The Clock Tower is a location in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow.

Overview

The Clock Tower is first reached from the Floating Garden, and also contains paths to the Castle Corridor and Top Floor (opened from the other side). The clock tower consists of many vertical routes, with gears serving as moving platforms.

The boss of the region is Death. Upon his defeat, Soma will find Skula's soul in the next room, which endows him the Deep Seeker ability, allowing him to submerge and breathe underwater.

Notes

• The Save Room next to the spikes is an excellent way to use the Cash Back ability from the Mimic's soul. Each point of damage taken gives 5 Gold, and the spikes deals more damage the higher Soma's Maximum HP and DEF are and less damage the higher his CON is, so the player can dive into the spikes, take some damage, jump into the save room and heal. This can be repeated indefinitely. It's advised to save often between sessions though, as a mistake can end in a Game Over.
  • The Regeneration from Alura Une's soul can make the sessions longer, possibly indefinite if a Chaos Ring (in subsequent playthroughs) is equipped and Soma's Level isn't too high.
    • If Soma is taking too much or too little damage, check his equipment for options that change DEF and CON.

Connecting areas

• Top Floor - (via Northwest hallway. Initially blocked by a wall breakable from the Top Floor side.)
