Stay Focused. Chop Trees. Watch Your Wood Multiply. Timb3r is the focus timer that rewards you like an idle game. Work in 5-minute sprints—every session fells a tree and generates wood. The wood compounds. Unlock trees. Upgrade axes. Automate income with enchanted axes. Watch the numbers climb. HOW IT WORKS Select your focus duration (15, 25, 45, 60 minutes—or custom 5-120 min). Start the timer. While you concentrate, your character swings an axe at trees. Every 5 minutes of uninterrupted focus = 1 tree chopped = wood earned. Fail mid-session? You keep the trees already felled (no harsh penalties). Complete it? Earn bonus rewards and watch satisfying animations. PROGRESSION SYSTEM Progress through 6 tree types as you chop: Pine, Oak, Maple, Redwood, Cherry Blossom, Ancient Oak Unlock 6 axes to match your style: Starter, Iron, Steel, Golden, Diamond, Inferno Each axe improves your visual experience and satisfies that incremental progression craving. ENCHANTED AXES: PASSIVE INCOME Stop playing, keep earning. Buy enchanted axes with your wood—each generates 1 wood per hour automatically. Free users get 5 axes max. Pro users unlock unlimited. Watch your offline earnings grow while you sleep, work, or live your life. FEATURES 5-minute tree cadence: Focus sessions feel quick, rewarding, and sustainable Custom durations: Preset timers (15/25/45/60 min) or create your own Satisfying animations: Axe swings, tree shakes, and tree falls with haptic feedback Wood compound growth: Your idle income increases as you buy more enchanted axes Persistent progression: All trees and axes unlock permanently Dark mode support: Easy on the eyes during late-focus sessions Apple Watch widget: Monitor your wood and active sessions from your wrist iCloud sync: Your progress syncs across devices FREE vs PRO Free Tier: Full timer with all durations 3 tree types (Pine, Oak, Maple) 3 axes (Starter, Iron, Steel) 5 enchanted axes max Ads after every 3rd session Pro Tier ($4.99 one-time): Unlock all 6 trees and 6 axes 10 enchanted axes (double passive income potential) Advanced stats dashboard Zero ads WHY TIMB3R? Not another Pomodoro clone. Timb3r borrows the "numbers go up" satisfaction from idle games and merges it with focus timers. You're not just being productive—you're progressing, unlocking, and building a satisfying game loop. The inverse of Forest: instead of watching things grow, you actively destroy them with style. Perfect for: Incremental game fans seeking productivity benefits Focus-seekers who love cosmetic progression Anyone who enjoys watching resources compound Students, developers, and remote workers People chasing that "one more session" feeling Chop your first tree free. No subscriptions required to play.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dark Tapper at none against Timb3r's 1. Dark Tapper also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.5). Timb3r's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
