Title: Sokoban
Requires: 386 PC, 4MB RAM, VGA graphics, 3 1/2" HD drive, Windows 3.1, and DOS 3.3 or higher.
Soak a what? That's Sokoban. In Japanese, this means "somebody who shoves crates around in a warehouse," or something like that. And that's just what you have to do in this game. You've got to move the boxes and things around in order to achieve a winning configuration by getting them to their intended destination.

If you've played our Rescue Rover game, this has some of the same basic ideas, only without the dog to rescue. You move around on the game field and push objects around by getting behind them and moving. Be careful not to push a crate against a wall, as you can't get it away again, since these crates don't have hand-holds for pulling. If you push one into a corner, it will stay there.

This multi-level strategic puzzle game will give you some headaches as you work through a series of increasingly challenging warehouses, but no matter how many crates you move, you won't get a hernia!

More Sokoban action may be found on Softdisk for Windows #9.
