How to Get a Slime Key in Slime Rancher

Recommended Videos

While playing Slime Rancher, players will notice Slime Gates that can only be used with a key, a Slime Key. You can receive keys by feeding several Slimes found in the game.

You can feed the Phosphor, Honey, Rad, the second Tabby, Boom, Quantum and the Pink Gordos in Slime Rancher. The Pink Gordos will only require 50 food items, while everything else will cost 75. The best thing to do is to figure out the Slime’s favorite food, which will help halve the amount needed. Once you feed it with the appropriate amount, you will receive several items including a Slime Key.

Rock Gordos will not provide a Slime Key, and the same goes for the first Tabby. Instead, they will have teleporters. Only five out of seven keys can be used, with only a select few areas such as The Slime Sea, Dry Reef, Moss Blanket and the Indigo Quarry being access points.

It would be best to pop all the Slimes as soon as possible even if all the keys don’t have a use yet. When Slime Rancher does get updated and all the keys are given specific functions, you won’t have to go hunting for the Slimes later on and deal with the requirements changing as it has before.

That’s all you need to know to get a Slime Key in Slime Rancher. For more on Slime Rancher, be sure to check back with Twinfinite.
