All Machine Learning collectibles in Astro Bot

Now I need to revisit Aloy and friends.

There are a few levels in Astro Bot that are nothing short of incredible. Don’t get me wrong; the entire game is phenomenal, but levels like Machine Learning are love letters to the franchises they honor. Lest you fall victim to their charms and miss each collectible, here’s a handy list on finding every bot and puzzle piece.

Where to find every bot and puzzle piece in Machine Learning

Machine Learning Bots

Bot 1 (Loyal Oseram): Aloy’s best friend, Erend, is found after you create the log bridge. He’s off to the right on a small plateau, being bullied by some electric bots. Shoot the arrow symbol on the I-beam to make a bridge out of it and slay all that stand in your way.

Bot 2 (Security Scouter): The Watcher is found in the next area, with the rocket frogs hiding in the pond. To your right will be some ruins of a building with our hapless bot ensnared by a balloon. Shoot it down and add it to your collection.

Bot 3 (Paternal Outcast): The best father a cloned girl could ask for is dangling from a crystal in a cavern. Swim through and be mindful of the robo fish. When you surface, turn to the right, and you’ll see him hanging.

Bot 4 (Grass Guzzler): The Grazer bot is found in the area with the Tall Neck walking in circles. It’s trapped in a trip-wire fence with a few nasty bots bullying it. Hop the wires, take out the bots, and free the adorable little guy.

Bot 5 (Cherished Wanderer): Last, but certainly not least, is Sylens. He is located in the flooded room just past the area with the circling tall Neck. After taking the rope down, turn around and swing to the platform to free him. Rest in peace, Lance Reddick. You are sorely missed.

Machine Learning Puzzle Pieces

Piece 1: The first puzzle piece is acquired on approach with the Dual Speeder. Boost as soon as you are able, avoid the first Tall Neck’s legs, and then veer right to nab the piece atop the second Tall Neck’s head.

Piece 2: After nabbing the “What a Trip!” Trophy, hang a left, and you’ll see a small mountaintop in the distance. Line up a tricky shot to destroy the crate in the center, and the second puzzle piece will be yours.

Piece 3: The third and final puzzle piece is located in the area with the Tall Neck walking in circles. You’ll see some deer grazing and a ghost walking through a wall. If you look on the right side, there will be a crack with an explosive barrel you can shoot. Blow it to smithereens to clear the way.
