How to find the Ice Key in Deltarune Chapter 3
If you've been digging deep into Deltarune's Chapter 3 secret ending, you'll have likely heard of various keys required to unlock an item leading into a hidden boss. The first of these secret items is the Ice Key, which you can only find during a specific section of Chapter 3. Table of contents How to unlock the Original Minigame in Deltarune Chapter 3 Ice Key location in Deltarune Chapter 3 How to use the Ice Key in Deltarune Chapter 3 How to unlock the Original Minigame in Deltarune Chapter 3 Finding the Ice Key requires progressing far enough into Deltarune Chapter 3 to complete the first round of Tenna's game show. More importantly, you need to complete the game show's first round with an S-rank to unlock an "S" labelled door in the Green Room. Screenshot by Destructoid After completing the first round of Tenna's game show, you'll enter what's known as the Green Room to relax and save your game before advancing. In the top-right corner of this room is a door with an "S" on it, which you can only access if you achieve an S-rank in the round. If you didn't get an S-rank, you can either replay part of the chapter again or buy the rank for 1,500 points. As you enter this room and progress forward, you'll discover its secret: a somewhat gross dressing room. It may look rough at first, but there are some funny interactions you can have here. More important, though, is a character blocking a doorway. Talk to them to unlock the "original game," letting you have direct access to the Ice Key and get one step closer to unlocking Deltarune's Chapter 3 secret ending and boss.

Doing this will create a direct path to the Ice Key and conclude the game for this round. Your first goal is to find the sword. Starting from your spawn location, follow the directions below to find it: Go south until you see a fish in a pond. Travel left, followed by south along two screens. Go east, followed by south. Head down the staircase. Screenshot by Destructoid Down this staircase is a sword at the end of a path. Pick it up to start slaying some enemies. You'll find enough around the map to reach level three, letting you break cactuses to unlock another part of the map. Once you hit level three, travel southeast until you spot a long path blocked off by two cactuses. Slice them with your sword to open the second half of the area. This new area will let you reach max level, enabling you to break palm trees around the map. Head back to the cactus entrance before destroying the trees directly south of you. You'll create a direct path down, traveling around five screens south, until you spot a treasure chest.
