The Silver trophies in Astro’s Playroom present a step up in difficulty compared to the Bronze, requiring more strategic gameplay and exploration. Earning these trophies involves mastering specific skills, discovering hidden areas, and completing more complex challenges within the game’s various environments. Earning s8 signifies that you have fully explored every nook and cranny of Astro’s Playroom, conquered all its obstacles, and collected every hidden secret. Beyond its nostalgic charm, Astro’s Playroom offers a rewarding trophy-hunting experience. The game features a meticulously designed list of trophies, ranging from simple tasks to more challenging feats.

In the picture above, you can spot the PSP, PS Vita and PSP Go port and button layouts from the top and bottom of the systems.

Coming as a pair of one red and one blue microphone, they came bundled with an adapter that both mics plugged into.

Astro’s Playroom Video Review

But in the midst of all that history, Astro feels like an adorably fresh face; I’m glad to see the character break out of the confines of VR and reach out to a broader audience. Astro’s Playroom may not be the deepest or most ambitious game on PS5, but its humor and playfulness are just delightful. Every function and feature of the controller gets a little time in the spotlight. Pervasive and distinct rumble effects steal the show, from the tiny sensation of Astro’s footsteps to thundering moments like an Indiana Jones-style boulder chase. The triggers offer resistance as you charge your jumps in a frog suit or operate the levers on a toy machine. Sliding your finger across the touchpad lets you direct your movement as you roll around in a ball.

This Special Bot is on the third section of the stage, Deep Dataspace. When arriving at the location, play as normal until just before the fourth checkpoint where you can yank a gun out of the ground in a small elevated platform to the left. Puzzle Piece 3/4 – Just after the pinball area you will slide across some ice blocks. This puzzle piece is just after one of the ledges you drop down on the blocks. You can hold the touchpad button down to bring yourself to a stop on the ice.

But, much like with the hardware artifacts, every era of PlayStation is represented in some truly hilarious ways. To unlock the 10 artifacts in the PS Labo, enter the PS Labo (bottom-left on the map) and go to the opposite side from where you started. On this machine, you can spend your collected coins to get 28 Puzzle Pieces and 10 artifacts. This means you will need at least 5.800 coins, but in reality, it’s a little bit more because there are some blank prices in the machine.

Once you encounter the first Shock Walls, make your way South-East into a pink area filled with spider webs you can thrust through. At the end you’ll find an Artefact, as well as a Bot hanging upside-down from the ceiling by a web. This is a reference to 2018’s Spider-Man, developed by Insomnia Games.

If you want to own all the collectibles in the game, you’ll need up to 6,000 coins to win prizes in the PlayStation Lab’s prize draw machine. If you’re having trouble getting those new messages to pop up, you might try waiting until you’ve completed the relatively short game’s main campaign. We had trouble getting the message to appear on a new save file but saw it immediately upon entering a completed one. Simply interact with each one, help the bots lift up the rock, and they will be added to your collection.
