-----------------------------------------------------------
This is a walkthrough for the game called "Tiger Eye: Curse
of the Riddle Box". It is the first of two games. To

GameFAQs.
002. Video Walkthrough
-----------------------------------------------------------
Do you want to see a video of how to beat the game, rather
than read how to do it? You're in luck! I made a video
walkthrough for this game, which can be found here:

003. Walkthrough
-----------------------------------------------------------
003a. Level 1
-----------------------------------------------------------
The game starts off in a market area. Your first task is to
find all the ten metallic weapons, on this screen. Then,
you want to pick up the key (at the bottom of a pillar on
the right) and use the key on the wardrobe on the left.
This unlocks a simple puzzle. The goal of the puzzle is to
put all the weapons in the wardrobe, in the correct spots.
For example, the circular weapon goes in the upper/right
location, because that is the proper spot for it. Four of
the weapons will not be used.
Solving the puzzle gets you a stone flute.
You want to find five statuettes and place them on the
music chest on the right. This gets you sheet music. Use
the sheet music on the stand in the lower/left for a music
puzzle. Your goal is to play the seven musical notes,
according to the diagram. If you get a correct note, it
turns green.
003b. Level 2
-----------------------------------------------------------
Your first puzzle here is to find all fifteen puzzle
pieces. They look similar to tetris blocks. Once that is
done, examine the box on the right for a series of puzzles.
The first puzzle is simple. Swap the pieces on the bottom,
so they resemble the pieces on the top. From left to right,
you want the pieces to be green, blue, yellow, purple, red
and pink. Solving the puzzle gets you five more puzzle
pieces.
When you've got all the puzzle pieces, look at the jewelry
box. This gives you a jigsaw puzzle, where you make five
different pictures. It does not matter where you make the
pictures.
Once that is done, you want to rearrange the pictures in
the proper, chronological order. The order is blue, red,
purple, orange and green. This gives you the mysterious
riddle box that the game is named after.
003c. Level 3
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have a metal-reading challenge. This is a chain puzzle!
Make chains of three or more, to destroy the background.
When you destroy enough background pieces, the puzzle is
over.
You end up in an alleyway. Dela needs to find money and
repair a man's bike, so she can get out of here. Two
bundles of money are on the ground. To get more money, use
the broom on the lantern. To get more money, use the
crowbar on the grate. To get the last thing of money, solve
the chicken cage puzzle by putting all six pieces on the
board.
Next, your puzzle is to find all the bicycle parts and use
them on the bicycle. Four of the parts can be found without
any work. One part--the chain--requires you to solve a
chain puzzle. Simply move the pieces around so the chain
pieces form a complete loop. The blank space is in the
upper/left.
The final bicycle part is the wheel, which is against the
door. Use the tire on the wheel, then use the pump on the
wheel. When the wheel is fixed, use it on the bike.
003d. Level 4
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have a puzzle, where you must place neuron pieces on
the board. Your goal is to make a chain from start to
finish. Neurons of the same color must be placed in
adjacent tiles. For example, the smallest piece goes above
the ending piece on the right. See how a line connects the
two neurons of the same color? Make a full chain to solve
the puzzle. There are multiple solutions.
There is a bonus round at this point. Find identical
objects before the timer runs out! You get hints for doing
this successfully.
Dela goes to her room at this point. You want to find nine
packages in this room, then solve a puzzle on the bed. This
is a simple word puzzle. You want to put words in to form
compound words.

