Push every box onto its target. That is the whole game — and it is harder than it sounds. 500 hand-verified levels Every level in Boxpush was built by a solver working backwards from the finished position, which means two things no other puzzle pack can promise: every level definitely has a solution, and the game knows the shortest one. The "best" counter next to your score is the real optimum, not a guess. Difficulty that actually ramps Levels are not sorted by how long they take. They are sorted by how many ways there are to ruin them — the legal moves that quietly leave a level unsolvable. Five bands, each measurably harder than the last, each introducing exactly one new idea. Two mechanics, introduced one at a time - One-way tiles: a box standing on an arrow can only be pushed that way. - Typed boxes: a marked box only counts on the target bearing the same mark. Built to be read Every piece on the board is distinguished by shape as well as colour. The whole game is playable in a black-and-white screenshot. Text scales with your system setting. Nothing is hidden behind a gesture. No timers. No lives. No streak to lose. Unlimited undo, because changing your mind is the mechanic. Works completely offline. Your progress stays on your phone. Free with ads. One optional purchase removes them — it unlocks nothing, because all 500 levels are free from the start.
