When a character enters a factory or, more often, a Clock Tower, it usually results in the character riding on the moving gears and other machines to get through it. May overlap with Clock Punk and Eternal Engine. May also be related to No OSHA Compliance if it involves workers riding around on the gears. See Ground by Gears for a lethal hazard of the area. |

In Back to the Future, Doc strings the cable from the clock tower to power the DeLorean at 1.21 gigawatts. Unfortunately, the storm brought down a tree limb, making the cable too short. When he tugged on it, the end at the clock face became unhooked. He climbs through the clock's gears to get to the door on the face so Marty can feed him the cable to re-hook it. | |

Mario Party 6: One of the mini-games is "Cog Jog", where two players have to travel across spinning gears to get to the goal within the time limit. Falling off sends the player back to start, and the Thwomp in the middle changes the direction of the gears. Clockwork Castle, the sixth and final board of the game mixes this with Big Fancy Castle. By Day, Donkey Kong walks around the board, and by Night, Bowser walks around it. The goal is to chase Donkey Kong down so you can collect stars from him, but avoid Bowser, lest he take your stars away. One of the gimmicks of the board is that you can find a switch that changes the gameplay from Day to Night or vice-versa. |

The Elder Scrolls series has the Clockwork City, built and resided in by the Dunmeri (Dark Elven Physical God, Sotha Sil. It is a city combining Steampunk and Magitek technology, with plenty of giant moving gears, cogs, and domes. It is visited in both Morrowind's Tribunal expansion as well as The Elder Scrolls Online's eponymous Clockwork City expansion, the latter of which reveals the city to be, in fact, a giant computer to which Sotha Sil himself is cybernetically linked. | |

The entirety of Dr. Wily's Gear Fortress from Mega Man 11. Inspired by his Double Gear system, Wily went a little overboard with the gear motif featured throughout the fortress. It's to the point that a number of the gears are likely there for decorative purposes only. For example, while gears can be seen spinning in the background for most of the Robot Masters' rooms in Stage 3, the gears in the rooms of Blast Man and Tundra Man are destroyed and frozen in place respectively. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Scrap Brain Zone from the original Sonic the Hedgehog game. Its Working Title was even "The Clockwork Zone" (or "Clock Ork" as the W wasn't programmed into the title card). In Sonic Adventure, Amy and E-102 Gamma's sections of Hot Shelter involve them moving across spinning gears in the engine room. There are even switches that change the directions of the gears. Sonic Unleashed features Rooftop Run, which has a clock tower, but only the night stage has a major clockworks area, as the daytime stage is outside. This level returned in Sonic Generations, and both Sonics go up the outside of the tower this time. Team Sonic Racing has Clockwork Pyramid, which mixes this trope with Build Like an Egyptian. |

The Disney animated short The Clock Cleaners, with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck and Goofy, has them doing this job (interior and exterior cleaning) at a clock tower. Hilarity ensues inevitably.note Bonus is that this classic 1930s short was included before theatrical showings of The Great Mouse Detective in 1986, and is included as a bonus with its DVD/Blu-rays. | |
