Call of Juarez is Techland's 2006 western shooter, told in alternating chapters by Billy Candle, a young drifter who sneaks, climbs and swings on a whip, and Reverend Ray McCall, the gunslinging preacher hunting him. Shift is a walk key rather than a sprint, Caps Lock makes your horse gallop, and Q and E lean around cover, which also helps you dodge bullets in duels. Every binding below is from the Default Key Commands table in the game's PC manual.
