A Word from Michel Koch, Creative Director
Michel Koch, Creative Director at DON’T NOD Montréal, had this to say about the launch:
“Moving to a new country, building a new team and studio, creating an entirely new universe, and breathing life into brand-new characters was no small feat—especially during strange times like the pandemic. Yet here we are, finally, ready to unveil our new game to the world, giving our characters the chance to meet you and, hopefully, bring you joy, nostalgia, and sorrow.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a game about finding your own space and voice within your circle of friends, about overcoming adversity, growing up, and embracing who you are. We hope this project will resonate with you, and that you'll enjoy meeting Swann, Nora, Autumn and Kat as you become part of Bloom & Rage and recreate your path through the summer of '95.”
Step Into an Alternate Reality
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage fans can expect to experience something immersive and unique in our ARG (Alternate Reality Game), which will unfold between now and the release of Tape 2. We, and our partners at Haus of Park, invite the community to come together to solve mysteries, puzzles, and hidden stories that tie deeply into the world of Bloom & Rage.
Fans can join through a Discord server where the story will begin with Erin's request for help to repair a PC. From there, players will discover the ARG's Mission Hub, where Erin will communicate with them throughout the coming weeks.
