Ico Hints
What comes after that second wheel?
1 of 8: Basically, just a few more timing puzzles involving moving parts.
2 of 8: You'll run into two gears spinning on their sides.
3 of 8: You need to jump from one to the next.
4 of 8: There's really not a whole lot here besides the timing. Do remember that you're moving with the wheel, so you'll need jump a bit before you approach the spot where the two gears touch.
5 of 8: Then, you'll have to jump onto a rolling cylinder.
6 of 8: Be careful that it doesn't roll you off the side, or you'll have to retrace most of your steps.
7 of 8: Besides that, though, there's no real trick -- mainly timing and coordination. You do have a bit of a "grace" -- if you start to reach the sides, Ico may be able to pull back up and climb onto the top of the cylinder to keep trying.
8 of 8: After that, you're done -- just follow the path away from all the parts and onto the next screen.
