This line of PCs kept living for quite a bit despite its also 8-bit younger brother, the 8801, being superior in almost every way (It's last refresh in '85 gave it an OPN synth though), however it was cheap so games were still made for it and it was still getting type-in listings too.

This is one of those very late "official" type-ins, from 11-1988 released in the Mycom BASIC magazine. "Nagi Ishi Teki Kabe Tama Kuuhaku", its title is just the elements the game is made of. No title screen or any ending (enter just restarts the game, because there is no title screen).

It's a sokaban type game, but the goal is to destroy the jewel (yellow ball) and then kill the enemies (they'll respawn otherwise) in its 10 levels.
You are timed and 2 enemies (green things) chase you (not too hard to avoid though), you might also die by accidental squishing which is okay if you take the last enemy with you.
An enemy doesn't die to simpy pushing a box against it, though that will block them. You need to launch the boxes at them, the crystal is destroyed the same way.
You do this by charging a side of a wall piece and quickly pushing a block against that side, after a short while, it'll get launched. Other blocks and walls stop the block.
1 level has you chain launch them to destroy the crystal, but you should understand it by that point. No level constructor, but maybe the magazine had a section on how to make your own levels.
