The Clockworks is the elaborate machine that is found inside Cradle. It is responsible for moving levels around inside each gate, as well as constructing gates and dungeons when minerals are put inside dormant gates before they open.
The Clockworks is broken up into 3 tiers whose boundaries are represented by the subtowns. These Clockworks tiers represent the different zones of difficulty and monster strength in the world of Cradle. Access to the various tiers is granted by the Spiral Warden when a knight has the correct level of equipment and number of tokens. Any knight can explore a tier that has not been unlocked yet by being invited to join a party started by a knight with access.
