The Thaumaturge is an original, turn based RPG, that excelled in the narrative sections of the game and I loved it.

If you are someone who enjoys a good story with lots of side quests and exploration then I am sure you will love this too.

The combat sections were beautifully portrayed with some interesting and imaginative fighting scenes, but ultimately you'll want to play on a harder difficulty if you require a challenge.

Overall, after completing the game with most endings, I would highly recommend this for its atmospheric story and vivid locations. It's a strong game of the year candidate for me personally.

Exploration
There are a generous amount of locales to visit, all within easy travelling distance by tram or coach. I appreciated the quickness of going from one district to the next, whilst pursuing quests, and locating where you had to go was a breeze with Viktor's sixth sense of direction taking you straight to the heart of the quest. This only becomes a little confusing when you have more than one quest active, as I noticed sometimes that multiple points of interest were located on the map, and it can leave you visiting the wrong place because you visit the wrong quest. There is no more instruction than a red exclamation mark which pinpoints which district you need to visit, so perhaps this could be a little clearer.

When you reach destinations they are wonderfully rich with characters going about their daily lives in bustling environments. Sometimes, a text based comment, usually rude I might add is said, but there are a surprising amount of characters you can talk to with branching narratives. Viktor can explore places and use his senses to detect traces of emotion on everyday objects which can help him deduce what happened in certain situations. He can then use this information in conversations, often giving him an advantage by opening up branches that would otherwise be closed.

The mechanic is very interesting to begin with but it tends to get a bit stale towards the end of the game, and I realised it was just the conclusion I needed to read once all the objects had been found and examined. It is definitely worth using Viktor's sixth sense as much as possible whilst you are running around locales as often unexpected items can be detected which trigger side quests.

Besides the main quest, which has eight different endings depending on which factions you swear your allegiance to, there are a multitude of side quests which can be discovered. A lot of these will result in being awarded a stereograph photograph, which is sometimes a disappointing conclusion, but needs to be collected if you want that achievement. Some of these side quests have time limits or can only be performed at certain times of the day or night, but there is an easyy waiting mechanic and as long as you pay attention to your quests, I never ran out of time. There are also achievements for collecting clothes patterns, which you can change into throughout the game, and why not get a haircut at the barber shop too. There are gramophone records to find and listen to, and local landmarks which can be found and admired. There are lots of collectibles to find if that is something you enjoy.

Narrative

https://test-steamproxy.haloskins.io/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3233766128

I absolutely loved the narrative in the game. Everything is just so atmospheric. Rasputin is an intriguing character, who keeps you guessing his intentions throughout the game, and every character is professionally voiced with believable emotions and a wealth of different avenues to follow in the branching narratives. If a branch is closed, it will either display that previous decisions have caused this branch to close, or it will tell you that you need more information, so you will need to search the area for further clues.

Talking to characters effects the story line and options open to you, so I happily found myself talking to everyone to maximize the possibilities. There is a lot of lore in the game and characters are very well developed. I think if you love conversations and characters you will do the same as me and just explore as much as you can. You can get rewarded for more knowledge, and may open up possibilities to manipulate characters using your senses.

There is quite a deep examination of yourself and your relationship with your father and your sister in the game which I enjoyed, and there is an unusual connection with your salutor, a demon that is attracted and latches to flaws in a character. Viktor can have conversations with his salutor, although he doesn't say much in return, and use his powers in battle.

Combat
Fighting is interesting, with a few mechanics you will need to learn and master to win battles, like disabling enemy traits and replenishing your health at crucial moments. Enemies can inflict damage on you which if not monitored and countered can start to multiply damage, like bleeding from gun shots and knife attacks. This is where you can use your salutor to heal you or take away these effects.

https://test-steamproxy.haloskins.io/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3243753337

There is a bar at the top of the scene which allows you to see who is next to attack, which if you can understand, as it does take a while to comprehend, can be useful in knowing when to send in your salutor. You will pick up salutors throughout the game through main quests and side quests. I collected all eight of them, and you become almost invincible with them all in your corner. There is a skill tree, where you can assign traits relating to the salutors, and also apply Thaumaturge points to learn new skills or increase your senses, because certain situations throughout the game require you meet a certain level of senses, for example, reaching level five in word to read a certain clue.

The attack scenes are quite enjoyable to watch with characters running towards you slashing you or shooting you with guns whilst you stumble around in pain. The reactions to your magic attacks are good too and fighting salutors requires different tactics to win. To be honest, once you get used to removing enemy traits and watching your health carefully and reacting, I didn't have much difficulty winning the vast majority of battles on normal difficulty, so if you want to be challenged put the difficulty up.

