About game
Flying a wooden log across the countryside sounds absurd until you realize how much potential for chaos it holds. Log Flyer: Grandpa Takes Off puts you in the pilot seat of a makeshift aircraft that defies every law of aviation. You spend your hard-earned coins in the workshop to bolt on wings, powerful engines, and ridiculous nose cones to reach the village. Managing your fuel levels becomes a balancing act between burning thrust to climb and gliding through the air to cover more distance. Gravity will constantly try to pull you down into a comical crash, so you must master the pitch of your rig to stay airborne. Snowy mountains and even lunar landscapes await those who master the art of the perfect launch. Upgrading your gear remains the only way to squeeze out those final meters needed to hit the target distance. You can try this hilarious physics challenge for free right here in your browser with zero downloads required.
How to play
