Finding Keys in Fantastic Ratatouille on PSP

Ratatouille (PSP, 2007) by Heavy Iron Studios / THQ is a linear 3D platformer. **Keys are progression items** found in specific levels — not hidden behind cheats or codes.

General Key Locations (Story Order)

1. Sewers / Kitchen Intro: Tutorial keys — taught by Emile (brother). Cannot miss.
2. Market District: Keys dropped by chefs / in crates / on rooftops. Use **Sniff (L)** to highlight interactables (glowing).
3. Restaurant (Gusteau's): Keys in pantry, office, dining room, roof. Required to unlock new areas / progress story.
4. Food Critic / Final Levels: Keys for freezer, wine cellar, Ego's office.

Gameplay Tips

• Sniff (L Button): **Essential.** Highlights all nearby collectibles, keys, exits, enemies. Use constantly.
• Double Jump (X + X): Reach high ledges where keys sit.
• Wall Kick / Wall Run: Access vents/rooftops.
• Mini-Games: Some keys rewarded for completing cooking mini-games (timed button prompts).
• Replay Levels: Level Select (Main Menu) → Replay any level to find missed keys/collectibles (recipes, stars).

If Stuck on a Specific Key
