Find every collectible in The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners. Locate Journals and Figurines scattered throughout the flooded streets of New Orleans.

Welcome, fellow Tourist! Beyond mere survival, the flooded streets of New Orleans hold many secrets and mementos of a world lost. This comprehensive checklist will guide you through finding every last collectible, from the cryptic Journals detailing the city's descent into chaos, to the whimsical Figurines that offer a glimpse into the past. Collecting these items not only enriches the lore but can also unlock hidden achievements and provide valuable insights into the game's narrative.

Remember, many collectibles are tied to specific story progression or require certain tools to access. It's often best to revisit areas after acquiring new gear or completing key missions. Always keep an eye out for glowing interactable objects, and don't be afraid to explore every nook and cranny!

Journals

The Journals are scattered notes and diaries left by various inhabitants of New Orleans, offering critical backstory and perspectives on the outbreak. There are a total of 20 Journals to find across the various districts.

  • Journal Entry 1: "The First Signs"
    • Location: Old Town - Inside the dilapidated bookstore on the main street, on a shelf behind the counter.
    • Strategy: This is an early game find. Be wary of a few lingering walkers inside.
  • Journal Entry 2: "Quarantine Orders"
    • Location: The Ward - In the abandoned police station, on a desk in the main office area.
    • Strategy: Accessing the police station requires a keycard found in a nearby patrol car. Look for the car parked near the station's entrance.
  • Journal Entry 3: "The Tower's Rise"
    • Location: Via Corolla - Inside the Tower's initial outpost, on a crate next to a radio.
    • Strategy: This is hard to miss as part of a main story objective.
  • Journal Entry 4: "The Reserve's Secrets"
    • Location: The Reserve (Post-Game) - Within the hidden bunker, on a console in the main control room.
    • Strategy: Only accessible after completing the main storyline.
  • Journal Entry 5: "The Bells"
    • Location: Memorial Lane - Inside the church bell tower, on a ledge accessible by climbing.
    • Strategy: Requires careful climbing and navigating ledges. Watch out for a few lurking walkers on the upper levels.

Figurines

These small, often quirky, figurines are hidden throughout the game world. There are 15 Figurines in total, each representing a piece of pre-apocalypse New Orleans culture or a character from the game's lore. Collecting them all unlocks a special display in your bus.

  • Figurine 1: "Jazz Musician"
    • Location: Via Corolla - On a small table in the bar area of the "Blue Note" club.
    • Strategy: The club is heavily infested. Clear out the walkers before searching thoroughly.
  • Figurine 2: "Voodoo Doll"
    • Location: The Shallows - Inside a partially submerged shack, on a shelf.
    • Strategy: You'll need to wade through water, so be prepared for potential aquatic walkers.
  • Figurine 3: "Tourist with Camera"
    • Location: Old Town - On a bench near the fountain in the central plaza.
    • Strategy: This area is often patrolled by both walkers and human enemies. Approach with caution.
  • Figurine 4: "Gator"
    • Location: Bastion - Hidden in the swampy outskirts, near a fallen tree log.
    • Strategy: This one is tricky to spot. Look closely at the base of large trees near the water's edge.
  • Figurine 5: "Saints & Sinners Logo"
    • Location: The Graveyard - On a tombstone near the main entrance.
    • Strategy: This area can be dense with walkers, especially at night. Consider a stealthy approach.
