Follow this guide for Life is Strange: True Colors to navigate the record store, make dialogue choices, find Gabe's present, and trigger cutscenes.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon entering the record store, you'll experience a cutscene introducing a familiar character.
  2. 2
    You'll be given a choice between two records to play; the outcome is the same regardless of your choice.
  3. 3
    Alex meets Ryan, Gabe's best friend. Engage in dialogue and accept the task of finding the store's hold list for Gabe's present.
  4. 4
    Minor Decision: Near the entrance, find a listening station for a "Zen Moment" where Alex can reflect on events. Press B (Circle) when done.
  5. 5
    Observe a Firewalk banner on the wall near the back room as a callback to Life is Strange: Before the Storm.
  6. 6
    Locate Valkyrie, an adorable black cat, in the back-right corner. She is lying on the hold list.
  7. 7
    You have the choice to "Move" or "Scare" Valkyrie, but neither will get the list. Ryan suggests finding a toy to lure her.
  8. 8
    Go to the front desk and help Ryan. Choose between the shelf, drawer, metal box, or cash register. Each option provides dialogue and opens up a fifth option: the junk box, which contains the toy.
  9. 9
    Use the toy (a stuffed reindeer-mouse) to lure Valkyrie away from the hold list.
  10. 10
    Take the hold list, which triggers a lengthy cutscene.
  11. 11
    Minor Decision: During the cutscene, you can choose to "spill some dirt" on Gabe or not. Both options are fun.
  12. 12
    Further events will play out, concluding the scene.
Tips
  • Throughout this scene, you will receive MyBlock posts and text messages. Check them using the "View" button (or touchpad on PlayStation) when prompted by white text in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
  • The Zen Moments are opportunities for Alex to reflect on the story and relax.
  • The Firewalk banner is a nod to the developers' previous game, Life is Strange: Before the Storm.
  • The choice of dialogue options with Ryan and the interaction with Valkyrie offer enjoyable moments and character development.
