Getting the Red Key / Getting to the Red Key Slot

Detailed walkthrough for Duke Nukem 3D on how to obtain the Red Key and use it to progress through the Babes of the Caribbean ride, including secret areas and enemy encounters.

This guide covers how to find the Red Key and access the Red Key slot in Duke Nukem 3D, including two secret areas and the progression through the Babes of the Caribbean ride.

1. Secret 1: Shoot the second target from the left twice. This lowers a platform with prizes. Defeat the two Pig Cops that attack to obtain the Red Key, Night Vision Goggles, and Body Armor. This secret is mandatory for level completion.
2. Secret 2: In the gallery, blow up the cracked wall opposite the entrance. Two Alien Drones will attack. Inside this secret area, you will find a box of Shotgun Shells.
3. Using the Red Key: After obtaining the Red Key, return to the hub area and locate the "Babes of the Caribbean" ride, identified by a sign.
4. The Red Key Slot: The Red Key slot is inside a booth guarded by a Pig Cop. There is also Chaingun Cannon Ammo in the booth.
5. Progression: Use the Red Key in the slot to lower the Forcefield in front of the revolving door. Be aware of a Pig Cop that will attack from the booth's entrance.
6. Enemies Ahead: Enter the revolving door and prepare for combat. You will face three Troopers on Jetpacks (with a Small Medikit nearby) and an Alien Drone that spawns behind you.
7. Further Encounters: Continue down the walkway to a room with an Alien Drone and a Pig Cop. Two Small Medikits are located on the walls in this area.
8. Main Ride: Proceed to the main part of the ride when ready.
