Level 1
Maui
The demigod of Polynesian legend, who fished islands up out of the sea with his magic hook. His face of the box shows a canoe, a fish, a seagull and a hook around his portrait.
Pandora's Box · 1999
The seven tricksters
Each level of Pandora's Box hunts down one trickster from the world's folklore. Between puzzles, the game told that trickster's most famous tale, one box piece at a time.
Level 2
Puck
The mischievous sprite of English folklore, and of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. The level retells the play's mischief: Oberon's magic flower, the sleeping Queen Titania, and Bottom, the actor whose head Puck turns into a donkey's.
Level 3
Eris
The Greek goddess of strife. Left off the gods' guest list, she took revenge with a gift: a golden apple that set Hera, Athena and Aphrodite quarrelling over which of them was the fairest.
Level 4
Coyote
The trickster of the North American Southwest, who never came by anything honestly if he could help it. His tale: a sack of "magic songs", a flock of geese who wanted to dance, and the one goose clever enough to open her eyes.
Level 5
Monkey
Born from a magic rock, he leapt through a waterfall to become king of the monkeys. Then he went down to the underworld and crossed every monkey's name off the List of the Dead.
Level 6
Anansi
The spider of West African folktales, who loved to eat and hated to share. His story pits him against Turtle, a dinner of sweet potatoes, and a meal at the bottom of a pond, where Anansi's own trick catches him out.
Level 7
Raven
The trickster of the Pacific Northwest, who sometimes played tricks for good. The first people lived in darkness while the Sky Chief kept the sun in a box. Raven turned himself into a pine needle, was born as the chief's grandson, and cried until he was given the box.
Each level fills one face of the box: four pieces from the story, then the trickster's own portrait as the fifth. Find all five, and the trickster's challenge opens.
