About game
Simulation enthusiasts who love building an empire from a single axe will find Lumber Tycoon addictive. Your journey starts by wandering through forests where your character handles all the heavy lifting automatically. Simply walk near trees to harvest logs and bring them to your sawmill for processing. Profits earned from wood sales allow you to upgrade machinery or hire extra hands to speed up your work. Managing your growing economy requires smart choices as you decide which island projects to prioritize. Repairing houses earns you passive bonuses that push your progress further into the game. Expanding across multiple islands ensures your wood empire never stops growing. You can jump into this browser simulation for free right now without any downloads required.
How to play
The controls are incredibly simple and intuitive. Move around the island using the WASD keys (or the virtual joystick on mobile).
You don't need to click anything to chop — when your character gets close to a tree, they automatically start chopping, and logs are collected straight into your inventory. All interactions with objects on the island work the same way: to activate a button on the ground, just stand on it. To upgrade a house, simply stand next to it — the upgrade starts instantly.
No complex combos — just walk around the island, and your character does all the work. Focus on your strategy, not on pressing buttons!
