It is set in a warehouse On each level, the player must push crates (from square to square) to get them onto designated spots; once each crate is on a marked spot, the level is complete Crates can only be pushed one at a time (so two crates next to each other cannot be pushed together), and cannot be pulled--so it's possible to get a crate stuck in a corner, where it cannot be retrieved! By the last levels, you must plan 40 steps in advance
