Ico Hints
How do I get to the top of that tower?
1 of 4: If you walk along the path, you should notice a ladder that starts to go down to the base of the tower but that's twisted and broken off at the end.
2 of 4: That's still good enough to get you down to the base of the tower.
3 of 4: Just climb down the ladder as far as you can go and then jump off -- Ico will automatically flip and land where you want him.
4 of 4: Then, keep climbing the ledges on the tower until you're at the top and can reach the chain.
