'''The Curious Factory''' is the first level of the [[Ruby Passage]] from the [[Game Boy Advance]] game ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. It is a labyrinth of a factory with robot-like enemies and many machines called [[Compressor]]s and [[Decompressor]]s, which turn [[Wario]] into [[Flat Wario]] and back again. Most of the flooring and platforms in the level is made up of conveyor belts. The enemy [[Kaentsubo]] first appears in this level. The Kaentsubo's heads are on fire, and when they get close to Wario, he will transform into [[Flaming Wario]] and will be able to break [[Bonfire Block]]s. Hitting the [[Frog Switch]] will open up the underground area of the level, which is more challenging than the upper level.
