There's no place your supposed to use it. There is this place and another place later on where it can be useful.

EDIT: Actually, no. This is one of the better places to use it.

Why you want to use it here? What you want to accomplish using it here? I am sure that there is no secret room connected to this one so I have no Idea about your intentions?

Well, I can blow a crapload of HP letting swordsmen beat the crap out of me, or I can kill one red guard and then use it and save a lot of HP.

As long as there's no necessary spot, I'm satisfied.

I never considered using it here. Interesting idea, really. There are so many places like this where its use would save much HP or keys, too bad you only get one shot!
For the record, I used it in

actually i tried both ways to use the pikaxe. this room is solvable in both ways too. the easier one was (imho) to save a blue key, but boosting my ATK as soon as possible.

You'll want to restore to an earlier save. Those are definitely not the best places to use the bomb or the pickaxe.

Here's the most secret room (3S, 1E) for the curious: not worth the cost of the pickaxe, although a rich trove.

However, we have to assume that the game is structured to allow
100% success, and if the pickaxe is the only way to view this secret, then it's got to be optional to defeat the game ....

Okay, I'm confused. I don't think I had this trouble the first time, but when replaying TT lately, I'm always short a blue key at this point. No, I didn't waste one near the place where the hold ends.

All the blue keys and blue doors I know about:


What have I missed or forgotten?
