<Tom 7> Good, I'm glad it has a little difficulty, at least. It's sometimes hard to tell with these tiny ones.
<Max> This one is surprisingly hard for its size! Very clever. |

<Max> Ha, yeah, it did take a while, but it's only fair. ;)
<Tom 7> LOL, max.
I'm glad you went through the trouble of solving this one just to torment us. ;) |

<Tom 7> How could you guys rate this as anything but 0 for difficulty and 10 for rigidity? THERE IS ONLY ONE MOVE TO MAKE AND IT CAUSES YOU TO WIN! |

<Tom 7> This is a really cool level.. it needs a new kind of reasoning that I haven't seen before.
It also serves as a good worst-case test for the new panel animations (which perhaps make the level more confusing, anyway)... |

<Tom 7> Yeah, sokoban does always get easier after the first block or two comes out, huh? |

<Tom 7> As near as I can tell, this level was made as a sort of fan tribute to a handheld radio shack sokoban game called IQ Carrier. Since John Polhemus submitted it to another free Sokoban program, I'm assuming that he's okay with it being in the Escape collection.
I'm perfectly happy to have Sokoban-style levels in Escape (Joshua Bone's levels are really great, for instance), but of course I can't permit copyrighted levels from other games to be used. Unless it's really obviously a copy, I'll leave them until someone complains. Anyway, it's better if the levels are original compositions, don't you think? |

<bpotetz> I must be completely OCD to solve this level AFTER having solved Hard IQ Carrier. |

<bpotetz> I agree, Max. This level was a snooze. Don't attempt this level unless you've got something else going on to amuse yourself. Maybe books on tape.
Anyway, I was also wondering - what the hell is "IQ Carrier" supposed to mean, anyway? A quick google search reveals that IQ Carrier is a collection of Sokoban levels that were removed from the macintosh shareware distribution because "they are evidently still sold commercially in Japan". Better start working on your defense, Tom. Interestingly, the original level this was based on seems to more closely resemble Tom's version, where each block is needed. (See:
www.sourcecode.se/sokoban/levtext.php?file=TitleScreens.slc
)
Unfortunately, I still have no idea what "IQ carrier" means. Maybe you have to be Japanese. |

<Max> Man, what an obnoxious level!! A better title would be "Patience Carrier," since all it really took was the determination to push blocks around for over 5000 (!!!!) moves. |

<Tom 7> Might as well make 'em use all the blocks!!
(Hint to completists: If you solve this level, the same exact solution will work for 'Hard IQ Carrier'; so you can save yourself some finger irritation. After solving it, press ctrl-0 in the triage directory, and type the name of your player file (mine is tom.esp), and it should find this solution and use it for 'Hard IQ Carrier'.) |

There are some good parts, but too many errands for my tastes. Too cruel! |
