'''Boss Keys''' are [[List of items|items]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' that each unlock one of the numbered padlocks of [[K. Lumsy]]'s cage. There are eight Boss Keys, and as their name suggests, each is guarded by a boss. The [[Kong]]s can obtain each one by defeating a boss, except the eighth and final one, which is located in [[Hideout Helm]], behind a steel door in [[King K. Rool]]'s throne room. The [[Nintendo Coin]] and [[Rareware Coin]] are both needed to open it. [[Army Dillo]] and [[Dogadon]] are fought twice, which means each of them carry two Boss Keys. | |||
After opening a padlock, K. Lumsy boisterously celebrates and causes a heavy tremor. This usually opens previously-blocked entrances to other levels. After using all eight Boss Keys, the cage containing K. Lumsy lifts, and he is freed. | |||
Obtaining Key 8 in a certain way might prevent it from saving to the inventory. If the Kongs revisit Hideout Helm, the Boss Key respawns.<ref>Exchord. (May 5, 2014). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_w8-QC-rW0 Avoiding Fake Key]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved September 19, 2023.</ref> | |||
