Below are the cheats, hints, and tips that Game Gas knows about for Dead Man's Hand. On the right are
websites that may have additional cheat codes, hints, or tips for Dead Man's Hand.
Hidden runestone:
Start the level where you have to go to the log mill to kill the "Twins". Enter one of
the rooms in the three gin distilleries at the start of the level that has a "table"
constructed from a wood plank laying across barrels. Use dynamite to blows up
one of the walls in that room to find a hidden area. Inside is a glowing purple
Runestone.
Additional Ammo:
At the main menu, highlight [New Game] and press L + R.
Solve Xbox Live Menu Lag Issues
If you experience a lot of "lag" (slowdown, jerkiness etc) in the Menu area of Dead Man's Hand, we have discovered that it's due to large Friends list. If you play with an account that doesn't have a large Friends list, this will clear up the menu lag issues. If you don't wish to delete your Friends list or create another account try this at the menu screen: Hold down the d-pad in either up or down direction. The highlight will start moving. Once the slot is highlighted two (2) selections from your desired selection, simply release the d-pad. You will find it stopped where you wanted it to. Then hold down the "A" button" until it goes to the next screen.
Shooting mini-game:
In the level where the boss is playing an old phonograph, find the three hidden
watermelons. They are found in the following locations: just before going down to
the wall of adobe buildings on the left; hidden in a deep gully; and on top of the
mountains. Shoot all three of them to play a shooting gallery mini-game.
