Alan Wake 2: How To Find All Lunchboxes | Cauldron Lake

gameranx.com:

Collect all the Alex Casey Lunchboxes in Cauldron Lake with these Alan Wake 2 collectible locations. Your first major area to explore is Cauldron Lake, the location where the investigation into a series of strange murders has begun. While checking out the park, you’ll encounter strange lunchboxes in hidden locations. Each lunchbox contains Manuscript Fragments — a hard-to-find resource used to upgrade weapons. Finding these lunchboxes will make your survival-horror adventure easier, so we’re going to show you where to find each one.

The Alex Casey Lunchboxes are references to the hardboiled detective character written by the in-game Alan Wake. Each lunchbox is left by the Cultists of the Tree and includes a strange note to whoever opens them. The boxes are usually hidden in hard-to-find locations, tucked away in corners of the map you won’t normally explore. And they’re worth tracking down. You’ll need the fragments they drop for weapon upgrades.
