All ‘Free Big Brother!’ bots and puzzle pieces in Astro Bot

“Free Big Brother!” is a level in the Serpent Star Road mist in Astro botIt has three puzzle pieces, seven bots (three of which are PlayStation mascots) and a secret exit for you to find.

In this Astro bot guide, we’ll show you how to get all the collectibles in this level so you can fill up your Crash Site.

“Free Big Brother!” is not nearly as linear as some of the other levels in Astro botand you have access to the entire area throughout the mission, meaning you can’t be locked out of collectibles.

The first bot is right in front of Big Brother’s head while he’s still tied up on the beach. In front of him are two pillar platforms, the highest of which has a slimy green enemy trying to attack a generic bot.

The second bot is on the hollowed out stone platform just to the right of where you start, opposite Big Brother’s head. There are a few ways to get here, including simply jumping from where you rescued the first bot in the level. But the goal is to use the bird on the right side of the map and swing up.

The third bot is on the right side of the map, near the glass floor and one of the locks. On the top cliff, you’ll see a glass wall that you can’t reach yourself. To get there, go to the glass floor and look for a corner on the right side. Hover over the glass to break it and reveal a trampoline, which will bounce you up the cliff. Smash through the glass to reveal a portal that will take you to the bot.

Inside the portal, you’ll find a number of electric enemies around the platform where the bot is hiding. Kill the enemies — be careful not to fall through the floor — then laser through the glass until you find a trampoline. Ride the trampoline over to the bot and punch it to save it.

The fourth bot is only available after you have broken all the locks and freed Big Brother. Once he stands up and the storm has stopped, go to where his head and chest were pressed into the sand. You will see a glowing crack in the ground behind the gazebo. Perform a charged melee attack to reveal a bot drowning in a sea of ​​pearls.

Once you save Big Brother, go to the big coin on the island where his torso was and he will create a huge island for you to climb. Jump on him and follow his arm to reach his shoulders. You will find a bone on Big Brother’s neck.

Once you reach the big red island that Big Brother has made for you, go up until you come across a glass floor and an electric enemy. If you move your camera to look under the glass, you will see a shell platform with a bot. Destroy the enemy and carefully drop down through the glass to save the bot.

The last bot in “Free Big Brother!” is near the end of the level. Near the clamshell at the end you’ll find a smaller clam, with a bone covered in seaweed inside.

There are three puzzle pieces you need to find in “Free Big Brother!” and they all appear before you start climbing Big Brother and his tower.

Inside the hollowed-out stone platform to the right of where you start the level — beneath bone #2 — you’ll find the first puzzle piece floating in the air. Jump in to grab it.

The second puzzle piece is located on the far right of the map, where you need to climb up and break one of the locks holding Big Brother. Climb up and break through the glass to reach the lock. Laser through the floor glass on your way there, and you’ll see a small cluster of mushrooms surrounding a piece of wire below. Jump down there and pull the wires to expose the puzzle piece.

The third and final puzzle piece is not available until you free Big Brother. Once he is freed and the storm stops, a gazebo will rise in the sand where Big Brother’s head was. Use the platforms to jump up to the roof of the gazebo and grab the puzzle piece.

The secret exit of “Free Big Brother!” is located very early on. As soon as you land, turn around and look for the large stone door with a few platforms in front of it. Walk up to it and spawn the lightning alien, then trick it into hitting the two electricity platforms and opening the door to the Ghouls and Bots level.
