Nowhere on the packaging or in the documentation does it mention who actually awarded "Puzzle Game of the Year" to Pandora's Box but if you go to Microsoft's web site , you'll find that it was the now defunct "electricgames.com".

Award legitimacy aside, the main difference with this release and the original version is the inclusion of about fifty more puzzles bringing the total number up to 400. These bonus puzzles are accessible from the main menu and are not included in the "quest" portion of the game. [source:mobygames]
