DON’T NOD is busily crafting Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, a captivating adventure game that promises to take us on a time-traveling journey through its rich narrative. Slated for release this year, you won’t want to miss diving into its compelling story!
Imagine being whisked back to the 90s, reliving a transformative summer alongside four high school girls. This is a time of burgeoning friendships, the excitement of a punk band, and a mysterious event that alters their lives forever.
As part of the game’s unique storytelling, you’ll navigate between two timelines: 1995 and 2022. Each of these timeframes unveils a piece of the puzzle, revealing life-changing secrets from the past and the reasons behind their long-awaited reunion. Over these 27 years, some memories have faded, while others remain sharp, and the game challenges you to piece them together.
At the heart of the experience is the connection you forge with your newfound sisterhood. Engaging with the game feels incredibly authentic, as conversations shift based on your actions, offering you the chance to interrupt or even ignore. Grab your camcorder to explore Velvet Cove, capturing its essence through video—whether simply for enjoyment or to unearth hidden secrets lurking within.
Step into the shoes of Swann, and strike up friendships with Nora, Autumn, and Kat. These relationships offer a journey of self-discovery as you choose how to respond to the challenges each character faces. Will your bonds stand the test of time, or will they grow distant as the years pass?
Set in the idyllic Velvet Cove, nestled in the Michigan landscape, the town blends serene woodlands and tranquil lakes into a setting that is as beautiful as it is mysterious. Accompanied by an ethereal dreampop soundtrack, this immersive world is sure to draw you in with its nostalgia-soaked charm.
Mark your calendars: Lost Records: Bloom releases on February 18, with Lost Records: Rage following on March 18. Immerse yourself in this beautifully crafted narrative and uncover the secrets of Velvet Cove.
