How to solve the Clock Puzzle in Inscryption

What time is it?

Inscryption is a dark deck building with a creepy and unsettling atmosphere. The player is trapped in a cabin and engages in card battles against their captor. The player can also get up from the table and explore the interior of the cabin. Inside they will find various objects they can interact with and in turn, many puzzles they can solve.

One of these objects is the cuckoo clock. The clock itself appears to be broken as the hands no longer move and show the time. But the player can interact with the cuckoo clock and turn the arms manually by using the three dials. They will need to turn the arms of the clock into the correct position to solve the two puzzles within the cuckoo clock.

The first puzzle is rather simple. Spin the arms until the clock shows 11:00. Once you do this, the top doors of the cuckoo clock will open up and reveal your reward. This is a gold ring. Its use isn't immediately obvious but it will become apparent later on in the game. For now, your character puts the ring on.

The second puzzle is more difficult. You will have to put the arms in exact positions for the bottom door to open. To see where these positions are, you will need to acquire the knife by solving the Caged Wolf puzzle.

Once you have the knife, use it to remove your eye during a card game. This will add weight to the scale. If you are victorious, you will have the ability to choose a new eye. You will want to select the glowing blue eye with the sigil on it.
