Are you finding Atomfall difficult? Struggling to find the right weapon or keycard for the situation? How about missing a key recipe? The game is full of puzzles, items, and keys you’ll find that’ll send you to your next lead, and in this guide we’ll explain where you can find the castle fireplace key within the druid’s castle, allowing for an easy shortcut within this stronghold.
Where to Find the Castle Fireplace Key in Atomfall
During your journey through Atomfall, you will eventually come across the Druid castle within the area of Casterfell Woods and will be tasked with fighting your way through this large area. Although there are a few different ways to make your way through this large castle, one way will shorten your journey by a large portion and avoid a large amount of combat.

One of the best features of Atomfall is the ability to use different pathways to tackle a daunting objective, with one of these pathways being a fireplace that holds a secret door leading to the heart of the druid’s castle.
If you decide to walk through the front door of the castle rather than looking for an alternate route, you will eventually come across a large dining hall. At the end of this dining hall is a throne that holds a fireplace behind it with a keyhole placed directly next to it.
This will cause you to ask yourself, where is the key to this fireplace? Well, do not worry, as we have the directions written below for you to follow.
- As you are looking at the fireplace, turn to your left, and there will be an archway-shaped passageway.
- Once you have passed through the passageway, follow the path through another archway, and then turn immediately to your right, and there will be a small door.
- This door will lead you into the kitchen of the druid’s castle. Once you enter the kitchen, follow the pathway around, and you will then see a long wall with a kitchen counter on the left-hand side.
- On this counter there will be a small lit candle; just next to this candle is where the key resides.
Now that you have obtained this key, you will finally be able to access the fireplace’s secret passageway that will lead you into the heart of the castle, providing a shortcut for many of the leads that hide in the depths of this cursed place.
