Charms are essentially keyrings, based on the appearance of notable enemies in the game. These keyrings come with boosts that can be applied to your Attaché Case once gathered.

You won't encounter Charms on the normal map, instead, you'll need to first unlock the shooting range from the Merchant.

You'll first encounter the shooting range at the Merchant's stall in chapter three of the game. Before entering the lake map, after you have passed the Quarry, you'll come to another Merchant stall (pictured above). This time, there will be a fancy-looking elevator nearby that you can ride to a shooting range.

Shooting ranges are indicated on the map by two crossed guns, there are a few of these in the games in various chapters.

Here, you can compete in shooting challenges to earn tokens.

Once you have completed a few challenges and earnt tokens, you can place three at once in the machine to the right of the elevator doors. This machine will then generate a randomised Charm for you to keep. The Charm quality will depend on the amount of silver vs gold tokens you spend. You can use a combination of both silver and gold tokens to get a charm, as long as you have at least three.

The Merchant will show up again later in the game with more shooting range spaces so don't worry if you have to leave the area but still want to try for more Charms.
