Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I get up to the main floor from the cellar?
1 of 5: Notice that the main floor has some very large holes in it, allowing you to see up into it.
2 of 5: Maybe you could pile up some of the junk in the cellar to help you jump up to the main floor.
3 of 5: The infinite grenade crate has some wooden crates piled around it that you could use.
4 of 5: Another way is to take a barrel (either upright or overturned) and set it carefully on top of the grenade crate after moving or bashing all of the wooden crates.
5 of 5: Jump onto the grenade crate, then onto the barrel, then onto the blue machine imbedded in the wall to the right, and then onto the floor above.
