Shadow The Hedgehog (GameCube) - All Key Locations

Game: Shadow The Hedgehog System: GameCube Let's find all the Keys! Most of them are easy to find, but some of them are hard to find and get.

The award is an another car and an extra weapon? Well I guess it’s better than the other car, but I wouldn't say it's worth it. Digital Circuit: All of them are pretty easy to get. The award is a shortcut that has two different paths, I'd say it’s worth it. I always liked alternate paths. Glyphic Canyon: Very easy to find. The award is an alternate path full of enemies and items, worth it for the Hero mission. Lethal Highway: These can be pretty hard to find. The awards are two Gatling Guns, I guess it’s worth it for the Hero Mission, but I rather use the Shadow Rifle. Cryptic Castle: Pretty hard to find. The Award is an alternate path, I think it’s worth it. Prison Island: Simple to find. The award is Two Tank Cannons, for some reason these weapons are only behind locked doors. Maybe they’re worth it? Circus Park: These are very well hidden. The award is a Shooting Mini Game with the balloons in one small area next to each other, for 50 rings, I think it’s worth it. Central City: These are also well hidden. The award is a Saucer, worth it, it’s better to use the saucer more than the car. The Doom: Very hard to find. The award is a switch that unlocks the cage that has just one ring, and it opens a shortcut straight to the goal ring?! Definitely worth it! Although you don’t need all 5 keys for the shortcut… Sky Troops: The first four are easy to find, it’s the last one that is easy to miss. The award is an alternate path that’s has many items, I’d say it’s worth it. Mad Matrix: Most of there are easy to find, but a couple of them, not so easy and annoying to get! The award is a straight line to the Red Tower, I think it’s worth it for the Normal and Hero Mission. Death Ruins: The second and fourth keys... The award is a secret area with a bunch of items and rings. It’s not a shortcut but I’d say it’s worth it. The Ark: Good luck on that third key… The award is three extra lives? Really? Just use the Vacuum Egg, or use Chaos Blast, you don’t need the 5 keys. Air Fleet: Another level that has these keys well hidden. The award is a saucer that can grind the electric rail and a lot of weapons. Worth it. I know there are more electric rails but I don’t want to go through the entire level again with the saucer. Iron Jungle: Well hidden. The award is three Tank Cannons, I guess it’s worth it for the Hero Mission, but I still rather use the Shadow Rifle. Space Gadget: What was the point of the camera change for the third key, is that necessary? Just use the C stick to turn the camera and it’ll go back to normal. The award is a shortcut straight to the goal ring. Worth it. Lost Impact: Well hidden, however… The award is… a car. A Car? Seriously?! A CAR?! There are literally hundreds of things that they could have come up with! How about a room that has 5 Artificial Chaos? A Worm Hole that takes you straight to the Goal Ring? No! They decided to put a car there, this was a big slap in the face! Don’t bother wasting your time for this one! (I think I went overboard with this one.) GUN Fortress: These were pretty easy to find. The award is a shortcut with rings and three extra lives. Worth it. Black Comet: Three of these were easy to find, two of there were very well hidden. The award is more weapons and two Tank Cannons. I don’t know if I would say if it’s worth it. Lava Shelter: I find these keys easy to find. The award is a saucer, worth it if you want to go to that lava path that has extra lives. Cosmic Fall: These were annoying to find, but the award… The Award is a trail of rings leading you straight to The Computer Room. Definitely worth it! This is the best award in the entire game! This shortcut is very useful, especially in Expert Mode! Final Haunt: Another annoying search… The award is two turret cannons to shoot down the ships, I don’t find these worth it. The Last Way: That fourth key is a problem, just make sure to cancel Chaos Control for this key. The award is a Worm Hole that allows you to skip half of the level, worth it. Now that we found all the keys, there just one more mode left to play.
