How to play Sokoban
Make Sokoban your next activity in the game library. Push every crate onto a target. Look at what changes after your first action. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Look at what changes after your first action.
Push two crates onto their targets in compact 7×7 rooms. The starting layouts can be solved; an unhelpful push may still trap a crate.
Keep the aim in sight
Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Push every crate onto a target. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- Move through empty floor.
- Push one crate into empty space.
- Never pull or push two at once.
- Undo a deadlock and continue.
Controls
Arrow keys or direction buttons. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Check any mode label before starting.
A useful example
A crate in a non-target corner cannot be recovered by pulling. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Consider the player’s access behind crates. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
