How to Unlock the Gate at The Blue Spruce Bar in Lost Records Bloom & Rage

Near the end of the first half of Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, in Tape 1, Swann and her friends are gearing up for their debut concert in the parking lot of the Blue Spruce bar. True to their rebellious nature, Bloom and Rage are putting on this show completely illegally, so you'll first have to figure out how to unlock the gate at the Blue Spruce Bar.

Blue Spruce Bar Gate Puzzle Solution - Lost Records Bloom & Rage

To hold your debut concert in Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, you'll have to unlock the iron fence gate near the Blue Spruce bar. There are several ways which you can go about this, and if you aren't happy with your choice, you can always replay the scenes and change what you do.

For starters, you can go to the payphone and call Dylan. If you rely on her you can get the code, but you can also get it inside in other ways if you want to play it safe.

Another way to get inside is to break the lock. In order to do so, you have to check around the nearby dumpsters. You'll get an option to move a piece of cardboard behind which you'll find a Fire Extinguisher.

If you don't want to break the lock, there is also an option to find the code. This requires several steps:

• Find the bike – Look for Corey's bike parked to the right of the locked gate, in front of the bar. This is the only bike you can interact with.
• Examine Corey's bag – You'll see the bag on the back of the bike. Interact with it.

• Check the pager – Inside the bag, you'll find the Pager which you should examine.
• Find the lock code – Flip the pager and you’ll see a code made up of directional arrows. This is the combination for the padlock! The code is UP, RIGHT, LEFT, UP, DOWN. Head over to the page and open it.

How to Restore Power (Tape 1, Scene 24 – "Riot Girrrls")

Now that you've unlocked the path to the bar’s backyard, proceed forward to the door leading to the storage closet - it’s located at the corner of the building. Once inside, head to the last room and try flipping the power switch near the door. You'll quickly realize the power is out. To restore it, follow these steps:

• Check the outlet – Right in front of you after entering the room, you’ll find an outlet. Interact with it to see that you need an extension cord.
• Find the extension cord – Exit back to the backyard and go around the corner near the boat on the trailer. You'll find the extension cord inside one of the crates. Make sure your camcorder’s flashlight is on - Swann won’t notice it in the dark otherwise.

• Plug in the cord – Return to the storage closet and plug the cord into the outlet.
• Check the fusebox – After a short interaction with Kat, Autmn will shout that it's still not working. Now, inspect the Breaker Panel next to the outlet. Open it and notice that two fuses are missing.
• Find the missing fuses – Use your camcorder’s flashlight to locate them in the same room. One fuse is on the floor to the left - pick it up. The other is on the shelf to the right, next to a red gas canister.

• Insert the fuses – Go back to the breaker panel and insert both fuses. You can't get their positions wrong.
• Restore power – To turn the power back on, flip the switches in this order:
  1. Top left
  2. Top right
  3. Right switch in the second row
  4. Bottom left
  5. Left switch in the second row
  6. Right switch in the second row

Once the power is restored, you can continue with the story. You’ll receive a set of Bloom and Rage stickers to place in a few random spots - and after that, the concert can begin, leading to the dramatic conclusion of Tape 1.
