Ico Hints
I'm back outdoors now. What's next?
1 of 12: Not too much besides a lot of running, jumping, and climbing.
2 of 12: Take the path until it dead-ends into a point.
3 of 12: And notice that there's another similar point just in front of you as the camera's now pointing.
4 of 12: Run and jump your way over to the other side.
5 of 12: You'll need to jump up onto a ledge not too far past that.
6 of 12: When that one ends, drop down to the next.
7 of 12: After that next one ends, a ladder-like series of ledges should be below you.
8 of 12: Drop down those to a narrow platform at the bottom.
9 of 12: There's another platform just opposite the one you're standing on.
10 of 12: Jump across, then climb up to the ledge above you, if Ico didn't already catch it on the jump over.
11 of 12: After that, you should be above two very thick pipes.
12 of 12: Drop down to those and walk across to the exit. You should shortly reach the inside of a large stone tower.
