Dominoes

Players Must Empty Their Hand First To Win

Virtual gambling may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially if it revolves around the game of Dominoes, which most people aren’t familiar with. Players must place matching Dominoes on the board and try to empty their hand before their opponent does.

Tilly asks Arthur to play this game with her from time to time in Red Dead Redemption 2. It may not be the most interesting camp activity around, but it’s still a great way to bond with this character and maybe even learn a new game.

Fishing

A Simple, Relaxing Way To Pass Time

• Done With: Javier Escuella, Kieran Duffy

Players who don’t mind enjoying a calm and relaxing bout of fishing will love how many times they can engage with this activity in Red Dead Redemption 2. The mission involving Hosea and Dutch is notable for obvious reasons, but there are other moments when Arthur is asked to fish too.

Javier Escuella and Kieran Duffy will ask Arthur to fish with them at different points in the story. The fun conversations and relaxing fishing gameplay make this camp activity worthwhile for patient players.

Five Finger Fillet

Execute Button Inputs To Avoid Taking Off A Finger

• Done With: Lenny Summers, Micah Bell

An iconic minigame that was popularized in the first installment, Five Finger Fillet involves players pressing buttons in quick succession to stab a knife between their fingers without getting cut. As simple as it sounds, this minigame is more captivating than it has any right to be.

This is why players will love playing this game with camp members no matter who asks, even if it’s the heinous Micah Bell. If anything, beating the crook in this game is pretty satisfying and lets players enjoy a moral victory over this traitor no matter how things pan out in the story.

Hunting

Bring Down Some Game With A Friend

• Done With: Charles Smith, Simon Pearson

Hunting has been fleshed out tremendously in Red Dead Redemption 2, with players being encouraged to use bows and appropriate guns to acquire perfect pelts from their kills. The wind also plays a role in hunting, with players having to approach their prey from a different angle to avoid spooking them.

Hunting game with other camp members is a great way to enjoy some well-written conversations while players hunt their prey. Charles Smith and Simon Pearson can rope Arthur into an afternoon spent hunting game and acquiring rare materials.

Coach Robbery

Arthur And A Companion Chase Down A Coach

• Done With: Bill Williamson, Sean MacGuire, Lenny Summers, Micah Bell

Given Arthur’s status as an outlaw, it’s easy to see why players would like to participate in robberies from time to time. The most popular robbery mission involves chasing down and opening a stagecoach so that players get their hands on several valuables.

Riding a horse and forcing stagecoach drivers to slow down is a fun experience every single time. Given the sheer number of people who offer this mission, it’s easy to see why most Red Dead Redemption 2 players would engage in this activity at least once during their travels.

Rob A Homestead

Head To The Chez Porter Ranch To Conduct A Robbery

• Done With: Javier Escuella

In one of the more elaborate companion activities in Red Dead Redemption 2, Arthur teams up with Javier to rob the inhabitants of the Chez Porter Ranch. Players must rely on a distraction to force the family to come out before robbing them for all they’re worth.

While players must engage in a gunfight to make progress in this quest, it’s brief and fairly easy to get through. After this, Javier and Arthur will uncover a stash that provides them with valuable loot.

Social Calls With Mr. MacGuire

Target A Group Of Drunken Train Robbers At Lonnie’s Shack

Unlike other robbery missions, Sean asks Arthur to rob some drunk fools who raided a train and are hiding out at Lonnie’s Shack. Players who want Arthur’s honor to be as high as possible will have no problems conducting this robbery.

Players approach the robbers and fool them before taking them out and interrogating one of the hapless fools about the location of the stash. After finding the cash, Sean and Arthur split the take before going their separate ways.

High And Low Finance

A Bank Robbery Reserved For The Ultimate Edition

The Special Edition of Red Dead Redemption 2 adds some interesting content to the game, including what is easily the best and most involving companion activity. In Chapter 4, Charles will inform Arthur about a way to break into the Bank of Rhodes and acquire a ton of cash in no time.

Players carry out a stealthy mission where they silently take out a guard and set up dynamite to blow open the safe. After looting the bank for all it’s worth, they must outrun law enforcement before eventually regrouping after a successful heist.
