How to Solve All Password and Padlock Combinations in Lost Records: Bloom and Rage
As of now, Lost Records: Bloom and Rage features three lock-related puzzles within Tape 1. Keep an eye out for updates, as new puzzles might be introduced in Tape 2, scheduled for release in April 2025.
If you miss solving a puzzle early on, don't worry! You can revisit scenes using the game’s Scene Selection menu. Additionally, utilize the Collectible Mode to snag missed items without altering your story progression.
Corey and Dylan Lovelock in Scene 10 (Lights, Camera, Action!)
In Scene 10 of Tape 1, titled 'Lights, Camera, Action!', you'll encounter the first padlock puzzle. After exploring the park and navigating between two large boulders, you'll come across a fence lined with love locks. One of these belongs to Corey and Dylan. To unlock it, you'll need to find the four-digit code.
The clue to this code isn't available until Scene 24, near the end of Tape 1. While solving the Blue Spruce Bar Gate puzzle, check Corey’s Bag on his bike in the parking lot. Inside, you'll find a Polaroid photo with a caption that reads Corey and Dylan’s anniversary date: August 27, 1994. This date, 0827, is the code to unlock the love lock. Return to Scene 10 using the Scene Selection Menu and enter this code to unlock the lock and earn the 'Heartbreak' achievement/trophy.
Cabin Padlock in Scene 13 (Cabin in the Woods)
In Scene 13 of Tape 1, 'Cabin in the Woods', you'll face the second padlock puzzle. Inside the mysterious cabin, you need to solve the lock on the front door to proceed. Start by examining the Old Sheet hanging on a wooden beam near the door. This sheet provides visual hints for the lock's four dials, with the first one already solved.
For the second symbol, head to the kitchen area and pull the rope handle to open the trapdoor to the attic. Enter the attic and look at the far wall to spot a crescent moon symbol.
For the third symbol, still in the kitchen, check the can furthest to the left on the stove. Turn it over to find a leaf symbol on the bottom.
Finally, for the fourth symbol, examine the bear trap on the back wall. When it snaps shut, it reveals a star symbol etched on the wood behind it.
With all symbols gathered, return to the front door and input the correct sequence on the padlock to unlock it and continue the story.
Blue Spruce Bar Gate Padlock in Scene 24 (Riot Grrrls)
In Scene 24 of Tape 1, 'Riot Grrrls', the final padlock puzzle awaits. As the girls set up for their concert at Blue Spruce Bar, they need to access the power source behind a locked gate. The padlock requires a sequence of cardinal directions.
Find the solution near Corey’s bike in the parking lot. Check the bag on his bike and inspect the Pager inside. Under the clip, you'll find a slip of paper with a sequence of arrows. This sequence is the code to unlock the gate.
Return to the gate and enter the sequence to unlock it, allowing access to the bar’s employee area. Here, you can find essential items like the Extension Cord, Power Outlet, and solve the Breaker Panel puzzle to restore power.
