Astro Bot: All puzzle piece locations
There are two main collectibles in Astro Bot: the bots hidden in each level and the puzzle pieces. Puzzle pieces are used to open up new features at the crash site, such as cosmetics for your bots, ship, and Astro, and you will need all of them to open up the secret final level.
