Graphics are great, the game feels very atmospheric altogether. I like the concept, though controlling the characters was rather frustrating. Often I could not select a unit because it was close to the fire, even though the arrow showed.  The game seemed very difficult at first, with my units being killed off in seconds.  I eventually got the hang of it and managed to chop all the wood, though I didn't manage to kill all the monsters yet.  I think with more units and more autonomous behaviour (like auto attack enemies and bring back wood automatically) this would be great fun.
