Key Dee, called Carry Dee in this game's internal files, can be found in many stages in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' and its [[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe|remake]], usually inside a closed chamber—starting in a place where Kirby cannot reach it. From here, some mechanism can usually be tripped to set the Key Dee free, where it will then run off with its Key. Kirby will have to chase down the Key Dee and intercept it before it falls into a [[bottomless pit]] or other hazard, taking the Key with it. Other times, Kirby will have to stop the Key Dee from using the Key on the wrong [[door]]. | |||
Key Dees can move at various speeds, and have the ability to jump over certain obstacles when their path is blocked. They tend to fall off cliffs, though, so Kirby may have to make them a path in some instances. In [[Extra Mode]], Key Dees generally move faster, making it harder for Kirby to keep up. In [[Magolor Epilogue: The Interdimensional Traveler]], some Key Dees can be seen carrying [[Magic Point]]s. | |||

Kirby's Return to Dream Land / Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe[edit]
Key Dee, called Carry Dee in this game's internal files, can be found in many stages in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and its remake, usually inside a closed chamber—starting in a place where Kirby cannot reach it. From here, some mechanism can usually be tripped to set the Key Dee free, where it will then run off with its Key. Kirby will have to chase down the Key Dee and intercept it before it falls into a bottomless pit or other hazard, taking the Key with it. Other times, Kirby will have to stop the Key Dee from using the Key on the wrong door.
Key Dees can move at various speeds, and have the ability to jump over certain obstacles when their path is blocked. They tend to fall off cliffs, though, so Kirby may have to make them a path in some instances. In Extra Mode, Key Dees generally move faster, making it harder for Kirby to keep up. In Magolor Epilogue: The Interdimensional Traveler, some Key Dees can be seen carrying Magic Points.
