What is Sokoban YASC?
Sokoban YASC—Yet Another Sokoban Clone—is a Windows puzzle game about moving boxes onto storage spaces. In normal play you push one box at a time rather than pulling it, and neither the player nor a box can pass through walls. Planning access to each box matters as much as reaching its destination.
YASC adds ways to explore a difficult puzzle without committing to one route: unlimited undo and redo, snapshots for saving branches, multiple views and a reverse-play mode. Deadlock detection helps identify mistakes, while replay lets you revisit a solution. Skins change the board's appearance.
For working beyond the supplied puzzles, the project includes a level editor, solver, solution optimizer, level generator and duplicate finder. The capture tool can extract levels and skins from images. The publisher describes the solver as help for small levels, not a promise that it can solve every puzzle.
This entry links to the standard 1.690 Windows EXE from the official SourceForge project. The project's release feed dates that file to August 24, 2026; Softonic still lists the older 1.670 release. The gallery image illustrates an earlier interface and is not a verified capture of 1.690. Exact minimum Windows version and CPU architecture for this package were not established from the inspected official page.
What it offers
- Undo and redo moves without a fixed limit; use snapshots to retain different solution paths.
- Explore reverse play and multiple views, with deadlock detection and solution replay.
- Create levels in the editor or generate new puzzles with the included tools.
- Use the small-level solver and solution optimizer to study and refine solutions.
- Customize skins, extract levels or skins from images, and find duplicate levels across collections.
Good to know
- The publisher describes the solver as suitable for small levels; it does not guarantee solutions for every puzzle.
- The inspected official page does not specify a minimum Windows version or CPU architecture for the selected 1.690 installer. Softonic's Windows 2000 listing belongs to its older 1.670 entry.
- Unix use depends on the Wine compatibility layer; this download is a Windows application, not a native Linux package.
