Navigating the sprawling levels of Dead Cells often requires players to solve hidden puzzles to claim rare blueprints and weapons. In the Clock Tower stage, one of the most intriguing secrets involves obtaining the Bell Tower Key. Finding this key is essential for players seeking to unlock the locked door that conceals the Punishment shield blueprint. Following daily gaming news can keep players informed about updates and secret puzzle mechanics across popular roguelite titles.
Locating the Four Bells in the Clock Tower
To acquire the Bell Tower Key, you must first locate four large bells scattered across the Clock Tower map. These bells are distributed randomly throughout the vertical towers during each run. Thoroughly clearing each tower of enemies ensures you can interact with the bells without interruption.
Ringing the Bells in Pitch Order
Unlocking the key requires striking all four bells in order from the lowest pitch to the highest pitch. Each bell produces a distinct tone when hit with a weapon. If you ring them out of order, you must restart the sequence by striking the lowest-pitched bell again. Listening carefully or using visual sound wave cues helps confirm the correct sequence.
Claiming the Bell Tower Key and Blueprint
Once the fourth and highest-pitched bell is hit in the proper sequence, the Bell Tower Key will drop directly from it. Pick up the key and carry it toward the upper locked room within the Clock Tower. Using the key opens the locked door, allowing you to collect the Punishment shield blueprint for your permanent inventory.
