Logger
伐木工
Logger is an action arcade game released in 1982 by Century Electronics. Players control a lumberjack tasked with cutting down trees and rolling logs across a river using a series of platforms. The objective is to clear logs while avoiding hazards such as birds, bouncing balls, and other obstacles that move across the screen. Controls involve moving the character left and right and using an axe to chop. The game supports two players, allowing alternating play. Stages increase in difficulty as more obstacles appear and movement speeds up. The gameplay draws comparisons to titles like Frogger, with its focus on safe navigation and timing across moving objects.
