The music box is the setting of the game Wario Land 3. While it appears to be an ordinary instrument, it contains an entire world inside of it. The world consists of an island divided into four sections: North (the game starts here), South, East, and West. Wario is transported here in the start of the game after being engulfed in a flash of light coming from the music box. Inside, he is greeted by a hidden figure who claimed to have once been the world's god. According to this figure, a wicked spell was placed upon him that had sealed him within the room they conversed in. The power used to seal him away was contained in five small music boxes; as such, collecting these music boxes could allow the figure to escape his curse and free the world. Though Wario seemed initially uninterested in the figure's request to lift the spell over him, his mind was changed when he was told that he could keep any treasure he found on his way and would be brought back to his own world in the end. Wario eventually collected the music boxes and assisted the figure, but a terrible truth was revealed to him as he did so: the hidden figure was actually an evil being who had previously put a curse on all the world's native inhabitants, turning them into the monsters Wario had faced on his quest. He and Wario eventually face off in a fight, which Wario ultimately won. Afterward, his curse over the people of the music box was lifted, and Wario could exit the music box and keep all the spoils he had earned during his journey.
These are the four areas of the music box:
N: The game starts here, and it includes The Temple (the place where a hidden figure is imprisoned), Out of the Woods, The Peaceful Village, The Vast Plain, Bank of the Wild River, The Tidal Coast, and Sea Turtle Rocks.
W: This section includes Desert Ruins, The Volcano's Base, The West Crater, The Pool of Rain, Beneath the Waves, and A Town in Chaos.
S: This section includes The Grasslands, The Big Bridge, Tower of Revival, Cave of Flames, The Steep Canyon, and Above the Clouds.
E: This section includes The Stagnant Swamp, The Frigid Sea, Castle of Illusions, The East Crater, The Colossal Hole, Forest of Fear, and The Warped Void.
