Play as a lumberjack chopping an endless tree. Choose the left or right side for each swing, and switch sides to avoid falling branches.
Chopping keeps the timer from running out, while the pace quickens as you continue. A branch hit or an empty timer ends the run, sending you back to try again and beat your score.
Play solo or compete with friends and online opponents. Scoreboards support record chasing, and continued play unlocks timber characters; the game also features different environments.
Players often enjoy Timberman's easy-to-grasp, fast reflex loop, especially for short sessions and repeated attempts to beat a record. Some also like competing with friends. Others feel the simple chopping routine becomes repetitive quickly, and some criticize the limited variety, music, or multiplayer experience.








Take your axe as every lumberjack does and chop the tree as fast as you can!
