Myst IV: Revelation Hints
Why doesn't the crate outside move when I try the winch?
1 of 3: There is a maximum amount of weight the winch can handle.
2 of 3: There are three cannonballs in the crate, that cannot be moved. In addition, there are four other cannonballs that can be moved in or out.
3 of 3: If there are four of the additional cannonballs in the crate, the winch won't lift it.
