Journey to the Center of the Earth Hints
How can I remove the crystal?
1 of 7: The crystal is embedded into the rock. You'll need more than your bare hands to remove it.
2 of 7: You're in a mining camp. There ought to be some mining tools here somewhere.
3 of 7: There are several wooden crates on the floor of the mine east of the beach. One of them contains an old chisel.
4 of 7: The handle of the chisel is broken, though, so find a replacement.
5 of 7: Mining is hard work. It's really rough on your hands!
6 of 7: Protect your hands with something you already have.
7 of 7: Point to the gloves in inventory and "wear" them. Then, while in the close-up view of the crystal atop the ladder, select the chisel/wood combination tool and click them on the crystal.
