#gaming lovely palate cleanser between Bond and the upcoming Resynced jaunt 🏴☠️ Lost Records: Bloom & Rage was a 👌🏻 narrative story that I enjoyed a lot - a few small notes but still tears in my eyes by the end. Games like this still being made reinforces my hope that it's not all basic AI slop yet 🤞🏻
We finished it, and now I'm sad 🥲 Lost Records was so good and it really twisted the knife in my heart. 10/10, would be destroyed again We needed a pick-me-up after that, so we raided out to @vee-kitzora.bsky.social for some Pokemon Champions! Thanks to everyone who joined 💜
Jackalope Hope@jackalope-hope.bsky.social · 2mo agoIt's time to finish Lost Records: Bloom & Rage! Tape 2 is really picking up the tension, so I'm super excited to see how everything comes together It's also the last day of Rainbow Rat Parade, and we are so, so close to our goal. Come hang out and support Trans Lifeline (link below)! 💜
So happy for this lady right here! Olivia Lepore aka Swann 🦋 from Lost Records: Bloom & Rage just won an ACTRA award for her performance! @actramtl.bsky.social huge congrats to her and our entire team for bringing this special game to life. Let's GOOOOO ✨
Love all the #LostRecords arts by instagram.com/rainschoool 😍 Lost Records: Bloom & Rage #Swannsong
Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is phenomenal. It's like a sad lesbian Stand By Me for the 90s. It's by Don't Nod, who did Life is Strange. If you loved that, you'll be RUINED by this. I'm just a puddle of emotions rn. Still n-b, but this game's gonna crack a few eggs 😉 Also: songs by Ruth Radelet!!

After taking waaay too long to finish Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, I am finally through. The game did what few games could: It made me scream at the game in anticipation and emotion. Not Dark Souls fight emotion, but story emotion. Well done. Beautiful. My choices sucked though, everyone left me.
Had a wonderful chat with Don't Nod MTL's @michelkoch.bsky.social and @lucbaghadoust.bsky.social about Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, a game I adored & think deserved more recognition! We talked about their 1-year anniversary, refreshing approach to nostalgia, Canadian Game Awards nominations & more.

What am I going to do for the rest of my life? An examination of how Lost Records: Bloom & Rage emulates the feeling of living through a rite of passage. Link below !!!
Finally playing Lost Records: Bloom and Rage (which I pre-ordered and then proceded not to play for a year) and I need Don't Nod to make little, gay, narrative-adventure games forever (Especially because I suspect Square-Enix/Deck Nine are done with Life is Strange)
Happy first anniversary to Tape 2: Rage from Don't Nod Montreal's Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. 💜 The industry is a better place when narrative stories like these exist — & a reminder of why we all love games. Can't wait to see what the future holds for Don't Nod Montreal. #LostRecords #DontNod
