Puzzle Push level guide
Sokoban Level 72: Redwood National Park
Three barrels form a row, but each needs only one push. Most of the route is walking to the correct side. Clearing the left barrel opens a crossing; the middle barrel goes up and the right barrel goes down.
Try the board first
3 barrels · 3 targets · Starter difficulty (estimated)
The cat is the player, trees are walls, barrels are boxes, and pale squares are targets. A barrel covers its target when placed. This is Puzzle Push's level numbering; another Sokoban game may use different boards.

Hints: Walk around a row of barrels
Open one hint at a time. Try the suggested idea before revealing the next.
Hint 1
Use the empty right-hand passage to reach the space above the row.
Hint 2
Push the leftmost barrel down onto the lower-left target. The gap it leaves lets you cross between the two sides.
Hint 3
Reach the middle barrel from below and push up. Then circle around to push the rightmost barrel down.
A mistake to avoid
You cannot push the whole row sideways. Sokoban allows one barrel per push; an adjacent barrel blocks that move. Look for the free spaces above and below instead.
Key moves in one valid solution
These board snapshots explain the important turns. Each move number counts walking and pushes from the starting board.

Move 6: Open the left crossing
The left barrel is on its lower target. Its former square is now a route between the upper and lower spaces.
Move 15: Push the middle barrel up
Use the crossing to stand below the middle barrel. One upward push fills the top target.
Move 22: Approach the last barrel from above
Walk back around the row and push the right barrel down. Three pushes solve the board; the walking makes those pushes possible.

This is one valid route, not a claim of the fewest moves. Watching a replay does not save a manual clear.
