Timberman is back in a whole new adventure! This old-school arcade-style casual game challenges you to become the ultimate lumberjack. Chop wood, avoid branches, and now—explore a vast world filled with enemies and puzzles. Unlock dozens of characters, build your village, and compete on global leaderboards in this easy-to-learn but hard-to-master platforming journey.

78/100

Timberman: The Big Adventure takes the classic, addictive tree-chopping mechanic and expands it into a full-fledged platforming adventure. While the core 'chop and dodge' gameplay remains, this version introduces actual levels, enemies, and environmental puzzles that make the experience feel much more substantial. You’re no longer just standing in one spot; you’re exploring forests, deserts, and even industrial zones as you rescue your friends.

The controls are tight, which is necessary for a game that relies so heavily on timing. It keeps that 'one more try' arcade spirit alive while giving players a reason to keep progressing through the story. The addition of boss fights and a village-building element adds a nice layer of meta-progression. It’s a great evolution of a mobile classic—simple enough to play with one hand but challenging enough to keep you on your toes. If you enjoyed the original Timberman, this is a massive upgrade in every way.

As an astronaut, I have had the opportunity to play many games while on my missions, but Timberman stands out as one of my favorites. The side-scrolling platformer is a great way to pass time while I am orbiting the Earth. The graphics are impressive and the controls are intuitive and easy to use, even in zero gravity. Guiding the lumberjack through obstacles and enemies while collecting coins and power-ups is a fun and engaging task that keeps me entertained for hours. I highly recommend Timberman to any astronaut looking for a enjoyable pastime during their missions.

Difficulty spike is insane

Once you get to Level 4, the game ramps up in difficulty to an unfair degree. It took me 3 days to beat Level 4 and what was my reward afterward? A freakin' BOSS BATTLE. No bonus level to stock up on lives or anything like that, nope just throw me into the deep end with my measly little 4 HP and good luck. No matter how many lives you have going in, they're gonna be drained very quickly due to inputs that only respond sometimes. If they do respond, it's the wrong input, so I end up pressing the ! Button instead of the 🤜 Button and get clobbered by one of the construction workers with a pipe. I'm sure other people would probably appreciate the challenge, but it's way too early in the game for that, imo. It was barely the 1st world. More frustrating than fun, but it WAS somewhat fun, therefore my rating reflects that: it was somewhere in the middle.

Stuck at level 1-3

I really like this game except that I’m stuck on 1-3 and see no way to get through to the end of the level. And then I die and have to watch a 30 second ad EVERY single time. Also I wish the directional were different

Love/Hate this game!

I grew up with the original Nintendo games and so I always love a 2D platform game. This one is HARD!! It’s taken me days to pass each level and I’m barely moving forward in the game. I guess that’s why I love and hate the game lol.. as kids we spent days trying to pass a level so it’s quite nostalgic . I just wish I could actually pass these levels!! I wish you could customize the controllers, and that you had an option to buy additional lives/ some type of abilities? There is a similar game which offered these options and it was one of my favorites.

Fun until world 3

This game is fun and cute, and I was happy to pay for it…BUT, it is buggy (my toddler pressing the screen in her own weird way triggers the debugger showing up)…not a big deal. The difficulty though is just ridiculous… I’ve been trying to bear level 3-3 for the last week and I’m at a point (right after the second save point) that seems absolutely impossible to pass. I’m basically at the point where I’m going to delete the game if I can’t pass it soon. So…fun game near-ruined by an unreasonable difficulty level.

More levels please!

I love this game! I rarely spend money on games but after beating the first 5 levels I was in love and spent the $5… only to find out there are only 15 levels! Total! If I had known that I wouldn’t have purchased it. I got 5 days of enjoyment but ultimately ended with a total letdown. Please add more levels so I can keep enjoying this game. If there were more levels I’d give it 5 stars

Needs control options

Fun game and finally bought after the $4.99 price issues were fixed. Main request I have is to make the button placement customizable. I’d like to separate them a little more to avoid hitting the wrong buttons.

Great game but…

There should be more free levels or all free levels because this game is really fun but for kids like me their parents might deny the premium so you either replay the free levels or by the premuim. Developers i knox that their is 5 free levels
