What is Sokoban?
Sokoban is a logic game created by Hiroyuki Imabayashi in 1981 and later published in 1982 by a Japanese software company, Thinking Rabbit inc.
How does it work?
Your goal as the sokoban (warehouse keeper) is to push all the red rubies onto the green pads.
This is done by controlling the sokoban's movement using the arrow keys on your keyboard or by using your mouse.
Only one ruby can be pushed at a time and cannot be pulled.
As seen in the demo you may move a ruby off the green pad in order to facilitate the ultimate goal of having all green pads occupied by a ruby.
While completing a puzzle is an accomplishment in itself, the ultimate satisfacation comes when you've done it in as little moves as possible.
