Ico Hints
How can I reach that exit?
1 of 6: Look at the wall where the staircase to the now-open idol doors is.
2 of 6: Try the left side of the wall, instead of the right side with the stairs.
3 of 6: There's an opening in the fence above the wall.
4 of 6: Push the box that you just pushed out a window all the way over to that opening.
5 of 6: You can't push it over the raised ground near the grates, so go around the edge of the courtyard, where the ground is flat.
6 of 6: From there, keep climbing, first up a chain and then up some stairs. You should then change back over to Yorda's screen.
