Summary
Chronos Chamber is part one of the Chronos Quest. Basically it is an obby that is full of traps, puzzles, and Golumns guarding the main entrance. After this level is the Chronos Gate, which is where you can enter the portal to fight Chronos XI.
Background Story
After weeks of attempting to ignore their dreams of a gigantic, super powered clock, group discussion could not be avoided. Survivors everywhere came to conclude that a certain dream almost always precedes the former.
Here, they climb a giant tower. Some fail, some ... sort of succeed. Almost everyone attempts, though. They say that something's pulling them towards the top. They have to go there. They have to find out what's up there - and then they wake up.
Although it's definite that there's a link between this and Chronos XI, some people dispute this. Some say they have the Chronos dream without having this one, but they're usually just observing, sitting in the background.
Obstacles
Mobs: Golumn (Obstacle 2)
- Obstacle 1 - Button Code - Press 2 out of the 4 buttons to open the doors. The code is random. You must have the Pad Key to step on the buttons.
- Obstacle 2 - Golumn & Floating Blocks - Fight these Golumns. The Golumns may drop Clockbombs. Use the bombs to blow the wall. The golumns will continue to respawn until someone presses the button. The floating bricks are relatively simple, you just need to jump to the button to activate the main brick.
- Obstacle 3 - The Great Wall - Traverse the wall but be careful of moving blocks, although the ladders are fairly easy to traverse in first person. You may use the Karambit to climb the wall.

Summary
Chronos Gate a puzzle and a battle arena that comes after the Chronos Chamber obby. It's filled with pads needed to open the gate, and what the gate holds inside are three Stone Golumns which upon death drops Keys needed to open the portal to the dimension of Chronos XI.
Background Story
No one knows the origin of the Golumns, the gate, and what precedes it. They know the Golumns are guarding Chronos, but for what reason? Why was this gate created to further impede those attempting to reach the clock?
Most think that the Golumns built it as one last try. Maybe they thought that no one would understand it - but strangely enough, a sign, a hint, was there for everyone to see.
No one knows why it's there, but the survivors are sure thankful for it, because they need to get inside the gate, they need to find out what's inside there, they need to, they have to, or else something will go wrong. They know.
Design
A gate with XI on it. There are two columns beside it with red hands holding the columns. XI, in roman numerals, means 11. This could be related to Chronos XI. There look to be stairs/platforms leading up to it.
Inside is a nice hall with certain pillars and decorations with a Chronos XI statue at the end. There are three fork-shaped objects where the keys to go into the Chronos Dimension. Three chandeliers hang from the ceiling. Behind the survivors is a door.
Obstacles
Mobs: Stone Golumns, Golumns, and Wraiths (All Obstacle 5)
