[Slim-Jims]

I enter the clock tower, i kill the 3 dudes,use slo mo to get up to the rope,swing over kill the red dudes. Go left open art chest kill the blow up dogs, come back then go right,it gives you a cut scene,run through the 2 wind mills go across poles turn leaver go up ramp, wall run, jump back forth up wall, go get art chest , come back stab the big dude in the head, then go left get art chest, cant go any where cause you cant reach the rope on the right and you cant get to the shelf above your head on the left so you go back, then go right nock monster off wall, wall run to rope go through water mill jump up and get the leaver which opens door,run through water mill a bit further swing on bars to get to the door you opened with leaver,kill the 2 dudes. Now if i go in this door it takes me to a portal that i have now activated and got a power. I cant come back into the clock tower now because of a spinning wheel with spikes in the past and in the present.I didnt turn the tower switch yet cause i havent found it.

If the spinning wheel with spikes you're talking about is the trap just outside the portal room in the present, then you can just wall run over it.

Theres a spinnin wheel with spikes in the past and the present outside of the portal thst i csnt get bye, i tried and tried but i keep diing. Am i missing a switch to turn water tower off/on? Or do i go through all that i said above to get in the door to the portal.

I am thinking that your at the spot where there is a low spinner thing that is sideways and you cannot get past?

If that is the case, you have to use the (smash me into the wall thingee). You will notice that once it hits the wall it stays a little longer then most. climb on it and then wall run past the thing.

[FireEmpress]

you are supposed to go through that sand portal that you came across. Activate it and go through it.

I think it is too late go give any more advice to Slim-Jims - who would either have finished the game or given up by now. Time to lock this post ?

coming back from the portal is not too bad. my problem is trying to get further. i slide down the red drape onto the small platform. tried jumping onto the broken wheel just to the right. he doesn't stay on. am i going in the wrong direction? i must be missing something.

Run through spoked wheels. Do not "ride" them.

1)a.
I am having the same exact problem as slim-Jims. (refer to his problem - he explains it perfectly) After stabing the huge troll in the head, you have two choices. If I go left I cannot reach the rope to the right. So I backtrack and go right, where you get past all the traps and eventually get to the portal. Before going through the portal (still in past) I tried to work backwards through the traps. There is a low spinning spiked wheel. I found by standing right before the spiked wheel, you can wall jump back and forth - on each succesive jump use your left thumbstick and press in the direction to get over the spiked wheel. It takes several wall jumps, but eventually you do move down the wall. When you think your far enough just stop and you'll be past.

b. After I got back through all the traps in the present and backtrack all the way past the water mill I end up in the the ledge with water where you can score a quick drink. There is that creature on the wall waiting right by the rope, but there is no way to get to the rope when your trying to backtrack, because the ledge with water I'm standing in is perpendicular to the wall with the rope. SO I CANT GO BACK AND NEED TO TURN AROUND AND GO BACK TO THE PORTAL TO ENTER THE PRESENT.

2.) Now in the PRESENT, I exit the portal and try to go back through all the traps when I am again confused how to get over the low spinning spiked wheel. In the past, the wall jumps worked. But, in the present the walls are spread further apart, so the wall jumps do not work. You can not simply wall run over, it's just not high enough.

Someone please help Slim-Jims and I get past these dillemas so I'm not tempted to strangle anyone:-) Serioulsy need help!
