One good way yo play this on DOSBox is to set it as a Tandy Machine, and fixed cycles 200. Game on! |

Yes, that's it. And no, there is no pull movement. On Youtube there is a solution of the level with that part corrected. It seems to be a known bug on Commodore 64 versions, but in some DOS versions also exists. |

OK, I never played sokoban a lot, but only this lower left part of the level seems impossible. The two adjacent crates you can only push left, which will get you stuck. The lone crate can only be pushed down, which will get you stuck. Is that the bug? Is there maybe "pull" movement in Sokoban?

On level 37, I had to look for the solution again. I complicate it myself in some place, and in other spot, in the same level, it was really hard. --- Then, yesterday, I reached the level 42. I have a version of the game with a bug on this level that makes it impossible to solve. Watch out with that. You can go crazy.

I'm playing this game once in a while. I'm in level 36 now. The only level I had to find help for the solution until now was level 30. Very tricky that one.

Big problem with the game is, that it uses the Windows' clock (sets it to 12:00). That's just another reason why I prefer the windows-version instead of the DOS-variant. Worst thing in the game it has no ending-screen, no save... |

| LaFey | Spectrum Holobyte where not from Japan - far from it - they were based in California, US - they only got the license to sell the game in the western market. They did the same with Tetris, except Nintendo was on to the same trail and they got the license for home computers while Nintendo got the console license. |

Levels 1-50 are the original levels but you can make your own levels on the numbers 51-99 with the built-in level editor... i guess this Version you can download here just has 3 custom levels already done by the one who uploaded it or someone else. I wonder if there is a way to convert the Standard-ASCII-format which most Sokoban-Clones use for Levels (see Wikipedia) to the old binary format the original used for custom-made levels... Anyone an idea? But propably not possible without knowing the source code of Sokoban.  perhaps you could write a program which would fake the inputs in the built-in Level-Editor to reconstruct the levels ingame you gave as ASCII-file beforehand...  Sokoban Directory looks quite confusing anyway... :wallbash: |
