'''Keys''' are items found in the [[dungeon]]s of every [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda game]]. They are necessary for advancing through locked doors. Keys can be obtained through a variety of different puzzles. For example, sometimes you may need to defeat all the enemies in a room. Other times you may need to break a hole in the wall with your bombs. In some situations you need to do what you least expect, and that way it will be easier to advance to victory. Once a key is used, it disappears.

The '''Small Key''' is featured in many Zelda games. It can be found in small chests and by killing enemies, such as [[Rat]]s In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', but could actually be bought in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. A Small Key can be used to open [[Locked Door|locked doors]] that have chains around them<ref>{{cite|You found a Small Key! This key will open a locked door. You can use it only in this dungeon. |Ocarina of Time}}</ref> and [[Key Block|key blocks]]. In every Zelda game, except ''The Legend of Zelda'', they can only be used in the dungeon where they're found.
