They are a set of four golden [[key]]s, though in the remake, each Wish Key received a distinct design based on their world theme: The [[Dino Domain]]'s key has a skull design, [[Snowflake Mountain]]'s key is made of ice, [[Sherbet Island]]'s key resembles a golden anchor, and [[Dragon Forest]]'s key has the same gold appearance as before. Each world has a Wish Key hidden in one of its courses, and collecting it unlocks the Challenge Level door of that world. After each key is retrieved, the character can choose to either win or quit the race. Their role was slightly changed in the DS remake, where each Wish Key unlocks a [[Wish Race]] against [[T.T.]]


Wish Keys appear in the following locations:
'''Wish Keys''',<ref>''Diddy Kong Racing DS'' manual, page 11</ref> otherwise known as '''Keys''',<ref>''Unauthorized Guide to Diddy Kong Racing'', Prima Games, page 34</ref> are a set of four keys that appear in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''. Each Wish Key is hidden in a racetrack of all four worlds, and unlock the Challenge Level door of their respective world.

All four Wish Keys are large, golden keys in the original version. Their role was slightly changed in the DS remake, where each Wish Key unlocks a [[Wish Race]] against [[T.T.]]. Each one also received their own redesign except for the one of [[Dragon Forest]]. Most of their redesigns is based on their respective world theme. [[Dino Domain]]'s key has a skull design, [[Snowflake Mountain]]'s key is made of ice, and [[Sherbet Land]]'s key resembles a golden anchor.
