Tales of Monkey Island Hints
How do I get the secret box?
1 of 5: You won't need this item until you're assembling the items to shrink La Esponja.
2 of 5: You need to get this guy on your side, to charm him somehow.
3 of 5: Did you open the chest in the jungle (through the Treasure Hunter rip)?
4 of 5: Use the Charming Belt Buckle on the Thief. He'll then happily let you take the secret box, though you still can't take anything else.
5 of 5: The Thief will then steal the belt buckle back from you, but that's okay; you don't need it, and it's a little too much power to put into Guybrush's hands, I'm thinking.
