Pandora’s Box puts a little spice in the mix, centered on the titular vessel. It seems that in addition to being the origin of all evil, the box (or jar, or oversized shoe box) was a convenient prison for some of mythology’s favorite malicious deities.

Description of Pandora's Box Windows
Tetris Slot machines for sale in california. creator Alexei Pajitnov's latest creation is a wonderful compilation of puzzles with jaw-dropping graphics and wonderful music culled from around the world.
Most puzzles are clever jigsaw variants made possible only with today's technology. It's also got a creative grand plot: seven Tricksters have escaped from the legendary Pandora's box of Greek mythology, and it's up to you to travel to various cities to find and capture them before they wreck havoc in the world. Although most puzzles are simply jigsaw variations, the great graphics and educational value (learning about various world myths has never been more fun) will keep Pajitnov fans happy.
Pandora's Box is not his most creative work by any means, but it's not just a superficial collection of pretty pictures either.

I have the exact same problem as Junebug. The game's working perfectly, but in Honolulu where the outer layer puzzles start showing up, I'm stuck.
The puzzle is missing all pieces from the left, the object itself is black where the pieces are missing, and whenever I click anywhere where the cursor has a Design+ next to it, the game crashes.
I've tried reinstalling, but not working still.
I have not found any forums or pages on the web, which could have a solution, so if anyone manages to solve it please help!
Thanks

I have downloaded the Virtual Clone Drive and the Magic ISO. When I go to install the game it says media authentication failed and exits set up. How do I get it to finish downloading? I played this years ago on XP and it was fantastic. I want to be able to play Pandoras Box again. Thank you.

this was incredibly easy to get this game to work, i got the ISO version and just slapped the mdf into a mdf to iso converter, and the game ran perfectly, except for the cut scenes. when a cut scene starts the audio works just fine, but none of the visuals load, only showing a black box. is there any way i can fix this, or is this a known issue?
Brig2020-08-160 point
I followed Aiko's advice and installed the ISO file, after using a free MDF to ISO app, and then VirtualClone Drive to run and yet still sometimes when I run the program it said it needed the CD. What I do then is run the ISO file again via a desktop shortcut and choose play and it works fine. Would be nice if I could just use the program shortcut but this works at least ;)

Hi, everything i try to download this game onto my asus laptop with windows it never works. How do i do this please i have been trying for ages with no joy.
Aiko2020-04-2811 points
So I was really struggling to make this work, and it finally worked and I feel so happy! Slingo online, free. So here's how I did it:
Problem: It kept saying a disk needed to be inserted.
I downloaded the English ISO file download (includes .mdf and .mds files).
I used a program called Magic ISO (search online, free download) to convert the .mdf into .iso file.
I used another program Virtual CloneDrive (also free download) to mount the converted ISO file, then it acts as if there is a CD and I run the CD and I can install and play the game!
Look up guides if you can't figure out how to use the above programs to do those steps.
I did this after a lot of experimentation and Googling and fiddling around. I really hope this helps someone as I wish a solution had been posted when I was trying. Enjoy~

For ' WARNING: DirectX Setup failed..' and 'Media Authentication Failed, quitting setup' errors, you have to set the compatibility mode for the installer to Windows XP, and later on the game exe itself.
If you're installing on 64bit Windows, for NOCD patch to work you have to edit the registry ini like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWOW6432NodeMicrosoftMicrosoft GamesPandora's Box1.0]
'CDROMDIR'='.'

Hi, my problem is that just as it's finishing installing, it automatically uninstalls. What do?
Gamez2020-02-012 points
I was able to download it by first downloading the Registry Fix and the Patch, and then The full game. I forget if I downloaded ISO or the Full Rip Version. Probably the ISO because everything is in French which can make it hard to know what buttons you're clicking on, but once you get started its pretty easy.
gavroskylo2020-01-15-1 point
load the ISO (https://www.myabandonware.com/game/pandora-s-box-dbx#download) with Alcohol120 or daemon tools. Install. Apply the patch and play

Hey, Clyde, Gamefix is blocked by my ISP. Would you mind uploading it on Megaupload or any other website? I really miss this game and can't find my damn CD anywhere, must have been lost when I moved years ago.

