Ico Hints
So how can Ico get through the door?
1 of 5: Maybe you could find something to fill in for Ico's half of the weight.
2 of 5: There's a box in between the pair of stairs closest to the door, along the wall on this level of the graveyard. Drag it over to one of the pressure plates.
3 of 5: You'll then need to hold Yorda's hand and walk her over to the other plate. This should now open the door.
4 of 5: As long as someone's still standing on the plate, that is.
5 of 5: So let go of Yorda's hand to make sure she doesn't move and walk through the now open door. (You may need to try several times before Yorda will stay put.)
