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? |

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. |

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. | ||||

5543 moves! There are some good parts, but too many errands for my tastes. Too cruel! |
