The Difference Between Secrets And Pictures
This game has split up the collectables into two categories: Secrets and Pictures.
Secrets are items you'll pick up and examine as you walk around in exploration segments. You'll often have to turn them in your hands to find whatever the "secret" about the object is. Once you've found it, it'll be added to your Secrets menu for you to review anytime, with a brief explanation of its meaning. There are 50 Secrets in total.
Pictures are always clay tablets from ancient Akkad. They depict figures doing activities, like sacrificing a goat, as subtle references to potential outcomes of your decisions. One you pick up a Picture, you'll get what's called a "premonition" - a short clip of a possible future. You often will have little to no idea what could cause that future; it's meant to make you second-guess your decisions going forward. There are 10 Pictures in total.
