Spoiler-free hint
Inspect the objective at the top of Red Tower. When it is complete, pay attention to the route around the item it releases instead of immediately leaving the tower area.
Stronger hint
The key has to change shape before the door accepts it. Follow the directional markings between the cutters and use every cutter in the chain.

Common mistakes and fixes
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| The key will not open the Map Room | It must go through the marked cutter sequence before it becomes the door key. |
| The tower has not released a key | Check that all five Red Tower reward slots are filled. |
| A guide names five specific puzzles | Treat that as a suggested route, not a confirmed mandatory list; the available evidence does not establish one fixed set. |
