About the Game
Hands On Construction
Build using physical materials because every piece matters. Cut, prepare, paint, and assemble panels and studs to create your structures and watch your construction take shape over time.
Material Processing
Chop trees, cut logs to length, and use workstations to turn raw wood into usable building materials.
Realistic Tools & Worksites
Use scaffolding with adjustable height, industrial lights for night work, table saws and chop saws to prepare materials, and plan your build like a real jobsite.
Physics & Structure
Construction reacts to support and reinforcement. Poor planning can cause collapses, while solid builds stand strong.
Earn & Invest
Complete optional work, take on timber-related jobs, and earn coins to unlock new opportunities, tools, and forest access licenses.
Greenhouse & Relaxed Activities
Grow vegetables in your greenhouse for extra income, or take a break from building with small activities like fishing and fair games.
Cozy Sandbox World
Work at your own pace in a calm environment with no pressure. Build, rebuild, and experiment freely.

Small Patch
Fixed that sometimes when attaching log to another log the roations does not line up with existing log. Fixed that in workhsop you could get stuck in one of the walls. We are aware of tools getting stuck in weird animation/postion when the tool has been used and changed quickly in hand,but it still does work. This is something we are working on right now. Thank you for your reports!Read full article on Community Announcements (Quattrob7)
