       | One of the most famous indie games riffing on Sokoban and playing
       | with expectations for its gameplay is the delightful _Baba Is

       | If you're interested in trying to make your own variations on
       | Sokoban-like games, PuzzleScript[1] is tailor-made for the task,
       | with a fascinating declarative approach to describing game rules.
       | 
       | A Sokoban-like game can also be an excellent way to familiarize
       | yourself with a new game engine or graphics toolkit. My own
       | project, Decker, includes a very short Sokoban to demonstrate how
       | one might make turn-based tile-oriented games.[2]
