Puzzle Push level guide
Sokoban Level 76: Namib Desert
The player starts in a narrow bottom pocket. An upward push fills the central target, but that barrel must move again to make room for the others. The route shifts the upper barrel right, lifts the central barrel, and sends another barrel toward the lower-left target.

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: Temporarily move a barrel off a target
Open one hint at a time. Try the suggested idea before revealing the next.
Hint 1
Your first push is up. It opens the entrance from the bottom pocket.
Hint 2
Shift the upper barrel right, then push the barrel on the central target up one more square. This makes room in the middle.
Hint 3
Move the right-hand barrel left past the central target. Later, return the lifted barrel to the middle and push the left-hand barrel down.
A mistake to avoid
Treating the first filled target as permanent prevents this route from opening the middle. A barrel on a target can still be moved, and sometimes must be moved to let another barrel pass.

Reveal the key moves
Move 10: Vacate the central target
After shifting the upper barrel right, push the first barrel up off its target. The central square becomes available for another barrel.
Move 20: Pass through the middle
Push the right-hand barrel left through the central target to the left lane. It will eventually go down onto the lower-left target.
Move 27: Return the central barrel
Walk above the lifted barrel and push it down onto the central target. The other two barrels now have their own approaches.

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