Hey guys! Ready to dive back into Astro's Playroom on your PS5? This game is seriously a hidden gem, and I'm here to walk you through getting all those pesky puzzle pieces. Collecting them is a big part of the fun, and trust me, it's worth it! This guide will break down each world, showing you exactly where to find every single puzzle piece so you can get that sweet, sweet completion. Let's get started!

CPU Plaza Puzzle Pieces

Alright, let's kick things off in the CPU Plaza. This is the hub world, and it's loaded with collectibles. You'll want to explore every nook and cranny. Remember to use all the abilities of Astro to find all the puzzle pieces. Here's the lowdown on the puzzle pieces in this area:

Welcome Plaza: From the starting point, look for the area where you can bounce around. There will be some platforms that you can get to, including a hidden area. Explore the area thoroughly, and you will find your first puzzle piece. This is pretty much right at the beginning. It's designed to get you used to the mechanics, so it shouldn’t be too tough. Make sure you're using all the abilities – the jump, the dash, and the hover – to reach the platforms. It’s all about exploring and getting familiar with the controls.
GPU Area: Head towards the GPU Area, a bit further in. You will find another puzzle piece in this area. Again, the level design will guide you, but keep an eye out for hidden pathways. The game does a good job of leading you, but it also rewards curiosity, so don’t be afraid to veer off the beaten path. Always look up, down, and all around. The pieces are usually in plain sight once you know where to look. Try using the dash ability to get across gaps. This ability is important for moving to each of the puzzle pieces.
Memory Meadow: Moving on to Memory Meadow, you'll find a puzzle piece located in a hidden area that is slightly out of the way. Look for a section that requires some precise platforming. These sections are typically where the puzzle pieces are hidden. Take your time, and don’t rush. You can always use the environment to help yourself, especially with the direction of the camera. The goal is to explore every area that you can find.
SSD Speedway: Another puzzle piece is hidden within the SSD Speedway. This area might seem straightforward, but keep an eye out for a secret platform that's off the main track. The pieces are often in places that require a little bit of exploration to find. You might need to use a specific ability to reach the platform. If you’re stuck, don’t be afraid to watch a quick video guide to help you out.

Each puzzle piece in CPU Plaza is relatively easy to get. The game teaches you the basics of exploration in the first world. The CPU Plaza is all about getting you acquainted with the gameplay, so you should have no trouble getting all the pieces. Make sure you don't miss out on these pieces to get the full Astro experience!

Cooling Resort Puzzle Pieces

Alright, let's head over to the Cooling Resort. This is where things start to get a little bit more interesting. The levels are a bit more complex, and the puzzle pieces might require a bit more searching. Don’t worry; I’m here to help you get through it. Here's a breakdown of the Cooling Resort puzzle pieces:

Beach: Begin in the beach area. In this area, you'll find a puzzle piece hidden in the sand. Look around for a little spot that is slightly elevated. There's a section here that requires a bit of skill. You might need to use a combination of jumping and dashing to get there. Make sure to explore the area thoroughly. The puzzle piece will most likely be in a spot that encourages exploration and uses all of the abilities.
Pool: This area has a puzzle piece that is located near the pool. You will need to make your way through the area, looking for a spot that is just a bit away from the main path. The environment will guide you. The game makes sure that you understand the mechanics, so it is quite simple to locate. Make sure that you explore every part of this area.
Ice: Next up is the ice area. The puzzle piece is hidden in a part of the level where you need to move across a slippery surface. You might need to adjust your approach or use specific abilities to get across. The game will test your platforming skills here. This is a bit of a tricky area compared to the others. Be patient, and don’t be afraid to try a few times to get it. Watch out for hazards like ice blocks and slippery surfaces.
Snow: The last puzzle piece in the Cooling Resort is in the snow area. It's hidden in a secret location that requires a bit of skillful jumping. Look for an area off to the side, maybe hidden behind some obstacles. This is the last piece in the cooling resort, so make sure you don't miss it. You're getting closer to collecting all the pieces. Keep going, and you'll get there.

The Cooling Resort ups the ante, but it's still manageable. Remember to explore every area thoroughly and to use all of Astro's abilities.

GPU Jungle Puzzle Pieces

Next up, we're diving into the GPU Jungle! Things get a little wilder here, but don't worry; we'll find those puzzle pieces. The jungle is packed with secrets. Pay close attention to the environment, and always be looking for hidden pathways. Here's how to snag those puzzle pieces:

Jungle Entrance: Right from the start, there is a puzzle piece. Look around the entrance for a slightly hidden spot. The puzzle piece may require some skill to grab. Don’t rush; take your time.

Deep Jungle: Another puzzle piece is in the Deep Jungle. You will have to do a little bit of platforming to get it. You might need to use specific abilities to navigate the area. The level is quite linear, but you will need to pay attention to your surroundings to get it. If you're stuck, just keep exploring. The environment is designed to guide you.
River: You will find the next puzzle piece in the River area. This area requires a bit of swimming and underwater exploration. The puzzle piece might be in a hidden underwater cave or behind some obstacles. Take your time to get there. Underwater areas are full of secrets. Keep an eye out for anything that looks out of place. This will give you a good clue about where to go.
Waterfall: The last puzzle piece in the GPU Jungle is hidden behind a waterfall. You will probably need to jump and dash to get to this location. The waterfall is a good hiding spot, so explore the area behind it. Watch out for enemies, and don't forget to use all of your abilities.

The GPU Jungle introduces new environmental challenges, but the same principles apply. Exploration is key, and you should use all of Astro’s abilities.

Race Track Entrance: As soon as you enter the area, you’ll find a puzzle piece. Look around for a hidden path right at the entrance. The game will guide you, but be sure to look at all sides.
