ANSWERS FOR YOUR FIRST SESSION

Home Herd: Cozy Sokoban Puzzle gameplay guide and player questions

App Store edition · Researched Nov 13, 2026 · Guide updated Nov 13, 2026.

Source facts

What is the primary objective in each level?

Your main goal is to guide the puppy to push every animal friend into the home that matches its specific colour. You must navigate these creatures across the farm to complete the puzzle successfully.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

How do I avoid getting stuck in corners?

Since the game follows sokoban rules where you can only push and never pull, you must be careful with your positioning. Always plan your movement to avoid pushing animals into corners where they cannot be moved again.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

How does the Ice Pond mechanic affect movement?

When pushing friends across an Ice Pond, they will slide continuously until they hit an obstacle that stops them. You must account for this sliding distance when positioning animals to ensure they land in the correct home.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

How do I keep Garden Gates open?

Garden Gates are pressure-sensitive and will only remain open while a character is standing on the corresponding key. You must strategically position an animal on the key to allow another friend to pass through the gate.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

What is unique about the Cow Farm levels?

Cows possess extra strength. When you push a cow, it will shove the friend located directly in front of it. Use this mechanic to move multiple animals at once or to reach areas that a single push cannot.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

How can I earn a gold star on a level?

To earn a gold star, you must complete the level using the true fewest number of moves possible. Every level has been verified by a solver to ensure this optimal move count is achievable for dedicated players.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

What should I do if I make a mistake while solving a puzzle?

You can experiment freely without fear of failure because the game provides unlimited undo functionality. If you prefer a fresh start, you can also use the one-tap restart feature to reset the level instantly.

Based on source 1.

Our guidance

Is there any help available if I am truly stuck?

If you find yourself unable to progress, you can use the hint system. A hint will show you the next best move to help you get back on track toward solving the puzzle.

Based on source 1.

Source facts

Can I play this game without an internet connection?

Yes, the game is designed to play 100% offline. This makes it an excellent choice for travel, as you can enjoy the puzzles on planes, trains, or any location where Wi-Fi is unavailable.

Based on source 1.
