Mac servers use AFP for the network protocol, and a Mac server usually uses HFS+ as the disk format on the Mac server. They are totally different things. This is why it is possible for a Mac to be a SMB server using a HFS+ disk, and why a Linux server can be an AFP server using an Ext4 Linux formatted disk.

Sokoban is a puzzle game requiring logical thinking andpuzzle-solving, not lightning-fast reflexes. The goal is to pushboxes to their correct destinations in a crowded warehouse. Thechallenge comes in having to think ahead; in the process of movingthe first box, you might accidently push another one into a corner.Because the boxes are so heavy, you can only push one at a time andcan't pull them at all.
The game was invented in the early 1980s in Japan and won acomputer game contest there. Since then, versions have been writtenfor most personal computers.
This Macintosh version is completely free, andruns on any Mac under System 6.0.7 or later (finally including Mac OS X).
Finally for OS X
Jan 26, 2006: Egad, it was 1.5 years ago that I threw this together.Anyway, feel free to try out the (preliminary) OS X version. RequiresMac OS X 10.2. Let me know how it works and inspire me to finish it up!Download Sokoban for OS X.
Sokoban 2.5 beta!
Dec 20, 2001: A beta version of Sokoban 2.5 (for Mac OS 7, 8, 9, and Classic under OS X). This update allowslarger levels and lets you resize the main window.Download now(314K).
This beta may actually end up being the final version. I'm just callingit beta because I haven't tested it completely yet.

Download
Download version 2.4.2a (202K; released April 11, 1999) athttp://sneezingtiger.com/sokoban/sokoban2.4.2a.hqx.
New features in version 2.4.2:
- Updated my address.
- Included Yoshio's levels (also available on Sokoban Levels page).
- Removed Boxxle and IQ Carrier levels because they are copyrighted and still being sold in Japan.
What was new in version 2.4:
- Better shortcuts: spacebar as a shortcut for Redo.
- Undo a whole action; for example, you can undo an entire drag move by hitting undo once instead of once for each step the pusher took in the course of that move.
- Sound support.
- Save solutions and remember solved levels in external collections (user-created text files).
Future Plans
At one time, I was working on a version 3.0, but the toolkit I was using isn't supported on OS X. Eventually, I'll learn enough about OS X programming to rewrite it there. But if you still have an old Mac and want totry a preliminary version, follow this link.
I also hope to find and distribute many new levels and encourage playersto create their own levels. Check theSokoban Levels page for new levels.
