Box Master

Box Master is a 3D puzzle game about pushing boxes onto targets. One move at a time, one room at a time โ until your brain starts to hurt in the best possible way. It looks simple. It is simple. Then level 30 happens. KEY FEATURES โข 155 hand-picked levels from the legendary Microban set โข 9 playable characters โ knights, skeletons, mages, rogues โข Full 3D world with a clean perspective camera โข VHS-style rewind: undo any number of moves, no penalty โข Hold-to-move controls for fast traversal โข Little voice lines and a jump button, just because โข Automatic progress saving on every level โข Keyboard, touch and gamepad support A LOVE LETTER TO TWO CLASSICS Sokoban was created in 1981 by Hiroyuki Imabayashi in Japan and quietly became one of the most influential puzzle games ever made. Nine years later, a small studio called TbiliSoft, working out of Tbilisi, Georgia, released a DOS clone with a national twist โ they called it Kurtan, after "kurtani", the rough sack Georgian shepherds used to carry their load. Box Master is a 3D remake that tips its hat to both: the precise, mathematical purity of Sokoban, and the warm, slightly stubborn personality of the post-Soviet clone that taught a generation of kids what "thinking three moves ahead" means. Pure puzzle, no accounts, no clutter โ just you, a room, some boxes, and the quiet satisfaction of clicking the last one into place.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Box Master at none against Sokoban's 1. Box Master also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Sokoban's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