🍳Conclusion🍳
I absolutely loved The Thaumaturge with its interesting and original story lines full of atmosphere, and deep character interaction. There is a mixture of everything being woven as you progress, from examinations of family history to politics and woman's rights. There are new plots being discovered constantly and I relished in following each one.

If you love narrative games then I would highly recommend this, if you are into turn based combat then I would advise playing on a harder difficulty to get the most enjoyment, but the difficulty adjuster means you can tailor your needs to your preferred way of playing.

We love games like this so follow IndieGems for more regular reviews like this one.
Review Showcase
The eighties and nineties hold a warm place in my heart. It’s when I went to school, experienced lots of firsts, and it was an exciting and memorable part of my life. Lost Records Bloom and Rage captures that feeling of exploration and innocence in the form of four young girls and their blossoming relationship. The main plot takes a while to build, but it is just pleasant listening to their conversations and being involved in their activities. Some of the scenes are emotionally charged, heart-warming, and often just silly or amusing, like care free teenagers often are. We listen to them talking about escaping their small-town existences and their lives are full of hope and promise. There’s not much to do in their town so they are always looking for imaginative solutions to combat boredom and it was fun to watch and participate.

You play as Swann, a shy and unconfident girl who meets Autumn, Nora, and Kat, at the local ice cream parlor in the sleepy town of Velvet Cove, where they all live. A friendship between the four begins and we follow them as they play out the Summer of 1995 in their own unique way. Twenty-seven years later a reunion is organized after a package is received by Autumn alluding to the fact that their dark and terrible secret of that Summer is known. The time line then flips and flops between the two periods as the plot is revealed. It’s worth noting that the game comes in two halves called Rage and Bloom, and the second part will be released on the 15 April as a free download.

Don’t Nod are masters at storytelling, presentation, and character development, and so far, part one of this installment has been very enjoyable. I love the retro atmosphere they have produced in Lost Records. The characters, locations, and their relationships are expertly done with plenty of well voiced dialogue and captivating cut scenes. The music is so good that I had to search Spotify for the soundtrack and found playlists for each character, along with the main soundtrack. The mellow synth sounds with retro vibes and soft female voices is very relaxing and hypnotic. If you enjoy storytelling then it is easy to get completely immersed and invested in Lost Records.

If you’ve played any of the Life is Strange series then you will know what to expect in the sense of how you can be transported into the story, along with interactive features that merge you effortlessly into various situations where you have to make choices and react to dialogue, either affecting relationships or having consequences further along the line. There are some timed decisions, and other decisions are not revealed until you find them in the scene, which could mean locating an item or a person before it shows. During normal dialogue certain answers will either please or displease that person and may have consequences later. At the end of the chapter, your relationship between each character is revealed and some of the more important decisions are compared with global stats.

The main protagonist Swann is a keen videographer, and was given a camcorder for her sixteenth birthday which she uses to film certain events and locations to create memoirs which she keeps in her inventory. It’s important to get your camera out in every situation and scan the area until a target area is revealed. Once you film it for a few seconds it will reveal a subject, for example if you film some ants eating an ice cream it will reveal critters 1/10, and therefore throughout the game you are looking for nine more critters. There’s a surprising number of these memoirs to find and they will keep you busy looking for them throughout the game. It encourages exploration and although the game is quite linear, you can often reveal interesting items lying around which you can pick up and examine, or reveal hidden elements through exploration.

Each scene can be replayed in either collectible mode or story mode, with collectible mode not affecting any progress, but story mode will reset any choices you have previously made and create new ones. I found the story mode to be a little tedious because although you can skip cutscenes through the menu, you can’t fast forward dialogue so you have to sit through all that again waiting for a chance to turn your camera on and locate the memoirs you have missed. There are also lots of achievements to get but you’ll have to consult a guide or similar to find out what they are because they are all hidden, but these can mostly be obtained through the story mode also.

The game revolves around the story though, and although I did enjoy the memoir parts of the game, I was more interested in the story and the girl’s relationships. There are some great characters in the game and the scenes feel so interactive sometimes and impressively realized. The voice acting was superb and the music compliments the story perfectly with some memorable moments throughout.


🍳Conclusion🍳
Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is another really enjoyable game from the Don’t Nod studio with a retro vibe and flawless voice acting.

If you are a lover of narrative games and appreciate character development and an interactive approach to storytelling, then I would urge you to try this one out. I can’t wait for part two.
