About

Carve Rush

Features
Read full description

Carve The Log is a satisfying 3D wood carving puzzle where every chisel counts. Tap colored chisels, place them into the holder rack, and match them with the exposed rings on the log. Each chisel has limited carving power, so choose the right order, manage your slots, and clear every layer before the rack gets stuck. Carve colorful rings from outside to inside, reveal new layers, solve tricky blockers, and complete each wooden object piece by piece. Simple to play, satisfying to carve, and clever to master.
