To get the key (any BC) you need to hit the 4 bells around the location The order is from lowest pitch to highest The only advice i can give you is turn off your music in the options
When I first got to this area, I died because I stopped paying attention to my surroundings and just sat back and listened to the amazing music. I wasn't as mad about losing an hour's worth of progress as I was that I didn't get to hear the song play through in its entirety. Dead Cells is so brutal that even the music is a dangerous threat
Hands down my favorite level in the game, the vertical nature of it means it’s really easy to explore, not to mention being really fun just jumping between platform to platform even during the period when you haven’t got Spider Rune yet. Man, I love vertical levels.

Making it to the clock tower for the first time is such a surreal experience... You're 40+ minutes into your run, this is the furthest you've ever made it yet, and you know you're so close to the end. You have no idea what's in store for you now, but this legendary theme plays and inspires you to keep pushing for your first ever successful run. Beautiful game, 10/10 for sure
eh, I like sonic games, even some of the ones people really don't like, I kindoff like. atleast, the few that I have played. I guess for an universal version of that example, you could look to sonic 06, as there will probably not be as many people like me disagreeing if you say that.
Not to mention the bells that you ring are within the same key as the song. The lowest and highest and the same as the root note, just an octave apart, obviously. I just thought it was neat.
This is an absolute masterpiece. I'm pretty sure that will never visit the clock tower, 'cause I'm very bad at this game, but really I think that hear this theme while you are destroying enemies must be something really magic. Thank you.
tip for anyone still struggling to find the bell tower key: you have to find all 4 bells and hit them in the correct order; pitch going lowest to highest
If there's one thing Dead Cells does incredibly well, it's the vibe. The music, the backgrounds, even how the ground looks, it's all so beautiful and well done.
@@PiePiellow They're actually easy to deal with if you have a shield. I still think they're the second hardest enemy to learn how to deal with, after the Golems.
This song makes clock tower WAYYY better than forgotten sepulcher, maybe even the best location ever and best song along with ramparts and high peak castle
After listening to some of the new tracks from fatal falls, I had to revisit this one to see how it compares and.. well the new ones certainly give it a run for its money but I honestly don't think anything can top the clocktower theme. It's sooo good. I remember way back when I was playing as soon as the update dropped, rushing to this new clocktower area and being totally blown away by the level design, aesthetics, and of course, godlike soundtrack.
First time I went to this area, I was completing a time rush run that went surprisingly far. I died because of panick, I was in a rush searching for the time door (black then, time doors were in the levels). I realized a while after that this level did not have any time door. Pretty ironical considering that the area is litteraly a **clock tower**.
I absolutely love the aesthetic of the clock tower. Just all the gears, the bells, the chaotic nature of those jenga towers. The red and blue color palettes.
I remember my first time coming to this area. I absolutely dreaded subsequent visits. This was back when I was terrible at Dead Cells. Back when I hadn't quite grasped dodge rolling, when lacerators still inhabited the Clock Tower. Since then, over the years, I've gotten much better at Dead Cells, and this has become one of my favourite areas and themes.
I recently got the game and it's no joke, when I got to this area I paid more attention to the soundtrack than to the game itself, and most soundtracks have achieved the same thing... I just love this fckng game
THIS music, while playing THIS game stage, at THIS music part (2:48) made me think A LOT about how/what/why sound, music, visuals and stage desing are conected in a way that can trigger effects in your mind and subconsciousness. Maybe I'm talking too abstract or in a mystical way, but I can't find another way to describe it. I don't know why, but when this part of the music is playing at this stage, you have a great pleasure to climb the tower, specially in the narrow parts with rapid jumps. This is awesome. THIS game is unique in every way.
It’s been three years since the game’s release. I’ve listened to this song countless times. The game has other good songs, like The Astrolab and The Village, but man, this, this is just pure genius. I haven’t been able to get over this song and I think I never will. Valmont, wherever you are, thank you for such masterpiece.
Me (before entering clock tower): This game can't get any better Me (after listening to this masterpiece) : I take it back, playing this game is the best thing that happened to me lately 2:40 best part btw
i love how this song doesn't ever get too crazy perfectly portrays what the clocktower is no fancy gimmicks no fast paced platforming just a gauntlet of enemies that wants you dead
I was struggling so hard on slumbering sanctuary and the first time I got to the clock tower, traumatized by T H A T F O R S A K E N P L A C E it felt so rewarding, finally I had conquered the sanctuary! And now had THIS as my reward (then proceeded beat the game for the first time ~5-10 runs later XD)
Respect to the maker. When I play on both console and mobile, the soundtrack still has the same quality : Sounds badass even though I'm running like shit to escape those teleport ninjas, dual-sword mans that drop generades , and huge things that carry canons
This and Rayman Origins' OSTs from the world 'Moody Clouds' are both 'clockwork/cogwork' areas that have excellent musical pieces. I'm hyped to see how well the OST for Hollow Knight: Silksong is gonna be.
I love this part of the game. In your first run through here, the atmosphere is so immediately different. It's the first truly vertical level in progression as well, and of course the music hits you right away. Almost all other music in the game is background or ambiance, but this really takes center stage to hype you for the ascent up. It's the rising action of the run.
I clapped so many cheeks listening to this one, 3:23 was a moment i was running on the bridge and ive stoped to look at the view behind, i will always remember that moment, one of the best games ive ever played, and ive played all the big names on ps4 and more then 340 on ps4 alone, im happy to see so many more love this game and love the soundtrack, cheers!

"first successful run" is awfully optimistic
