Timber - M.A.M.E

Now heres a game I never knew existed until I saw it in MAME. And boy what a cool game it is too.

You are that barkeep from Tapper (he gets about a bit doesnt he!) and it is your job to cut down all the trees in this field using only an axe. Sound simple? It aint as theres nature to contend with in the shape of bears who throw bee-hive's at you. There is also a time limit to cut down the trees, so you better get your skates on.

After a few rounds, you get a bonus stage which is a log rolling contest, where you have to keep on this log that is floating in a river. the log starts to rotate in one direction so you have to stay on by running in the opposite direction... until the log starts rotating the other way, and you have to switch quickly.

This is one of those enjoyable games, but you arent quite sure why - the game is simplistic enough, and if it wasnt for the eye catching hi-res visuals, you probably wouldnt take a second look, but with this its a good idea that you do. It is great, so give it a try.
