Sokoban

• Fullscreen

Sokoban mini-games are engaging, puzzle-solving games that challenge players to push crates or boxes into designated spots within a maze-like environment. The term *Sokoban* comes from a Japanese word meaning "warehouse keeper," and in these games, players take on the role of a worker who must strategically move boxes to specific locations in a warehouse or storage space. In Sokoban mini-games, the main objective is to move all the crates to their target positions, which are often marked by special spots or designated spaces on the grid. However, the challenge comes from the limited number of moves allowed and the fact that the player can only push boxes — not pull them — meaning the puzzle requires careful planning and foresight. Obstacles such as walls or other boxes may block paths, forcing players to think several steps ahead to solve the puzzle. As players progress, the puzzles become more complex, introducing new elements such as multiple boxes, narrow paths, or additional obstacles. Some versions may feature a time limit or require the player to complete the puzzle within a set number of moves. Sokoban mini-games are widely available on mobile apps, online platforms, and retro game collections. These games provide a fun and stimulating experience for puzzle enthusiasts, requiring patience, logic, and problem-solving skills.
