SimulationIs Forestry 2017 - The Simulation worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Simulation players who want forestry machinery and timber processing
- Players interested in managing orders, workers, and company expansion
- Fans of logging games who want both motorized equipment and a logging horse
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking fast-paced action rather than equipment operation and production management
- Players wanting a broad range of environments or activities beyond forestry work
Our take on Forestry 2017 - The Simulation
The store presentation foregrounds large machinery and forest work, while the underlying loop also depends on orders, production, worker management, skill upgrades, and company expansion. That makes it a business-management simulation as much as a logging equipment game.
What is Forestry 2017 - The Simulation?
Operate a forestry business through logging, timber handling, and production.
Use harvesters, trucks, tractors, crane arms, chainsaws, and a logging horse to fell trees and organize wood. Process four tree types, sell timber and other products, and select incoming orders to set the production cycle. Revenue funds additional machines and equipment. The game includes worker management, character progression, skill upgrades, and chainsaw unlocks. Forest maintenance and attention to different tree species form part of the work. A detailed environment includes a day-night cycle, while machinery use is presented as a central part of completing forestry tasks and managing the company.