Cast off
Off hand

When you solve the puzzle, you get a letter from Max. Read
it, and solve another puzzle on the bed. With this puzzle,
you want to put the items in the order described. This is
the order:
Tweezers, vacuum, spray can, brush, oil, metal cleaner,
tissue, glue
You can now solve a series of three puzzles, on the riddle
box. The puzzle is the same thing each time: rotate the
various circles, so the pattern matches throughout. When
you solve the puzzle, the riddle box opens.
003e. Level 5
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have the metal-reading challenge again, then you have
things to do inside the bathroom. You want to collect six
bath products in green; they are things like soap and
shampoo. You want to find two knobs and use them on the
sink on the right; you want to find two shower handles and
use them on the shower on the left.
When you find nine pipes, it unlocks a puzzle in the
shower. The first part of the puzzle is to put the pipe
pieces on the right side of the screen, so they form a
complete line. You can rotate pieces by clicking on them.
Solving the puzzle gives you a tile puzzle. It's a jigsaw
puzzle; just put all the tiles into place to cover up the
hole. When you get a piece in the right spot, it snaps into
place and cannot be moved.
The level ends, with a puzzle on the riddle box. You want
to swap letters to form a full sentence. Note that some
letters cannot be moved. The sentence is "to command the
man, use these words: thou shalt".
003f. Level 6
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have a bonus round, followed by another neuron puzzle.
Only one piece can connect to the lower/left green spot, so
start with that one.
Dela returns to her room. You have thirteen throwing
weapons to find here. Then, you want to find three bombs.
To unlock the bomb on the plant, use acetone on it. This
gives you a words challenge. You want to use the letters
given, in order to spell out two three-letter words, two
four-letter words, a five-letter word and a six-letter
word. There are multiple solutions, and you have to solve
this puzzle three times.
To unlock the bomb in the chest, use a key. This gives you
a numbers challenge. Each picture represents a number. The
unicorn is one, the cherries are 2, the eggs are 6, and so
on. Starting from the upper left, the pictures are 2 9 4 5
7 1 6 3 8. Use those to press out the number sequence at
the bottom of the screen.
To unlock the bomb on the wall carving, use a screwdriver.
This gives you a tangrams puzzle. Three times in a row, you
are challenge to put all the various shapes into the black
spots. Your goal is to cover the black spots completely.
003g. Level 7
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have the metal-reading challenge again.
Take the key from the wall carving and use it to open your
journal. This gives you a red item. You can use it on the
luggage for a puzzle. The puzzle is to press the numbers in
the correct order, as indicated by the red item. The
numbers are 61289.
Opening the luggage gets you a package from Roland. It
explodes, and you have to find all the parts. There are 18
metal capsules and 6 coins. You must find them, before you
can solve the puzzles on the two packages (on your bed).
The coins puzzle requires you to put six coins on the
screen. Starting from the far left, and going clockwise,
the coins are for Dean, Max, Blue, Roland, Artur and Adam.
Solving this puzzle unlocks two more puzzles.
One puzzle is a letter scramble, which you've seen before.
Move letters around to spell out "here is the phone number
you should call". The other puzzle is a jigsaw puzzle,
where the pieces snap into place.
Solving these two puzzles unlocks two MORE puzzles. One is
a jigsaw puzzle, and the other is another letter puzzle.
This time, the message is "some more numbers you are going
to need".
The capsules puzzle wants you to match words together, to
make compound words. You've seen a puzzle like this before.

