'''Tick Tock Clock''' is the fourteenth course in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. To access the course, the player needs to open the [[Star Door]] on the third floor with 50 [[Power Star]]s. The entrance to Tick Tock Clock is the face of the large grandfather clock. Based on when the player jumps into the clock (rounded to the nearest quarter hour), the speeds of the internal clockworks change: Entering when the minute hand is nearest "12" will make everything stop, entering near "3" will make everything move slowly, entering near "6" will make everything move randomly and change speeds frequently, and entering near "9" will make everything move quickly. If time isn't still, several platforms will turn, move, or flip, conveyor belts will move, and pendulums and the large hands will swing.  

In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', there is a [[Tick-Tock Clock (race course)|race track]] based on Tick Tock Clock.

The player starts at the base of the clock's mechanics. In the DS version, there is additional ground around the base of the clock and [[Bob-omb]]s will fall and attack the player in this area. To the left are several green, ascending platforms that spin if time isn't still along with a [[Spinning Heart]] below them. In front of the player's starting position is a large pendulum followed by a conveyor belt and a rotating block. Afterward is another pendulum followed by a ramp leading to three rotating blocks. Above those is a platform the earlier green platforms will lead to that has a large clock hand swinging around nearby. After the hand are a number of spinning platforms leading to a [[Luigi in the Cage|caged]] [[Power Star]]. After the cage is a small lift followed by a pole with an [[Amp]] circling it. Climbing up the pole, the path will split: to the left is a [[Heave-Ho]] and the second mission of the course, and to the right are lifts leading further up the clock. Above the lifts are rotating blocks leading upward, and a mesh floor with [[Timed Jumps on Moving Bars|moving bars]]. Up the rotating blocks is a bending platform with blocks acting similar to [[Bomp]]s placed under a cage. In the cage is a [[? Block]] full of [[Coin]]s. Afterward a couple of conveyor belts leading to a long, bending platform with several platforms and blocks breaking it up and a large platform in the middle. At the top of the platform is another clock hand that can bring the player to an area with a [[Thwomp]] that can carry the player to a [[Stomp on the Thwomp|Power Star]].

*Tick Tock Clock appears to be changed more than any other level in the DS remake, with many areas altered for easier difficulty, removing elements such as the triangular blocks & fog effects, and re-positioning several areas of the level.

*The ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' minigame, [[Tick Tock Hop]], takes place on the clock's painting from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.

*This is one of two courses with both a [[Star Switch|Switch Star]] and [[Silver Star]]. The other is [[Shifting Sand Land]].

*In the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack in ''[[Minecraft]]'', there is a painting of the entrance to Tick Tock Clock.
