Astro Bot is a puzzle platformer that Sony recently released as an exclusive to the PlayStation 5. The game has already received praise from many players.
The game pays homage to the studio's legacy in the video game industry and is a relatively straightforward title for players to pick up.
Team Asobi was able to create an amazing gaming experience for players that communicates with them without any direct communication.
Players who are planning to dive into this immersive world that can make your gaming experience even smoother. These tips and tricks are some of the things that you should keep in mind to make the most out of Team Asobi's masterpiece.
Directing Yourself to Collectibles
Astro Bot has a lot of hidden collectibles similar to other platformer games that are stored away in various corners of each level. These include other bots, puzzle pieces, or secret level entrances, according to Kotaku.
If you do find yourself having a difficult time tracking down these collectibles, the game can direct you to them. When you finish a level at least once, you can go back and find a birdhouse at the start of the stage.
You need 200 coins to open it but once you do, a little robot bird companion will direct you to collectibles as you progress through the level. You only need to pay it once to unlock this particular feature.
Adjust Gyro Controls
You can immediately adjust your settings before going into the actual game and one recommendation is gyro controls. The Astro Bot franchise has showcased the technological prowess of the PlayStation console's peripherals and gimmicks.
These include gyro controls using the DualSense controller that lets you control your character's motion in a different way. Some players may not find this easy to use so turning it off immediately is the way to go, said GameRant.
Break All Pots and Boxes
Similar to games like The Legend of Zelda titles, Astro Bot has a lot of breakables that players can destroy to receive coins. The main thing about this is that there could be a secret hidden underneath them that you can unlock by breaking the item.
Use Coins When You Can
Coins in Astro Bot don't seem like they are really used for a lot during the early stages of the game. However, once you get to the Gacha store, you can use this currency to unlock a variety of things.
These include a puzzle as well as a Zombie for the Resident Evil franchise's Leon S. Kennedy to interact with. You also need coins to unlock the robot bird companion that we mentioned earlier in this article.
Explore as Much as You Can
Astro Bot is a game that rewards players if they explore as much as they can because they will most likely find something hidden somewhere. With more than 50 levels to play through, there are a lot of hidden secrets that you can look for.
These things include puzzle pieces, Bots, or even a passageway to a different area. Even just exploring by itself is already an experience because of Astro Bot's beautiful world, according to HardcoreGamer.
