Pyramids
The recent collection "AC Diamonds" of Andrej Cerjak has given me the idea to dedicate a post to the topic "pyramids".
A "pyramid" is a triangular structure (usually with two stepped sides), and inside her the goals are usually grouped in the shape of chessboard. The most classic example is the puzzle of Yoshio Sakae, "Pyramid Sokoban" (Sokoban Revenge #283, see below).
