Frequently Asked Questions

What is Sokoban?

Sokoban is a classic puzzle game invented in Japan in 1981. The name means 'warehouse keeper' in Japanese. You play as a worker pushing crates (or boxes) around a warehouse, trying to put them in designated storage locations. The challenge is that you can only push boxes, never pull them, and you can't push more than one box at a time.

How do you play Isometric Sokoban?

Use the Arrow Keys or WASD to move your character around the dungeon. Walk into a crate to push it in that direction. Your goal is to push all crates onto the target positions marked with wooden planks. Complete each level with as few moves as possible to earn 3 stars. Use Z to undo moves if you make a mistake!

What makes a crate stuck?

A crate becomes stuck when it's pushed into a corner or against a wall where it can no longer be moved. This is called a 'deadlock'. Common deadlocks include: crates in corners, crates against walls with no targets, and groups of crates blocking each other. If you create a deadlock, use Undo (Z) or Restart (R) to try again.

How do I get 3 stars on a level?

To earn 3 stars, you need to complete the level at or under the 'par' number of moves shown at the top of the screen. Par represents a good solution - not necessarily the optimal one. Plan your moves carefully, use undo to experiment, and try to find the most efficient path for each crate.
