Detailed Guide

Step 1. Download the lastest SokoSolve installer

• Download the installer from the SourceForge download service
• Click the Download button on this page
• Select the standard MSI package(*). eg. "SokoSolve-bin-X.X.XX-alpha.msi"
• Download and then run this file
• Follow the installer wizard
• Click "Program Files > Games > SokoSolve Sokoban" to play.

Step 2. (If needed) The .NET 2.0 Runtime windows update

SokoSolve requires the Microsoft .NET 2.0 (or better) runtime, which is a standard part of Microsoft Windows. For most people this will already be installed. It is already included in Vista, or is automatically installed via Microsoft Windows Updates. More information about .NET 2.0 redistribution can be found here.

If you are uncertain, do step 2 (download & run installer) -- it will check for you. Otherwise, you can install .NET 2.0 by:

• Either: via Microsoft Download Center
• Or: via the Microsoft Windows Update Service, which according to Micrsoft is the preferred method. This only works under Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Feedback and Support

Support

If there are any installation problems or bugs in the software, you can add them anonymously on the development project page. This is the preferred method, but you can also email the team at bitwacker@users.sourceforge.net.

Feedback

There is also a feature request service, which is great if you have any good ideas or rough edges you would like clean up.

If you are a Sokoban enthusiast you can contribute to SokoSolve (levels, puzzle, solutions, testing, music, graphics, development, etc).
