A meditative yet tense routine of chopping trees to pay off a mysterious debt in a quiet, foggy settlement.

What players say
Players enjoy the relaxing tree-cutting loop and pixel art but agree the game is very short, around 2 to 4 hours. The final debt mission asks for thousands of trees, which some find tedious. Performance stutters at launch were mostly fixed quickly. Players are split on the price relative to content.
