About the game

A little incremental game about a very big tree. Chop wood, supply your shop, and hire gnomes to lend a hand. Grow a small woodland camp, then take a break for fishing, a campfire, or a soak in the hot spring.

Original Steam description

🌲 A small game. One very big tree. 🌲

The Woodman is a little game about chopping wood, selling it, and growing a woodland camp with some gnome helpers. Your goal is to chop your way through the whole tree.

🌲 Start with the tree 🌲

Walk up to the tree and choose the chopping action. Pick up the fallen wood and carry it to the chest in front of Storage. The shop turns your wood into goods for visiting customers.

Spend your earnings on better tools and new facilities. Little by little, the work gets easier.

🌲 Get a little help 🌲

Once you've built the gnome house, hire some helpers and assign them jobs. They can collect wood and carry it to construction sites while you get on with chopping.

Before long, the logs you carried alone have a little procession of their own.

🌲 Take a break 🌲

When you're tired, sit on a stump to recover. Catch a fish and cook it over the campfire, or go for a walk through the snowy woods.

A full belly and a soak in the hot spring can lead to an unusual upgrade. If bubbles appear, pick one.
