Each stage is viewed from above on a tile grid. The objective is to place every crate on a goal tile while moving through corridors and around obstacles.

The player can walk and push, but cannot pull crates. Levels usually become harder through tighter layouts, restricted access, and interactions between multiple crates. A mistaken push may make a stage unsolvable, so restarting and planning sequences are central to progression.

Plan the final positions of crates before making the first push. Avoid placing a crate in a non-goal corner or against a wall unless that position is part of its intended route.

Work backward from difficult goals, preserve access through narrow corridors, and move crates that block the player before committing other crates. When a position becomes impossible, restart rather than trying to repair an irreversible mistake.
