| | Music Boxes also have a large role in ''[[Wario Land 3]]''. In fact, this game is set within [[Music Box World|an enigmatic Music Box with an entire world inside of it]] and focuses on the collection of five different Music Boxes, which, if all played, can free [[Rudy|a hidden figure]] who, claiming to be the Music Box World's unjustly accursed leader, helps Wario through his quest. Wario, in the end, collects the five Music Boxes scattered around the larger one and frees the figure, only to discover that he is evil; Wario then defeats him and saves the Music Box, which he is permitted to leave. Wario later claims the Music Box World as his own, as evidenced by its cameo in his house in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]''. |
