Forum rules


Please read the following rules before posting a download request in this area:

1. Don't post a request if you have under 10 posts as stated on the front page. If you do anyway, it will be deleted without further notice. This also applies to other members: If you see a request by someone with less than 10 posts and it hasn't been deleted yet, please don't reply to it.
2. Don't request for warez or any copyrighted software. Only betas (no matter how old or new) and finals of operating systems and applications that are at least 10 years old and therefore classified as abandonware are allowed to be uploaded to and shared on the BetaArchive FTP server.
3. If you have your own FTP server where you'd like other members to upload what you're looking for to, please don't post its login details in any open forum as that will probably lead to abuse. Post the login details in the Private Servers section instead.
4. Check that we don't already have the file on our FTP servers. If you don't have access to the FTP servers then ask someone who has (a moderator for example).

Hi all. After going through my old disk files, I stumbled upon this neat little game that I had: Sokoban for Windows 1.5, an old version of Sokoban released back in 1999 (for Windows 95/98).

Anyways, I decided to share this. The license (readme.txt) says its freeware, but it has to be unmodified. However, this is not the case because the setup.ins appears to be corrupted (Error 704). Curious, I extracted the files from Data.cab, and it worked! Could this be classified as abandonware by any chance?

The site of the developer, http://www.sourcecode.se/sokoban , is still functional, but the newer versions require a purchase.

Notice I've included the installer and the working files. :)

The original installer could still be found on the Internet Archive... CLICKY
There is also a file called "Soko13.exe" on the Internet Archive from the same website but thats exactly the same file and thus unpacked version 1.5...

The download file is 16-BIT and could not be started at 64-BIT machines, unpack with 7-Zip and start installer (SETUP.EXE) or unpack "data1.cab" with software like "UniExtract" and open "sokoban.exe".

Fun game it is but I still prefer the version by Spectrum Holobyte. :-)

Don't ask me for uploading anything outside BetaArchive (so no MF, RS, MU and others). I will explicitly upload to the BA FTP for centralized storage and preservation...
