Stuck at the clock problem

[Einar]

Hi guys all is in the title if you want help with other stuff ask me I already finish the game (in fact I tried all possibilities for the clock but I want to know the way to find it thank you

At what difficulty did you play the game and what was your solution?
I`m stuck at the same point T_T

[Einar]

Find the solution you need to note what animals are named in a book you pick up I don't remember the color and use the numbers for it

I'm still searching for this one as well, I've literally looked everywhere in the mansion...
I already did the statues thing after the axe, and have 4 of the porcelain blocks. I have no other leads at the moment.

Usou o machado para abrir a passagem?

So, I've run through the game twice now, and on both occasions, the answer to the clock puzzle always corresponded to the numbers next to the crab and lobster on the painting in the hallway outside .
Could just be chance, could be the answer. Dont forget to flip the hour and minute hands around if it doesnt work the first time.

Yes, I said I already did the statues thing.

Also, it'd be best if you write stuff in english so everyone can read. :)

I tried this: when you leave the room, there is a board on the wall with different sea-creatures
Some are similar to each other but not the same
For example the lobster and the crab
I used the numbers of these two for the clock and it worked
I fear i can't describe it any better
I guess depending on your difficulty level it differs

Yes that's the solution, but I still haven't found someone who knows why it's the crab and the lobster haha.

I tired crab/lobster repeatedly to no avail. The solution for me was crab and wormy-type thing.

Seemingly in another thread the dev mentioned that the books have nothing to do with the puzzle and it's all down to examining the portrait carefully. Are two numerals supposed to look different than the others? I don't know.

I brute forced it and went back to the portrait once i discovered the answer. Absolutely no difference to any of the numerals whatsoever.

So the only advice i can give, sorry to say, is brute force it.

If you check the numbers, you'll realize there's two of them that aren't in their correct place.
For example, you may see it like this:
I II IX IV
V VI VII VIII
III X XI XII
In this case, III and IX would be the answer.

Sorry to necropost. For those still wondering the way you have to do this is by:

Looking at the numbers on the picture. They should go from 1 (I) -> 12 (XII) with roman numbers.

Two of them have been swapped, look for them and then use them to resolve the problem.

Here is an image to help [i.imgur.com]

I know its not really visible at first so I hope it helps.
