Classical Sokoban+puzzle game

The version history comments say they welcome feedback, but following the Apple support link is apparently a dead end from what I can tell. So I’m leaving this review mostly as a comment. I’m addicted to the game, And so far the levels in each category make a whole lot more sense than they did in the previous version., but… This game has a very frustrating crash. For example, open level 313 of verySimply. Press down, down, and then right. The game will vaporize. It seems to happen on many levels, but to the best of my recollection almost always when pressing or right against an immovable wall or perhaps a box against a wall as well. Very frustrating. Also, I wish they would make a better use of their three star completion. I wish I could get one star for simply completing the level, two stars for completing it within 10 moves of the minimal solution, and three stars for solving it in the fewest steps possible. I am not sure if they track the number of steps used to solve a puzzle, but I kind of figured they might use that to Sort 400+ people all at the same number of solved levels on their leaderboard. If the leaderboard would use number of steps as a secondary sort after number of levels complete, then one could use the stars to improve their standing by striving for a minimum steps on every level. And have a clue about how close they might be.

This version of the classic sokoban puzzle app includes 4500 puzzles. It works well for me; the controls are fine and gameplay is smooth. With so many levels, though, it’s a bit of a nuisance to scroll down to find the next one to solve when you start up. Also, I don’t understand the “best” scoring and the stars: I have gotten 3 stars on every level so far, and I think I’ve taken some extra steps.

I played Sokoban as a girl decades ago, and was discussing fondly the good games we used to have. Then I looked it up and was amazed and delighted to find this game that I could play from my phone. It was a good game then and it’s lost nothing in its quality and fun over the years, a true classic. The puzzles will challenge you and frustrate you and delight you.
