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.
