As soon as I click on tree character starts moving to it...... and also it does not hold axe it just drops it

you have to put it in the equipped slot

There, you see? I'm not the only one having trouble here.
This game does a *very* poor job of explaining basic concepts to the new player

MadZec, let me try to help. In the box by your house, you left click on the axe, then left click in the "hand" box, which is at the far right end of the row of inventory boxes at the bottom of the screen. Yeah, that squiggle in the far right box is apparently supposed to represent a hand. Once you have the axe in that "hand" box, and your character is visibly carrying it, mousing over a tree will show an axe cursor. Then you left click over & over to chop the tree down.

Same goes for gathering the herbs, which are bunches of three roundish greenish things scattered around.

Good luck, bro.

Yea thanks that hand icon is barely visible and I just gaze it over and just thought it is inventory slot......
Thanks guys!

There is a icon at the top of the screen that gives you all the information from how to use the objects to how to farm and build. Its a full list of instructions.

Yeah, in pictograms. You can drive yourself crazy trying to figure out what that stuff means.
And there's no explanations. I'm supposed to make bread. I have a windmill. But I need a kiln in which to bake it, and the kiln is locked. There's a padlock symbol in the recipe book, and NO EXPLANATION of what to do to unlock it. Are we supposed to be mind readers, or what?

While lot of people like to play games to discover all things while they play. We do need at least SOME indication that can be seen on what is needed to do like for example showing basic elements.

Having to figure it all out for yourself is one thing in a turn-based game, in which you have time to think. But this game is a race against the clock, which is always ticking, and your hunger. There's very little time to really think about it.

What I find with the pictograms in the help screens is that they make sense *after* I have figured out how it works. Before that, they might as well be in Sanskrit.

I still really, really REALLY want to know how to unlock the Kiln.

[Redpossum]

I figured out how to unlock the kiln. You have to first unlock everything to the left of it.

In truth it's more like an oven, BTW.

A kiln is used for heating industrial stuff - pottery, bricks, drying firewood, etc.
