Ico Hints
How I reach the exit in the next section after the windmill?
1 of 8: If you look straight up as you've just left the windmill, you should see a set of idol doors. That's the exit.
2 of 8: Ico can jump onto the chain and climb, but of course, it's never that easy for Yorda. So you're going to have to go on your own and look for a way to bring her around the long way.
3 of 8: Climb that chain and go down the stairs to the courtyard at the bottom. Look around and see what you can find.
4 of 8: Pay close attention to the grates in the middle of the courtyard.
5 of 8: One of them is open.
6 of 8: Go through it, and you'll be in an underground passage.
7 of 8: You can see Yorda on the other side of a gate down here.
