Follow the path of platforms on top of the largest rock where you’ll find the bot surrounded by several enemies.

Bot 3 – Slumbering Girl

Either before or after you’ve freed the robot, swing on the rope hanging from a bird in the back right of the area. Break through the red door, then go to the far right corner of the blue floor. Break the floor there and you’ll find a jump pad leading up to a platform. Break the blue wall there to reach a secret. There’s a jump pad hidden under the blue breakable floor in the top left-hand corner. Jump to the ledge to find the bot.

The level changes quite significantly once you’ve freed the robot, so make sure to explore thoroughly after breaking the shackles.

Bot 4

After freeing the robot, head to where it was lying on the beach previously. You’ll find a small tear in what looks like a circular sandbox. Use spin to drain the sand and find the bot.
