As you explore the closing missions of Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, you’ll come across one of the game’s rare puzzles. It requires you to crack a padlock to access a blocked area behind The Blue Spruce, the bar you’re about to perform at. In this super short guide, I’ll teach you how to unlock the padlock in Bloom & Rage as quickly as possible.
Padlock Solution in Bloom & Rage
If you don’t want to go through the various options, you can take the padlock solution and go straight through the gate. You’re able to ‘try’ the padlock as soon as you find it.
To open the padlock in Bloom & Rage, just move the dial through this sequence: up, right, left, right, down.
Once you’ve done that, the padlock will pop open and you’ll be able to go and find the extension cord and power up your performance.
If you’d rather go through the options laid out before you, then you can jump straight to the payphone that’s nearby the gate. Here, you’ll be prompted to ask Kat to call Dylan to get the solution for the padlock.
As the conversation options pop up, you’ll want to tell Dylan that there’s a stray cat behind the gate, which is the most surefire way to get the code from her. From there, return to the padlock and Kat will read out the solution that I’ve given you above.
That’s how to unlock the padlock in Bloom & Rage – easy.
Bloom & Rage is light on the puzzle mechanics, and the thing you’ll be busying yourself with most is finding all the memoirs to record through your trusty camcorder. This is admittedly one of the easiest puzzles you’ll need to solve, but it’s always nice to have that solution ready to go.
