There are many key designs in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and its sequel, but each only opens doors in the area they are found. There are Castle Keys for every castle and fortress, and various others keys in different locations. In ''Paper Mario'', they were used in [[Tubba Blubba's Castle]], [[Bowser's Keep|Bowser's flying castle]], and [[Princess Peach's Castle|Peach's Castle]]. [[Tubba Blubba]]'s keys look like three leaf clovers, while [[Bowser]]'s look like a gold three leaf clover with a blue ball in the middle. There are about three of Tubba's keys and five of Bowser's keys. [[Princess Peach|Peach's]] Castle Keys are pink versions of Bowser's. Also, a living key called [[Yakkey]] locked the Gusty Gulch Windmill.

In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', keys appear much more prominently than in the previous installments. They are used in nearly every level to open locked doors. Each place has a different type of key.

===''Luigi's Mansion''===
===''Luigi's Mansion'' series===
[[File:KeyLM.png|thumb|60px|left|A key from ''Luigi's Mansion''.]]
{{main|Key (Luigi's Mansion series)}}
In ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', [[Luigi]] had to collect many keys before he could advance to other rooms. They were usually found in [[Treasure Chest]]s, although some could be found right out in the open. Also, there are four special keys, with each one having a different card suit: heart, club, diamond, and spade.
Keys also appear as an item in the [[Luigi's Mansion (series)|''Luigi's Mansion'' series]]. Similar to [[Key (The Legend of Zelda)|Key]]s in [[The Legend of Zelda (series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], each key has a one-time use of unlocking a specific door in a mansion, allowing [[Luigi]] to progress.
 
===''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon''===
Keys return in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'', with a different design. They're again used to open doors and any key can be used to unlock a door. In the [[Old Clockworks]], a key can be generated from a gold pot.
 
For an unknown reason, perhaps the mansion's machinery, a key is turned to dust after being used to open a door. The only exception for this rule is the Front-Door Key of the [[Treacherous Mansion]].

[[Bowser]] owns various keys in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. These so-called Bowser Keys are usually found in [[Minigame|Bowser Minigame]]s, and are necessary to escape from Bowser. In earlier ''Mario Party'' games, Bowser Keys are simply keys shaped like Bowser's head. In later games, they are engraved with Bowser's likeness. The minigame [[Locked Out]] from ''[[Mario Party]]'' features keys with key heads shaped like mushrooms, flowers and stars.

In the Subspace Emissary mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Emissary Keys are found somewhere near locked gates. If the player finds a key and tries to go through the gate while having it in his or her hand, the gate will become unlocked.

You can touch a door while holding the key, or you can even throw the key at a door to unlock it. If you lose the key, it will return to the place you originally found it. This item is vital to your progress, so do your best not to lose it.''
