로스트 레코드 블룸 앤 레이지(Lost Records: Bloom and Rage) 리뷰 - 기억 속에 남을 걸작

"네가 죽더라도, 나는 너를 기억할 거야." 이 문장은 Lost Records: Bloom and Rage 의 첫 번째 챕터(Tape One) 중반부에 등장하는 대사로, 게임이 전달하고자 하는 핵심 메시지를 함축적으로 담고 있다. Don't Nod의 최신작인 Lost Records 는 청소년기의 복잡한 감정과 모순을 섬세하게 포착하며, 그 시절의 불완전한 자신감과 불안이 공존하는 순간들을 아름답게 그려낸다. 청소년기는 영원할 것처럼 느껴지면서도 한없이 깨지기 쉬운 시기다. 그리고 이 게임은 그 마법 같은 시간을 완벽하게 구현해낸다. 하지만 Lost Records 는 단순히 90년대의 향수를 불러일으키는 게임에 그치지 않는다.  이 작품의 중심에는 30년 가까이 묻혀 있던 초자연적인 미스터리가 자리 잡고 있으며, 네 명의 여성들이 다시 만나면서 과거의 어둠과 마주하는 이야기가 펼쳐진다. 우정, 정체성, 개성, 표현, 그리고 젊음에서 중년으로의 전환까지, 다양한 주제를 탐구하는 이 게임은 Don't Nod의 역대 최고의 작품 중 하나로 손꼽힐 만하다. 스토리 개요: 두 개의 시대를 넘나드는 미스터리 게임의 배경은 1995년 여름과 코로나19 팬데믹 이후의 현재, 두 개의 시대로 나뉘어 있다. 주인공 스완 할러웨이(Swann Holloway)는 어린 시절 겪었던 사건을 다시 되짚어 보기 위해 과거로 돌아간다. 이 모든 것은 오랜 친구인 가을(Autumn)로부터 연락을 받으면서 시작된다. 가을은 오랜 시간 연락이 끊긴 친구들에게 어떤 사람이 그들에 대한 진실을 알고 있으며, 의문의 소포를 보냈다고 전한다. 거의 30년간 단절된 네 명의 친구—스완, 가을, 노라(Nora), 캣(Kat)—은 결국 과거를 마주하기 위해 고향 벨벳 코브(Velvet Cove)로 돌아가게 된다. 이들은 왜 서로의 곁을 떠났으며, 과거에 어떤 끔찍한 일을 목격했거나 저질렀던 것일까? 이야기는 천천히 그러나 강렬하게 전개되며, 그 과정에서 플레이어는 초...
