"One of the most original-- but sadly unknown-- puzzlers ever made, freeware or otherwise, The Continuing Adventures of CyberBox is a great Sokoban variant that is very innovative and ingenious. Based on 1991's CyberBox, Edward Collins' version is a far superior and much more addictive than the original."

What is CyberBox? The
Continuing Adventures of CyberBox Your mission is to escape from each of the 15 rooms presented in each volume in as few moves as possible. You'll accomplish this by correctly utilizing and manipulating the various types of boxes placed throughout the maze. The boxes could be Pushers, Zappers, Movers, Pullers, or Selectors and as the names suggest, they move in very specific ways. The puzzles may be solved consecutively or you may jump from room to room. The program keeps track of which rooms have been solved and the number of moves it took to solve each one. A number of handy features include Instant Replay which plays back all of your moves, a Retry option which starts you over from the beginning of the room, a Take Back option to take back a move, and a Save Your Current Position option, to easily return to a previously saved position. Other
features let your set game colors, A room editor is included if you wish to create your own puzzle! |
