those puzzles are intense. they will keep me busy for quite some time. they remind me of that game traffic jam. only harder.
 
You all thought it not possible, try following 84 moves :biggrin:

Nice. Anton's script worked.
 
Interesting. I've never played one where one piece could move vertically and horizontally. Sure did make it a lot more difficult.
