The wonderful world of box pushing…

Remember the days when box pushing was fun?  Slide a box here, move there, make sure you don’t trap yourself.  Ahh, the joys of being a warehouse keeper.  What? Those days aren’t over.  You can experience them over and over again.  That’s right be it PC or Mac, XBOX or Playstation, you can have the fun again of playing the box pusher.  You know the game I’m talking about.  Sokoban and it’s millions of variations.  In fact even yours truly had the opportunity to create levels for a 3d Sokoban-style game called Grek’s Puzzle Challenge (the last game on the page).  Originally created in 1980 by some Japanese dude (you can read the Wikipedia entry as linked above), it has come to be loved and played by millions.  It’s no surprise, then, that it should come to Xbox Live Community games, in the form of Penga’s Peril.
