About the Sokoban board

This board ranks the fastest completed games of Sokoban by finish time. Push every box onto a target square without boxing yourself in. It is rated Logical and moreish, and every bundled level is solvable - reset any time you get stuck. The current top time here is 0:15 by Anonymous.

How ranking works

  • Only completed puzzles count, and every result is checked for a plausible time and move count before it is listed.
  • Ties break toward fewer moves, rewarding efficient solving as well as speed.
  • Signed-in players keep a permanent name on the board and sync records across devices; guests can still post a display name.
  • Switch between Today, This Week, This Month and All Time above to see recent form or lifetime bests.

What counts as a strong Sokoban time?

Times vary a lot by player and by board, but here is a rough ladder to aim for:

Just learningFinishing at all is the win - do not watch the clock yet.
Casual playerA comfortable, unhurried solve, usually a couple of minutes.
Getting goodA quick solve with very few wasted moves.
Speed solverWell under a minute on a friendly board - clean, decisive play.

The fastest way to climb this board is not frantic clicking - it is making fewer, smarter moves so the clock barely ticks while you plan.

Leaderboard questions

How does the puzzle leaderboard work?

It ranks completed puzzles by finish time. Every result is checked for a plausible time and move count before it is listed, and ties break toward fewer moves.

What counts as a good puzzle time?

It varies by game and board. Casual solves take a few minutes; sharp players finish in well under a minute on the smaller boards. The best way to compare is the daily challenge, where everyone gets the same board.

Do I need an account to appear on the leaderboard?

No. Guests can post a display name. A free account keeps a permanent name and syncs your records across devices.

Can I compare times fairly?

Yes - play the daily challenge, where everyone gets the identical board, so times are directly comparable.