Wild cat
Tail spin
End game
Fire fly

Snap snot

Ginger root
Solve all of the puzzles to finish the level.
003h. Level 8
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have the metal-reading challenge again, and then you
visit a new location! In this location, you need to find
nine pieces of extra-large clothes (items with a red tag),
five light bulbs and sixteen invoice pieces.
When you get the invoice puzzle done, it gives you a jigsaw
puzzle. Solving this gives you a puzzle, where you must
move tags around so the prices and colors don't repeat.
B99 R 9 G999
R999 G99 B9
G9 B999 R99
Solving this puzzle lets you find seven more pieces of
clothing.
To open the register, you need to use the screwdriver and
grease in this screen. This gives you a simple puzzle,
where you must click on pieces to rotate them. You want all
the wires to connect to each other.
Solving all these puzzle gives you the final puzzle of the
level. It's a clothing puzzle! Put the clothing onto Hari,
while following all the various rules at the bottom of the
screen.
003i. Level 9
-----------------------------------------------------------
Do the neuron puzzle again, and you get a bonus round.
Dela goes to a restaurant. You want to find sixteen fruits
and vegetables, as well as nine cooking tools. When you do
this, you get a care package.
There are three packages here, and each one is protected by
a puzzle. The puzzle on the left has you spell out the
names of four fruits: starfruit, pineapple, tangerine and
nectarine.
The lower/right puzzle has you trace lines on the board.
Press buttons to indicate the direction you want to go. You
cannot retrace any lines. The puzzle is solved when all
lines are lit up. You must do this three times.
The final puzzle is a word challenge. You want to write
four words that are synonyms for "voyage". These are trip,
sail, trek and tour.
003j. Level 10
-----------------------------------------------------------
There are two puzzles you can solve here, at the very
start. The left one is a tile puzzle. Put the tiles into
the proper order. Starting from the upper/left, the order
is dragon, bird, airplane, unicorn, dog, bicycle, water
monster, goldfish, and ship.
The right puzzle is a dominoes puzzle. Put all the dominoes
in place, so each piece is touching a piece of the same
number. One piece is already in place.
The children here force you to find twelve toys for them,
in addition to ten tiles and five matchsticks. Finding the
matchsticks unlocks a matchstick puzzle. With this puzzle,
your goal is to remove matchsticks in order to form
squares. The squares will always be separate; that is, they
don't overlap, beyond having touching corners. You must do
this puzzle three times.
003k. Level 11
-----------------------------------------------------------
There is a tile puzzle near the door. The goal of the
puzzle is to put all the pieces down, to match the picture.
Put them down in this order: green, red, blue, yellow,
pink, gray, purple and orange.
You must find fourteen faces here. Click them all, and the
man gives you tiles. Use the tiles on the door for a jigsaw
puzzle. This is followed by a tile puzzle. Select the five
tiles which, when put together, spell out the woman's name.
Two make up the last name, three make up the first name.
003l. Level 12
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have a neuron puzzle, and you go back to the alleyway.
There are three puzzles here. The left puzzle is a
crossword puzzle, where you write out these words: river,
rocks, crane, sky and tree.
The middle puzzle is a tumbler puzzle. Click on tumblers to
rotate them. Your goal is to get all the tumblers to be at
one.
The right puzzle is a tile puzzle. Put the tiles on the
board, so adjacent tiles have matching characters on the
touching edges.
You also need to collect 11 car parts and 6 eggs to pass
the level.
003m. Level 13
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have a bonus round, the last of the game. Then, you
return to the hotel room. Right off the bat, you can do a
password puzzle. Figure out five words that deal with
corpse. They are death, bones, grave, flesh and decay.
There is a puzzle in the upper/left. This is another
rotation puzzle. Rotate the various circles to form a
complete picture. You must do this three times.
You want to find twelve pieces of paper. This unlocks a
puzzle on the ground. It's a simple jigsaw puzzle; put the
pieces together to form the picture. The picture is mostly
made up of symbols. It leads directly into another puzzle,
where you must switch letters to spell out a message. The
message is "I need you to perform the following tasks. See
attachment."
003n. Level 14
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have the metal-reading puzzle for the final time,
before revisiting the restaurant.
You want to use the sharp knife on the bench to free the
man who is tied up. This is a puzzle. You want to spell out
five five-letter words by rotating the disks. One word is
"bleak".
There is also a puzzle in the air conditioner. Use the knob
on the air conditioner, then use the spatula. This starts a
puzzle where you want to move picture pieces around to form
a picture of a dragon.
You want to use a broom to sweep up all the glass here,
then you want to solve a simple fruit puzzle. Put the fruit
(and veggies) into the platter. They need to fit into the
outlines. Not all the food will be used.
003o. Level 15
-----------------------------------------------------------
The final puzzle of the game is a neuron puzzle.
