Description of PPCSokoban program from Softdepia.com:
A game which keeps your brain busy. Sokoban is a popular puzzle game implemented on almost all computer systems. It is a true part of computer gaming folklore. The aim of the game is to move a person (Jap. Sokoban = pusher) around in a two-dimensional maze and to move a number of boxes into some designated storage positions. The pusher may only push one box at a time and he cannot drag boxes. If he manages to move each box to a target position (any box can move to any storage location) the game is solved. The main problem in solving a game is that wrong moves may place boxes in unrecoverable positions, eg. into a corner of the maze. The player then cannot move the box any further, because he cannot reach a position from where he can push the box. Since the player may only move one box at a time, boxes can also block each other, therefore the player has to consider the order in which he pushes the blocks.
