Hooo boy. Used to play this until my eyes hurt back in the day. My whole family did, in fact – even my dad, whose gaming habits never went further than solitaire. I introduced my wife to it at some point, too, and I’m pretty sure she solved all 350+ puzzles.
I’ve been itching to replay it for a while now, and your write-up might just be the thing that pushes me over the edge.
This is one game I still reinstall and replay occasionally.
AndyHat how do hou make or work again in windows10? I havent player it for years because it didn’t work anymore. Still hoping for a similar game.
Right click – Properties – Compatibility tab – select windows 98 from the drop down menu and apply the changes.
The app should now play successfully on Windows 10 ☺️
Bought a new laptop, P/B will not load, so disappointing as it was my relaxation. Please fix my problem!!!
Is there a smartphone version of Pandoras Box Microsoft?
Hi Paula! I don’t believe Pandora’s Box was ever re-released after this version, but it seems like it’d be a good fit!
rae: Unfortunately I don’t think Pandora’s Box works natively in newer versions of Windows. I haven’t experimented, but it may work in either Windows 95 or 98 compatibility mode. The only sure-fire solution is to emulate the old Windows operating systems, which is complicated and may be more than you’re looking for. If you’re still interested and reading this, I can point you towards resources for doing this.
I wish we could somehow get Microsoft to re release this game. It has always been my favorite.
I wish they would re-release this game for current windows or as an app. I would so pay a good amount for this game. This is one of my faves that I have not been able to play in years. Someone should perhaps start a petition type thing and bring it to Microsoft’s attention. There are so many ppl out there that want this game playable.
Agree, would love to see a re-release of this game
I would love to have this game. So challenging!
It should be possible to find versions of the game on abandonware sites that run fine on recent systems. I have one that runs on Windows 10 no problem… but I downloaded it from Abandonware France and you can only play in French (I just reinstalled it to check).
That being said, the game would really benefit from an HD re-release. With an actual encyclopedia of the works/sites featured, and maybe even a puzzle editor ?
Also, fun fact: composer Nathan Grigg later switched to much more action-packed games, his most recent project being Mortal Kombat 1 of all things.
Would buy this game in .2 seconds if it became an app on an iPad or android. This game is iconic.
