There are a host of sokoban styled puzzlers available on Xbox consoles. And they cover a huge range of themes. There’s Sokocat – Combo, SokoBunny and even the bright and colourful Sokolor. And now there’s SokoWinter.
A new soko-slider
Available as the latest on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S from the QUByte Interactive is SokoWinter. A box slider that comes with the most slippery of floors, if you are at all familiar with any of the previous sokoban games, you’ll be right at home with this one.
The whole winter theme seems to fit this one nicely. Ice floors will see you shifting huge ice blocks from pillar to post, all in order to complete the stage in hand. And with those building in complexity and difficulty as you go, slowly and surely you’ll begin to get your head around what is on offer.
Some 100 stages are available in SokoWinter on Xbox, with unlockable penguin protagonists helping you shift those blocks. From there, it all feels very familiar. Push blocks, over and over again.
