I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok
This game clicked with me

This was our first Huemer game and it sat on the shelf for a long time. Oddly when we opened it we didn't get green meeple workers, but a purple colour instead--ok...

The first couple of plays were write-offs as I had missed a few rules. But then I got it and the game because one of my favourite "love/hate" games. The game seems to almost be a simulation and I can certainly see why some people would absolutely hate it because of that. And the theme, well, how many people even know (or care) about the history of forestry? (I'm from BC, so forestry is interesting to me)

That said, there is something about the way the game works with its extremely tight management that is fascinating. The margins are paper thin most of the time and if a player is not observing and planning, they can mess up their season and potentially the rest of the game (I've done this). We created a house rule to ask a player who skips acquiring a specific worker on the path if they intended to do so, and when we play we banter about our moves which helps lubricate what could be a dry game. If you like planning, you'll like this great game. This version adds a couple of new mini expansions that add further variability.
