Road 96: Tape Collectible Location Guide
Set in the fictional country of Petria in 1996, Road 96 is an unabashedly political, coming-of-age adventure game.

All of this is set to a fantastic soundtrack featuring artists such as The Toxic Avenger, Robert Parker, and more; with the songs being hidden as collectable cassette tapes throughout the game.
There are 18 tapes to collect in total and you won't find any duplicates, which makes your life easier. But because all the encounters are randomised — except for Zoe, it can be hard to know where to start. So we’ll run through where you can find all the cassettes in each chapter as they pop up.

The second chance is when you fall asleep, Zoe will wake you to come to hang out with her. After playing the trombone, she’ll soon give you a tape to remember the moment.
When you've completed the first chapter, you’ll be able to choose a missing teen to play as. Since you’re collecting tapes, choose a character with at least $10 so you can buy cassettes from traders.
