Ico Hints
How do I open that door?
1 of 7: You're going to have to reach it from the other side.
2 of 7: Look for another path through this room.
3 of 7: There's a ladder on the wall opposite the door. Climb it.
4 of 7: The pipes at the top of the room will help you find another exit outside.
5 of 7: Just jump onto one the pipes near the ladder, "walk" your way across the room, and keep going until you're at a window with a ladder heading back down.
6 of 7: Look around once you're back on the ground -- the switch is within reach.
7 of 7: It's "hidden" behind the stairs leading down from the door. Walk around the stairs and you should see it.