It needs a NOCD Crack. Go to gamefix to obtain it. Gamecopyworld and megagames have lousy non-working cracks!

It’s difficult to imagine what the world would look like had the Pandora decided against opening the box packed with all kinds of evils. While many fingers point at her as the only culprit for releasing sickness, greed, pain, envy and even war and death upon the world, it is conveniently forgotten that Prometheus was the goody-goody who started the avalanche of doom in the first place, by deliberately disobeying Zeus’s direct orders and presenting human race with fire, even after Zeus specifically asked him not to.
Punishing insubordinate Prometheus was not enough and Zeus arranged a marriage between Prometheus’s brother and Pandora, giving her the infamous box as the wedding present. In Pandora’s Box slot, NetEnt is capturing the very moment when Pandora is slyly opening the box, without suspecting the upcoming catastrophe. Apart from the featuring character - Pandora herself - the slot includes Zeus as the wild and the Helmet, Vase, Harp, Shield, Grapes, and Olives as they higher level icons.
The slot is played on 20 adjustable paylines, with 4 betting levels and the coin size that ranges from $0.01 to $1.00. Clicking on the Max Bet button will unlock all 20 paylines and wager 4 coins per line. The actual coin value will remain unchanged until the player sets the coins size manually.
Auto Play icon can be located in the left bottom corner and the player can use the feature to activate up to 1000 auto spins which can be stopped manually or by setting up the parameters that will halt the auto mode – these could be either Free Spins or a specified cash amount won/lost. The return to player percentage is on a lower side - which can be regarded as one of the world’s many evils – and the extended gameplay is expected to return around 95%.
Pandora’s Box bonus rounds and special features
Pandora’s Box slot has two Wilds, regular and golden. The Golden Zeus Wild appears on the centre reel, while the standard Wild can land anywhere on the reels. Both of the icons can replace all other slot symbols except for the Pandora Scatter.
Scatter symbol is the bet multiplier and the combination of 5 Pandora icons will increase the bet by x500. At least three Scatter icons will trigger 10 Free Spins while a combination of 4 and 5 Scatters will double or triple the number of extra spins.
If the return to player percentage is an important factor for you, then Pandora’s Box will not make your final cut, as 95% RTP is not at all that impressive.
Unfortunately, the poor payouts are not compensated by challenging bonus features and NetEnt decided that Free Spins are a sufficient reward for your effort – the silver lining is that all winnings generated during the bonus spins are multiplied by 3. The blow of disappointment of slightly soften by introducing the additional Wild, but we are sure that a lot of players would rather see an extra bonus feature or a higher RTP rate. The design of the slot is also far from impressive, although this is hardly an aggravating circumstance since Pandora’s Box was released back in 2009.
Pandora’s Box is definitely not a memorable slot but fortunately, NetEnt is a software developer that’s strong enough to afford a few failures along the way. While there are a few shiny moments throughout the game, such as Free Spins multipliers and the extra Wild icon, the end result is too weak to make a lasting impression.
A Classic Internet Slot, Not Yet in Vegas
This game is at first sight, a classic 5 reel game, but it does have a good feel to it and is actually very playable. You won't see it in Vegas yet, but these games have been suggested as being candidates for real money casinos soon.
The thing about Pandora's Box slots that is really cool, is that the free spins (you get 10 of them) pays at 3X normal pay rates. So, it is equivalent to 45 spins in total, but you get the adrenalin that comes with the possibility of much bigger wins. Well, three times bigger to be accurate!
In addition, the bonus game is very similar in concept to a lot of the Novomatic games that you would find in UK casinos right now. So if you like Novomatic, then this could be a good one for you.
