- BRIEF INSTRUCTONS:
- ******************
- Soukoban is a classic logical puzzle game invented in the early 1980s by Hiroyuki Imabayashi,
- president of Thinking Rabbit Incorporated Japan. Soukoban is Japanese for warehouse keeper,
- and the objective is to move all the boxes to their correct destination in a crowded warehouse.
- What's the catch? You can only push the boxes, hence it's easier than you think to get them
- stuck in a dead end! Because of the ingenious simplicity and elegance of the rules, and the
- intellectual challenging complexity of the puzzles, Soukoban quickly became popular and has
- bedeviled computers and players ever since.
