Locate the Flashback Tapes in Crash Bandicoot 4

Every main stage of Crash has one Flashback Tape. So there are a total of 21 tapes available that you need to collect while playing the levels. The only requirement to obtain these tapes is that you have to get the tapes without dying. While playing a stage, you have to be careful until you get the tape, but you can die afterward to finish the level once you have it. So here are the locations of Flashback tapes.

Crash Compactor Tape Location

The first tape will be available on the first level. It will be in front of you, so you simply need to run towards it and grab it.
