Lost Records: BLOOM & RAGE -TAPE 2 is a game that is difficult to review because it has already been reviewed. In February, I wrote why I loved the first episode of the new game. Tape 2: It has not changed much after finishing anger.
I immediately liked the character cast of Swanz and Swan, a shy high school student at the Story Center. I loved her new friend, autumn, NORA and KAT. And after 27 years, I took it again by setting up a mystery box that collects girls in my hometown.

Lost Records: Bloom & RAGE is the evolution for adventure games.
Do not re -work on its own formula.
Long flower, short anger
In my slogan, most of the Bloom did well, and I am good at anger. The second chapter is picked up where the group of the Time Line is free from the revelation of one of the girls in 1995, while in 2022, the ego in 2022 grasps the source of the mysterious package dealt with them through memories. The best game made by Do Nod continues. This article is still human and concrete, and I think that this lower entrance is still a great and sometimes heartbreaking real person, especially as the story is especially true as the story reaches emotional conclusions. I feel that the way of using both third and first person perspectives and the camcorder mechanics blurs the boundaries between them is still unique and special.
Compared to Tape 1, I don't have much to love here. A long time before the lost record came out, I wondered how it would handle the second episode split. There are historically five parts or at least three episodes, and offers at least one episode for each behavior of the traditional story structure. With only two people, the lost record was likely to be all murderers and fillers. But there was a possibility of misunderstanding to move to an untested structure.
And that's the biggest problem of tape 2. 7 or 8 of the first episode is much shorter than 4 or 5 hours. Bloom's stops have a lot of theme, but Rage would have gained profits from more equal divisions. It will not be more important for players who have experienced lost records: Bloom & Rage is all important at once. However, this episode, which is evaluated by itself, has a short end of the story stick, and Tape 1 delivers the third behavior that can work with ACT 1 and ACT 2.
Tape 2 maintains high quality
The quality is still high and this time there are new things to be excited. It ends with a sequel lover who found something really interesting. It has a satisfactory conclusion, but I left me with the feeling that there were more stories in this world. And the most important thing was on the edge of tears for the last 30 minutes. The first episode actually became interested in these characters, and Tape 2 successfully paid the investment.
There is a problem that does not exist in the first tape. The lost record did not actually require a stealth section, but the part introduced here is merciful. And Bloom is actually KAT's sister's boyfriend, Corey. That Eventually, anger makes him worsen with a mustache. Here is a specific answer that doesn't satisfy the player looking for a big mystery box. If that's the most important thing you are looking for, you will be disappointed.
But I doubt that I was not here, gave the history of Do Nod, and most players who attempted a lost record are looking for JJ Abrams style yarn. They are here for the character like me. I have to give up both tape 2 and records that have been lost to provide a remarkable experience of capturing teenagers, even if you were not born in the 90's. Lost Records: The second and last episode of Bloom & RAGE is mostly satisfactory conclusions. I just want to have a space for it simply finish.

Don't nod your head
- Satisfied and emotional conclusions about Swan's story.
- Last time, everything is still excellent (graphics, characters, change).
- The strange character choice is too much out of the establishment of the tape 1.
- This short chapter needed more space to breathe.
