How to get the magnum in Crow Country

Follow the money.

What’s a survival horror game without a magnum that you’ll never fire a single time because there might be an even bigger, badder boss in the next room? Crow Country has its very own boss-killer, and you can get it about midway through the game.

There’s only one prerequisite item: the silver key. If you don’t have this yet, then there are actually several prerequisite items, but at the risk of spoiling the experience, you can revisit this guide once you’ve got your hands on it to get your shiny new gun as soon as possible.

First, head over to the Gift Shop, located just off the main square:

Inside, you’ll find several items for sale, each of which you can inspect to check the price. Near the cash register at the back of the shop is a note from Mr. Crow himself, which lists several items he’s planning on picking out for his daughter Natalie. By adding the price of these items and entering the result, $19.75, into the register, we’ll claim our prize:

  1. Haunted Hilltop stuffed toy – $5.50
  2. Classic Crow Country rubber doll – $10.00
  3. Fairytale Town action figure – $4.25

The items aren’t labeled exactly as they appear in the shop, and there are many to choose from, so some deductive reasoning goes a long way in finding the right ones. Once you have your hands on the magnum, all that’s left is to find some ammo for it. And that’s a puzzle even I’ve struggled with.
