The most popular sokoban games

Sokoban refers to a type of puzzle video game where the player controls a character (typically a warehouse worker or similar) tasked with pushing crates or boxes around a maze-like environment to solve puzzles. The objective is usually to push all the crates onto designated storage locations within the level, with constraints on movement such as only being able to push one crate at a time and not being able to pull them.

The name "Sokoban" is derived from Japanese and roughly translates to "warehouse keeper". Sokoban games often feature increasingly challenging puzzles requiring careful planning and strategy to solve.
