The '''Key''' is an item, appearing in various ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' titles, which is needed to unlock certain objects. It first appeared in ''[[Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble]]'' with the express purpose of helping the Kirbys obtain items from within [[Treasure Chest]]s, but would take a more generalized purpose of unlocking [[Gate]]s and [[Door]]s in the main ''Kirby'' series, starting with ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{ | The '''Key''' is an item, appearing in various ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' titles, which is needed to unlock certain objects.

In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{ | In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{KRtDL KAW}}]]'', the Key is large and golden, with a blue star gem inset in the bow and two locks, designed in a lever type fashion. It glows with a consistent aura and emanates rays of light. | ||
The Key can be picked up, carried, and thrown like many other items in the game. Similarly, the character holding the Key can only make one jump and cannot use any attack but a [[Slide]]. When thrown, the Key can deal minor damage to enemies. The key can be used on any gate with a lock, and unlocking a gate will remove both key and gate from existence. Additionally, while holding the key, certain enemies, such as [[Scarfy|Hunter Scarfies]] and [[Degout|Hunter Degouts]] will pursue the carrier until that character no longer has the Key. | The Key can be picked up, carried, and thrown like many other items in the game.

In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{ | In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{KRtDL KAW}}]]'', holding on to a Key for too long will cause it to grow unstable and eventually shatter, much like the other items in the game. However, in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'' and onward, that limit has been removed. ''Triple Deluxe'' also introduces locked [[door]]s which can be opened using a key. | ||
In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', there are special col{{o}}r-coded Keys in addition to the usual ones. These keys can only be used on their matching-col{{o}}r door. | In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', there are special col{{o}}r-coded Keys in addition to the usual ones.
