Ico Hints

I don't want to leave Yorda behind. How do I get her there?

1 of 5: Well, the wall between the base of this section and the grassy area is too high for Yorda to climb on her own.
2 of 5: But look around the grassy area for some help.
3 of 5:
There's a box sitting near the edge of the wall.
- Can you remind me how I got to that grassy area the first time?
4 of 5: Just push it over, and both of you can use that for a boost.
5 of 5: You can now climb the wall while standing on the box, but you'll need to pull Yorda up.
