Time is a mystery, here’s how to solve it.
Clocks always seem to be the hobby of madmen.
An obsession with time would be enough to make anyone crack.
Albert Maxwell, the grandfather inMadison, is no exception.
when you’ve got the clock key and can descend into the houses third(!?)
separate basement, youll find what he was up to in his final days.
But what could they mean?
Let us tell you.
Here’s how to solve the Madison clock puzzle.
Youve probably noticed the cuckoo clocks scattered around the house.
The clock key unlocks the clock door, obviously.
The notebook gives two instructions, 3 left.
If youve visited the bathroom at any point, youll probably remember a similar notebook.
Reading it, you get the message, …
Put these together and you have thecombination of a safe: 3 left, 12 right, 8 left.
This is used on the green safe in your grandfathers office.
Opening that, youll find a clock with two nubs on the back of it.
This means that you could take any cuckoo clock face, but only move one at a time.
That brings us back to the basement.
Observe the clocks and you may notice that all the faces on a particular wall are in sync.
Face the door on the other end and they all read 1:30.
The cuckoo clocks, on the other hand, will read something entirely different.
This requires a bit of backtracking, as none of those clock faces are in the room with you.
Youll then have to bring them one at a time back to the workshop to slot them.
Then you take the released clock face to the next one.
Thankfully, its not a very big house, but its still a lot of backtracking.
Put the corresponding clock faces in the correct spots, and the entire room will start going crazy.
The clock on the door will spin wildly, but the door is still locked.
Inside the closet is yet another clock.
This one hangs from a hook and you will need it for the puzzle in dads room.
When you finish this conundrum, you’ll be led directly into another: theconcrete block puzzle.
