Get your thinking caps on and prepare for some spatial reasoning challenges in Space Filler.
Speace Filler is a new Sokoban-inspired puzzle game from developer Sid Fish Games and publisher Xitilon – and it is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
This cosmic block-pusher adds intriguing new mechanics to the classic formula, tasking you with filling holes in space, one strategic move at a time.
In Space Filler, you control a spaceman whose mission is to push green blocks until they perfectly cover designated holes in each level. It sounds simple, but you’ll need careful planning and foresight to navigate the increasingly complex layouts without getting stuck or accidentally sending your spaceman floating into the void.
Beyond Basic Block Pushing
While the core gameplay involves pushing blocks like traditional Sokoban games, Space Filler introduces some clever twists:
Magnetic Yellow Blocks: These blocks stick to any green block they touch, turning those green blocks magnetic too! This creates larger, connected shapes that move together, adding a significant layer of complexity to your pushing strategy.
Purple Wall Manipulation: You can push your connected block formations against special purple walls to break them apart and rearrange their shape, allowing for intricate solutions to seemingly impossible problems.
These unique mechanics elevate Space Filler beyond a simple pushing puzzle, requiring you to think about connectivity and block manipulation in new ways. Thankfully, the game includes options to undo moves or restart levels if you find yourself in an inescapable corner.

Space Filler Description
A sokoban inspired push blocking puzzle game. Use the d-pad to move the space man with the objective of pushing the green blocks until they perfectly cover each hole in order to progress through each level. Undoing moves or restarting levels if you are stuck is possible. Yellow blocks are magnetic. They will stick to any other green block they touch and they too will become magnetic. You can push your blocks into the purple walls to rearrange the shape of the connecting blocks. The spaceman must avoid the holes or they will get sucked out into space.
