that same hat bug applies here).
5. Go back and talk to Juan for the clue.
6. Go back and talk to Juaroen, and he say's he'll give you $50...but
doesn't (I think it's a bug).
What is Juaroen saying? (translated via translate.google.com):
Dutch: HALLO VRIEND! De meeste noemen mij JUAROEN, BUFFALO BANDIT JUAROEN!
HELLO FRIEND! Most call me JUAROEN, BUFFALO BANDIT JUAROEN!
Dutch: Ja, ik snap het ook niet helemaal...nederlands past niet echt
in een WESTERN spel. Voor de meeste is dit gewoon DOUBLE DUTCH.
English: Yeah, I get it...not entirely Dutch does not really fit into a
WESTERN game. For most this is just DOUBLE DUTCH.
Dutch: Hey, ik denk dat ik een baantje voor je heb...ben je
GEINTERESEERD?
English: Hey, I think I have a job for you...are you INTERESTED?
Dutch: Hey, GEEN PROBLEEM, dan niet, komt wel goed zonder je!
English: Hey, NO PROBLEM, or not, will be fine without you!
Dutch: Mijn vrienden, JUAN & JUARDO zijn een tijd geleden ergens
verdwaald geraakt, en nooit meer terug gekomen...
English: My friends, JUAN & JUARDO have become lost somewhere a long
time ago, and never came back...
Dutch: Als je ze vindt, vertel ze dat ik klaar ben om weer mijn GUNS
eruit te halen en de PAARD weer op te gaan. SNAP je het allemaal? VEEL
DANK en TOT ZIENS!
English: If you find them, tell them that I'm ready to get back my GUNS
to extract and HORSE again to go. SNAP it all? MANY THANKS and GOODBYE!
Dutch: Zei hij dat? Ik wist niet dat hij me zoveel miste.
English: He said that? I did not know he missed me so much.
Dutch: Vertel hem waar ik ben, ik moet nog wat dingen zelf regelen, en
dan KOM IK ERAAN!
English: Tell him where I am, I got some things arrange themselves,
and then GET THERE!
Dutch: Ga maar, en vertel hem waar ik ben, ik kom er zo aan!
English: Go, and tell him where I am, I'll be there!
Dutch: Ja, JUARDO was altijd vrijgevig, hij zou het waarderen als ik je
een kleinigheidje gaf...
English: Yes, JUARDO was always generous, he would appreciate it if I
gave you a little something...
Dutch: Hier, $50! Dat zal toch wel genoeg zijn. TOT ZIENS!
English: Here, $50! That will surely be enough. BYE!
O. Visit Murderer's Hideout
---------------------------
As mentioned earlier in mission B (Protect Rancher Bob's Buffalo), once you
unlock the Murderer's Hideout location, you can go there to finish the game.
If, while playing the Completionist Missions, you stir up a dormant bandit
camp (for example, by taking their bags of money), and the murderer happens
to be hiding there, he might escape. If he does, you WILL have to have to
confront him in his hideout, and need to get past his henchmen by any of
these methods:
1. Shoot them.
2. Bribe them with money, which will cost $250 for the 1st wave, $500 for
the 2nd, and $1000 for the 3rd, so you'll need to carry $1750 with you when
you go there.
3. Bribe them with something else. The only thing I've seen them respond to,
other than bullets and money, is hats--they leave without a fight if you've
completed mission F (Find Employees for the Haberdashery).
Side Quests:
============
These Side Quests don't get you clues, but they provide other benefits
listed, and may add to your final score:
P. Pick Up Bags of Money
------------------------
Besides the main Mines location, there's another one directly East of Santa
Anna. Other bags of money can be found in the following locations:
1. Tycoon's Mansion [7 bags]
2. Abandoned Town [5 bags, guarded by dormant bandits (who spring into
action, NOT only when the bags are touched, but ALSO when provoked by your
gun! ;-)]
3. Directly West of Abandoned Town [3 bags]
4. Directly South of Abandoned Town [4 bags, guarded by active bandits]
5. Rancher Bob's [7 bags]
6. Directly West of Graveyard [10 bags, guarded by dormant bandits]
7. Movie set 2 screens North of Graveyard [3 bags]
8. Train Station [5 bags, guarded by active bandits]
9. Directly North of Train Station, or West of bought Home [3 bags, guarded
by active bandits]
10. Directly South of Train Station [6 bags, guarded by dormant bandits]
11. Santa Anna [2 bags]
12. Directly South of Indian Camp [3 bags, guarded by active bandits]
13. Directly West of Indian Camp [5 bags, guarded by dormant bandits]
Q. Confront the Bartender Twins
-------------------------------
1. Talk to the Train Station bartender, and ask if he runs both saloons.
2. Talk to the Clintville bartender, and ask if you saw him in another
saloon.
3. Talk to Madame Hat in the Santa Anna haberdashery, and ask if the
saloon owners go there often.
4. She tells you to bring them together in a room so she can show them
evidence that they're twins...but I don't think this quest goes any further
than this.
R. Marry Madame Hat
-------------------
1. If you want to complete mission Q (Confront Bartender Twins), you must
do that first, because you won't have a chance to go back and talk to
Madame Hat about the bartenders at the end of this one!
2. Talk to one of the bank tellers when you have at least $500 in your
pocket, and he'll offer you a house for that amount.
3. Buy the house, fast-travel to the Home location, and go West across the
bridge, where you can pick up a bag of money and talk to the real estate
agent.
4. Talk to Madame Hat and tell her you're there for her.
5. Go to your Home, and she'll be there waiting.
S. Visit a Movie Set
--------------------
1. From the Graveyard, go North twice.
2. Talk to the guy, and he'll give you $500.
T. Find the Bonafide Bandits Treasure
-------------------------------------
1. Two screens North of Santa Anna, there's a statue that says "132".
2. Go to the Mines and read the Bonafide statues (press E) in that same
order--i.e., leftmost, rightmost, and center--and the gate that's
directly North of the 3rd statue will open.
3. Enter and take that stash of money!
U. Console the Widow
--------------------
1. From the Train Station, go East and North (you may have to leave and
go back a few times before the widow shows up).
2. Talk to the widow, and tell her it's time to get over her loss.
3. She'll give you a free hat (don't know if that same hat bug applies here).
