Time for a good old fashioned treasure hunt with only the lightest implication of theft!

Find A Mysterious Key And We'll Tell You What It Unlocks

First off, choose a treasure-hunting tool

Are you bringing any snacks?

Where are you looking today?

How long are you planning to search?

What are you hoping to find?

This rusty key barely works with the lock, but with a good shove, it'll get in there. It opens the equipment shed at your old school. Inside, you find sports equipment, some tools for lawn upkeep, and a suitcase tucked behind a lawn mower. You open the suitcase, because you found the key, so everything in this building is technically yours, right? Finders keepers! It contains $150 in one dollar bills inside a plastic bag and three pairs of men's pajamas - size medium. Congratulations on a good haul and enjoy your new (heavily-used) lawn mower!

A Rusty Key

That's a pretty cool set of keys you found. They unlock the 50 cent capsule machines at your local grocery store! You'll have to be stealthy, but you can manage that. Congratulations on your new collection of 30-50 plastic toys, crude cartoon stickers, and assorted gumballs!

Several Brightly-Colored Keys

This little key unlocks the padlock on the gate of your local pool. Assuming you're stealthy, congrats on the free swimming time! Or if you don't swim, congrats on the free nacho cheese from the snack stand. They keep it under the sink in large plastic bags. Enjoy!

A Dingy Silver Key

Congratulations! You've found your neighbor's house key. You've got a few options here. You could, of course, return the key to your neighbor. Alternatively, if you don't like your neighbor much, you could enter their home under cover of night and move everything in their home a few inches to the left. Or change the preset channels on their kitchen radio. Something to really mess up their sense of normalcy. It's up to you. Choose your own key-based adventure!

Your Neighbor's House Key

Looks like this key unlocks a storage unit, which could contain anything from a dead body to assorted memorabilia from 'Gunsmoke' actor James Arness. You unlock the unit and find several boxes of old clothes, a pair of skis labelled 'Ricky's Revenge' in red paint, and evidence of mice. Hope you like skiing, or revenge. And of course: remember to keep the receipt when you bring those clothes to goodwill, you know, for your taxes.

A Small Gold Key

This key opens an old chest in your cousin's attic. Inside the chest are some old dresses, a golden statue of a cat, and a vengeful spirit that your grandmother managed to contain within the chest back in 1935. Maybe don't tell her you're the one who let it out. She'll be annoyed enough at having to come out of retirement for one last ghost-hunting job without knowing her irresponsible grandchild is the one who released it. But hey, look on the bright side - this key would look great on a necklace, so at least you have some options, fashion-wise.
