Soukoban (倉庫番) is a puzzle game, originally developed by Thinking Rabbit and published by ASCII for the MSX personal computers, only in Japan. This version is notable to include data recorder support in order to save the player's progress into a cassette tape from Stage 11 and ownard. A dual-side cassette tape called Soukoban Tool Kit (倉庫番ツールキット, referred in the title screen as Soukoban Power Up) was created and includes additional 41 stages plus a stage creator, but it was sold separately.

The MSX version of Soukoban received an unlicensed port for the Sega Master System in South Korea, appearing in several multicarts. Due to hardware differences from the MSX to Master System, there's no cassette tape support, which means all 60 stages must be done in a single playthrough.

Multicart appearances

In both versions, the title screen is hacked with Hangul text, which means I.Q. (아이.큐). The status bar at the bottom of screen is either invisible or completely eliminated, due to the graphical arrangements. Often, I.Q. is also the name for the SG-1000 version of Soukoban in other multicarts. The SG-1000 version also does appear as a more common pick-up choice in multicarts over the MSX version.
