Review:
Lumbearjack ("Lum-Bear-jack") is a relaxing adventure game where you play as a bear with an axe, whose mission is to return nature to its former glory. The gameplay involves literally slapping sense into humans, and chopping up any signs of human civilization. The game's wholesome kid-friendly vibe and simple mechanics makes it easy to pick-up-and-play, offering a stress free experience. Slowly transforming each level back into a green space feels well implemented and satisfying, giving players a constant sense of accomplishment and progression.
The game consists of 20 levels, each lasting about five minutes. The objective in every level is to simply destroy an evil companies equipment by hitting it with your axe, with some levels adding the mechanic of collecting enough rubbish to upgrade your axe before you can destroy the larger items. While there are occasional very simple puzzles using world elements, the variety in gameplay is very limited. There are golf and tennis mechanics, but they are very basic and don't add much diversity.
There is no death or time limits, leading to a cosy low-intensity atmosphere. However, the lack of any real difficulty will be a turn off for many players. The main challenge lies in finding all the rubbish hidden within a level, but this is generally not essential to advancing the story. The simplicity means that the game offers little in terms of replayability or lasting challenge.
At roughly 90 minutes in length, Lumbearjack is short but sweet, and packed with charm and personality. The game doesn't delve too deeply into its environmental message, maintaining a light-hearted tone without becoming overly judgmental. While it serves well as a relaxing diversion, the lack of challenge and depth will ultimately make it a charming but forgettable experience for most players.
Your video help a lot to figure which epic GA to try, love your score system too
It's the first video of yours I watch and you earned my sub. If your low sub count is indicative of the channel being new, I see a bright future ahead of you. Just like the name of the channel, the review itself also respected my time and was just the right length. Well done. I hope to see this channel grow and learn much from its recommendations.
Thank you. I really appreciate it.
Thanks for your vidéo man
I really appreciate your videos! c: what was that calming music that was playing throughout the video?
Thank you! It's not a real track, its just a 15 second clip I generated using Facebook MusicGen (you can find it on the HuggingFace website). Then did some manual editing in Audacity to smooth it and make it a loop
@@YourTimeMatters oh sick, thank you!
