Welcome to the world of Jack Lumber. He works as a lumberjack, chopping down trees and returning the logs each shift to the local branch of the Log Company. After successfully working 3 days he gets his transfer to the next branch, which makes life progressively harder. If Jack successfully completes all 4 branches then the Log Company will reward him generously.
Five stars are located throughout the landscapes. On collecting each star a letter of the word EXTRA appears in the display area. If Jack collects all 5 stars before he completes each day then he will be able to compete in the Bonus Play section. In this section. Jack must jump across the log flume to catch the falling stars. As Jack collects the stars then he gains additional ammunition and bonus score, and if he successfully lights up the word EXTRA then he will gain a bonus life (or bonus umbrella if full lives)
For each level there is a time level in which the shift must be completed. The amount of logs required for each shift is shown at the Log Company window. If Jack doesn't complete it within the time limit then he will lose a life and must restart the shift. If he is in the Bonus Play section and time as elapsed then he will still progress to the next day.
There are 4 branches of the Log Company. Each one in a different location, with three shifts to be completed in each. The 4 branch locations and Jack's ammunition are:
