The Face Key is the fourth Dungeon Key obtained by Link in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. To obtain the Face Key, Link must defeat the Armos Knight in the Ancient Ruins. Link can then go to the Face Keyhole and insert the Face Key to reveal the concealed entrance to the sixth dungeon, the Face Shrine.
The Face Key's depiction varies between games and artwork, but it is always shown with a face, hence its name. The Nintendo Player's Guide for The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening depicts the Face Key as a smiling tribal face. The Nintendo Switch remake depicts the Face Key as light pink and having hollow eyes with two diamond-shaped borders; the inner one is magenta, and the outer one is lavender.
