In *Astro Bot*, players can explore numerous worlds, but the most intriguing are the ten secret worlds hidden within the Lost Galaxy. These can only be accessed by discovering hidden portals scattered across ten different levels. Here’s a detailed guide on where to find these portals to unlock the mysteries of the Lost Galaxy.
Where Are the Portal Locations to the Lost Galaxy in Astro Bot?
As you navigate through *Astro Bot*, you'll notice some stages marked with a swirly icon alongside the count of bots and puzzle pieces. This icon indicates the presence of a portal to the Lost Galaxy. These portals might be tucked away early in a level or just before you reach the end, so vigilance is key. Or, for a more straightforward approach, use this comprehensive guide to locate and access each portal.
Hidden Portal #1: Az-Tech Trail
Midway through the level, you'll enter a dark room with a wall encircled by four lit torches. Extinguish these fires using the Twin-Frog Gloves, and a secret passage will reveal itself, leading to the portal.
Hidden Portal #2: Creamy Canyon

After it charges at you, grab it and swing it toward the edge of your platform until it targets an icy statue. Release the pig to smash the statue, then backtrack, flip the ladybug, and use it to bounce up to a new platform. Execute a charged spin attack to enter a room with the hidden portal.
Hidden Portal #3: Go-Go Archipelago

Hidden Portal #8: Balloon Breeze

Flip the ladybug and propel it toward the platform's edge. Bounce on it, activate the puffer-fish, and use Astro's hover to reach the platform. Use motion controls to clear the surrounding bamboo and reveal the portal. Circle its perimeter to activate it.
Hidden Portal #9: Djinny of the Lamp
