Default Pocket Sokoban - Freeware Game

http://www.not-big-deal.com/product...hp?product_id=7

"Sokoban is a very popular puzzle game. The goal of this game is to move all boxes in the crowded warehouse to correct positions. Rules are very simple. Use keys of your PDA to move Sokoban and push boxes. Sokoban can push only one box at a time."



I've played a number of variations of this game, and all of them have been addicting. This one looks like it's no exception to the rule, and even better, it's free. 8)

i'm wary of free software like this..especially when it comes with an .exe install program...have no idea what this program does on your desktop.

this is the prime way spyware gets installed on individual desktops now...
not that i'm saying that this software does it...but it could.

Don't know about the paranoia, but the thing spent about three minutes on my iPaq 4155. Kept freezing up as I changed level sets or even in the middle of play. Required soft resets to get control back. The install routine clearly states this is an alpha version, so no surprise. If it gets stable it may wind up as one of their pay games. D-pad on my 4155 seemed too sensitive for this as well. Click in one direction often sent the little wharehouse guy scurrying way to far. I like the implementations where you click at the point you want the guy to end up.

I installed the game on my storage card and it locked up my 1945. I had to soft reset the device. I tried it a couple more times but the results were the same. The only thing I am going to do with the game is remove it.
