What's New in Lumber Jack and Jill
1.8
November 9, 2026
THE OPEN FACE LOOKS LIKE AN OPEN FACE. Pick it and you now cut two sloping cuts that meet at a point — the Pac-Man mouth on every training poster — instead of a level cut with a steeper roof, which was the conventional face wearing a different label. The rail says LOWER instead of LEVEL for the first cut, the saw comes in from below, and the caption calls it what it is: open face (Pac-Man). The physics was always right about it; the picture was not. ONE DRIVE, NOT TWO. Finishing the taught tree, going to camp, picking a stand and driving out used to end in the easy/hard question and then a second drive to the same place. The question now hands you straight back to the tree you drove to. THE SAW SITS IN ITS CUT. On every sloping cut the bar's nose used to lag behind the kerf it was making, worst on the widest face. It travels the diagonal now.

FAQ
What is Lumber Jack and Jill?
Lumber Jack and Jill is a game that simulates the act of felling trees using realistic physics. Players must carefully plan and execute cuts to control the direction and outcome of the fall.
How does Lumber Jack and Jill simulate tree falls?
The game uses a deterministic solver where the tree's lean, wood properties, and player's cuts are calculated by gravity and physics. This means the same inputs will always produce the same fall, emphasizing repeatable technique.
Are there different types of trees in Lumber Jack and Jill?
Yes, the game features seven different tree species common to the interior mountain-West, including Douglas fir, ponderosa, and aspen. Each species has unique characteristics like size, weight, and wood density that affect how they fall.
What are the different camera views in Lumber Jack and Jill?
Players can choose from four camera perspectives: side view for reach and proximity, top-down view for bearing and distance, rear view to see side lean, and a close-up of the saw in the wood.
How does the in-game economy work in Lumber Jack and Jill?
Logs are sold at the lumber yard for in-game currency. This money can be spent on tools like bigger saws, safety equipment to mitigate costs from accidents, and fuel for the truck's crosscut saw.
Can I go into debt in Lumber Jack and Jill?
Yes, if you cause damage, such as felling a tree through a cabin, you will incur costs and can go into debt. The game's objective is to find a way out of debt through successful logging.
Does Lumber Jack and Jill have ads?
No, Lumber Jack and Jill does not contain advertisements. It is a free game that offers a pure gameplay experience without interruptions.
What devices does Lumber Jack and Jill support?
Lumber Jack and Jill is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod devices, indicated by its support for these platforms.
