Tips, Tricks & Strategies

1. Watch Those Ads For Freebies

All he asks for is your time.

Ads — they’re a modern-day way for developers to earn from their free-to-play games, if not from player-made transactions. Some love them, some hate them, but in some cases, these ads are quite necessary. The reason behind this is because ads in Lumber Inc. reward the player greatly with all kinds of freebies.

It’s better than bad. It’s good!

Firstly, your lumber mill can benefit from temporary boosts: your workers will work faster, you’ll order a truckload of freshly cut logs, or even earn a large sum of money from the VIPs that visit your mill. Watching these ads will be for the good of your workers.

Secondly, you can gain a boost in earnings. At the very bottom of the screen, Lisa (your secretary) will occasionally flash a sign offering you twice the earnings. Don’t miss out on this and take that offer. 

For every ad you watch, you will boost your earnings twofold for an hour (capping at a maximum of 6 hours). The best part about this is that your earnings stay doubled even if you’ve put the game down.

Thirdly, watching ads in the shop will allow you to claim free boxes that contain Manager Cards. These cards will help you get or upgrade managers, further increasing the income and speed at which your machines operate. You can receive at least 5 boxes in total everyday.

Lastly, if you like Lumber Inc., this is the best way you can support the developers if you aren’t buying any of their premium shop items. In this case, it’s a win-win situation, so give those ads a shot.

We’ve tackled one of the arguably hard parts of the game (because not everyone likes ads), now where do we start? We start with the workers, of course.

2. More Workers, More Logs

Look at these bad-axe mothers.

Any good sawmill merits itself not on the quality of its machinery but the dedication of its workers. It all starts with the people who fell the trees rather than the ones who prep them for shipping.

Your workers are the very impetus of your operation. The more workers you have, lumberjacks especially, the more logs you will yield. This includes training them and hiring more of them. 

Starting off with three lumberjacks is good, but it’s better for you to spend your money on their training. They will be able to fell trees faster and, in turn, yield more logs. As your machines get more and more advanced and sophisticated, you will need to get more lumberjacks to pick up the pace.

They know how to stop the environment from dying.

But the lumberjacks aren’t the only ones involved in this basic operation, you’ll need tree planters, too. Planters ensure that you don’t kill off the environment. They’ll keep planting trees and let them grow back so the lumberjacks can harvest more wood from them. 

Starting out with one planter per every three lumberjacks is ideal and training planters will certainly aid in funding the rest of your operations.

Once you’ve settled on your workforce, it’s time to focus on the next crucial step of your operations: the equipment.
