Don't Tease with the Keys
“ In this mission, you must reclaim keys from enemy forces to unlock and reach the goal. ”
— O.R.C.A. describing the stage

Don't Tease with the Keys is the 67th level in Splatoon 3's story mode, Return of the Mammalians.

Description

The only Octarians in this mission are six Tentakooks, four of which hold keys. The Tentakooks scatter as soon as the player uses the dash track to jump to the main platform, and the player must hunt them down to capture the keys and unlock the four vaults blocking the path to the goal.

Trivia

  • Even if the player clears away the cardboard boxes that they would usually crash through when jumping to the main platform, Agent 1 will still complain about them when the player lands.
  • This is the first level in any single-player campaign in the Splatoon series to feature the Ink Mine as a usable sub weapon.
