Jack Lumber is ‘Poplar’ With the Press!

4 out of 4, A Must Have!
"Between the excellent art style, goofy humor, and enjoyable gameplay, Jack Lumber is as lovable as its rugged hero. Its the stuff of App Store legends."
- Andrew Podolsky | Slide to Play

G4 GAME OF THE WEEK!
"...A funny (and solid!) story, hilarious power-ups, and non-intrusive IAP. Jack Lumber is an easy shoe-in for one of this year’s best iOS games."
- Ashley Esqueda | G4 Knuckle Up

148Apps EDITORS CHOICE!
"Jack Lumber is completely ridiculous and I love it. It’s easy to pick up and play, has plenty of laughs, and actually has a great number of levels to go along with it. Put on some flannel, grow out that beard, and chop some wood."
- Carter Dotson | 148Apps

"The addition of super-hard four-star scores and difficulty-upping beards keep the replay value high. Jack Lumber injects a welcome layer of depth and strategy into the casual touch-slicing genre. The title is a great combination of frantic finger action and smart combo scoring."
- Justin Davis | IGN

"Axe-identally in love; funny and addictive, and has tremendous respect for the player. Jack Lumber is quirky, stylized, and unlike anything on iOS."
- Chris Plante | The Verge


A LUMBERJACK WITH AN AXE TO GRIND
A tree killed his granny and now he is out for revenge. Meet Jack Lumber, the superhuman lumberjack who hates trees, loves animals, and hates trees. Did we say that twice? The guy really hates trees.

Hike the trails of Flapjack Forest, trudge through The Loggers Bog, and ascend Widowmaker’s Peak chopping down every pine, oak, and maple that stands between you and the tree that killed your sweet old granny.

SHOW EM WHOS BOSS
With one mighty swing of his axe, Jack Lumber sends logs, syrup bottles, explosives, and forest critters flying into the air.

Use magic powers to enter LumberTime. With the logs suspended in slow motion, draw a smooth path for Jack’s axe following the grain of every treacherous log.
Poke at the adorable forest animals living rent-free in your cabin after you’ve destroyed their homes

Raid Granny’s Cupboard!
- Drink Granny’s magical syrups to enhance your powers.
- Intensify the gameplay by equipping challenging new beards
- Spruce up the old cabin with tasteful lumber-decor!
- Turn the forest into sawdust with the finesse and grace that only a burly lumberjack can possess. But be careful not to harm your furry friends.

Every level requires timing, skill, logic, and flannel to solve. (Flannel wear not actually required) Unlockable missions, player driven challenges, and inventive power-up combos make it exciting to play this game again and again.

OTHER FEATURES:
- Universal support
- GameCenter Leaderboards and Achievements
- Optimized for retina displays on the New iPad, iPhone 4/4S and iPhone 5

Pros and cons of Jack Lumber app for iPhone and iPad

Jack Lumber app good for

Its like Fruit Ninja, except a lot more strategic. Unfortunately, the music does clip out occasionally after a round.
Ever since the beginning of June when I try to get in to it it goes to Sega then it try to get to the home page to press play then it crashes?!?! Plz plz please fix this stupid bug He he Im the bug crashing your game
reminds me of ninja fishing. but its ok. also...what does the u.s. iTunes app store have against system optimizer apps, system memory refreshing apps, & battery boosting apps? seriously! every time i find one that does it all, inevitably the app store phases it out. these types of utilities are readily available in every other store, but not in the u.s. store. its as though apple doesnt want its customers to be able to enjoy the benefits of this type of utility, and they dont have the right to decide that for their customers. (and yet they have done just that) hasnt anyone out there noticed this? i cannot be the only person.
Great Artwork, Humor and love for Details and stupid stuff :D Great Game Description!
By far the best game I have played this summer! Very addictive.
This game is super fun. Way to go Sega and Owlchemy! So much more challanging than mindlessly slashing fruit!

Some bad moments

Hold my finger down to slow time and then run my finger through the logs. Ive done both of these things and the game does not cut the wood. I am completely accurate but the game just doesnt want me to progress for whatever reason. Dont know why. But I do know why I deleted it.
This is a game for children. Along the lines of cut the fruit, only easier. Humor and puns? Funny if youre 4. Frankly, I cant believe I paid $1.99 for it. The stuff App Store Legends are made of? I think not. Great game for kids under 10? Absolutely.
How do i get my money back i paid 5$ expecting something much different
No longer works after iOS 9 install. Game is amazing otherwise if you have 8.4 or lower.
When I first played it reminded me of fruit ninja but it is way better!!! The cute graphics and story line give it a little more depth. Im addicted.
... I have trouble slicing logs because of the screen size. This must be an awesome iPad game. iPhone, not so much.
