Chop A Forest Beginner Guide

Chop A Forest is a free Roblox incremental simulator by WCT Capital (place ID 103363457515322, universe 10767386157), created on 21 September 2026. It is not The Forest, Sons of the Forest, Cut the Forest, the s&box game Chop the Forest, Chop Trees for Treasure, or 99 Nights in the Forest. Your first hour is a loop: hit a tree, pick up logs, sell them, then buy the Axe.

I reconstructed the first hour from MMORocks’ beginner, backpack and money pages (17–19 October 2026) and ProGameGuides (15 October). The order matches. The official game text also says “SOLO & FRIEND RUNS SAVE!” which is why the mistakes list tells you not to expect a public server to keep the run. I have not timed a personal hour inside the client.
