Box Stocks

Box Stocks is a Sokoban puzzle game with unique in depth block-based mechanics to discover and master. It’s rarely as easy as it looks to get boxes where they need to go as a result of the curious ways they move and interact.

The first box to acquaint yourself with is the expander box, the most mechanically distinct box. These blue crates won’t simply move where you push them, rather pushing them will expand them out further in that direction. On top of that, the boxes are attached magnetically, requiring innovative solutions to challenges.

Is one box not enough? Fortunately, there are many more where that came from! There are retracting boxes, moving boxes, and many more, each with its own equally strange interactions and complex synergies when working together.

Across seven interstellar areas and more than 100 puzzles, you’ll need to develop your spatial reasoning and box-pushing skills in order to become fluent in the interactions between the boxes and other mechanics.

On top of all that, a bafflingly absurd story can be uncovered through exploration of the world. Brock Stocks’ Stocks of Boxes, a galactic box research, production, and moving corporation, seems to not be great at picking up after themselves (or anything else for that matter), leaving company notes and mail all over! Uncover the secrets of the expanding universe of this dysfunctional cooperation and the web of antics that ensue.

How did these boxes get here? Why were they made? How do they work? What does this have to do with you? All these questions are within reach. Or, within vacuuming distance; you don’t quite have hands.
