Club Soko is cartoonishly dark and splattered with beer - and it's a wonderful puzzler, too

Sokoban games are those puzzlers that are all about pushing blocks around.

The short version

• They're spatial challenges at their most fiendish.
• I gather that the original Sokoban took place in a warehouse, and you were shifting crates back and forth.
• The latest iteration I've played is set in a nightclub, and that turns out to be a truly inspired choice of location.

What happened

One of the things I often struggle with in the information-rich worlds of Sokoban games is remembering what the various parts of each level do. You're basically given a grid in these games, and you need to clear a path through it.

Why it matters

Because this grid is a dance floor in Club Soko, most of the obstacles are other dancers or members of staff.
