Why It’s Important
Find Collectibles
Collectibles like memoirs and other items are one of the key mechanics in Lost Records, and you may have to backtrack to find all of them.
Replay Story Moments
If you’re not happy with a choice you made in either your current or a previous chapter, you can go back and change it to alter your progression.
There are two different modes offeredwhen it comes to replaying scenes:Collectible Mode and Story Mode.
You’ll want to toggle between these depending on how you plan to play.
How To Replay Scenes
Once you’ve decided to replay a scene, the process for doing so is simple. Atany time during your game, just hit the pause buttonand head to the menu.
From there, you’ll want tohit ‘Replay A Scene.‘Once you’ve done that,a larger menu,styled like a DVD scenes menu, will appear with every sceneyou’ve previously played.
Every scene has a little title card that will help clue you into the action of that scene so that you don’t get lost trying to remember where and when a certain choice occurred.
Simply select the scene you want, and the scene will automatically cue up.
What Is Collectible Mode?
As mentioned, one of the key reasons to go back and replay a scene is tohunt down collectibles you may have missed on the first go around.
you may do this if youselect Collectible Mode after choosing the scene you want to replay.
When you replay a scene, attempt to find missing memoirs, supplement current memoirs with new footage,or examine details in spaces you might’ve missed previously.
The best part about Collectible Mode is thatanything you find during this replay gets added to your camcorder inventoryand won’t impact your story progression.
Once you’re donetreasure-hunting, you cansimply go back to the scene you were currently inand pick up from exactly where you left off.
What Is Story Mode?
If you aren’t happy with a story decision you made or a choice in a dialogue tree,you may also go back and replay the level, changing your decision.
This is super helpful for slips of the finger or just making a choice too hastily and regretting it later on.
However, there is one downside to this.When you restart a selected scene in Story Mode, you will erase your current story progressionand all choices made so far.
In essence, you’ll be starting from scratchdepending on how far back you go. So, use this option sparingly.
Ideally,Story Mode is good for replaying a decision you just madein your current scene,or at most, one to two scenes back.
