February 14, 2026 at 09:40 AM
Added full crafting walkthrough, ammo crafting at Exploration Club, PC and controller controls, and combat tips
After you finish the main tutorial and Solara downloads the apps to your phone, you can claim a reward from the Island Life app called Basic Tools Manual. This unlocks the ability to craft a Slingshot at your worktable.
Crafting recipe:
2x Softwood (gather from the ground or cut trees with an Axe)
2x Fiber (cut shrubs and wildflowers with an Axe)
You need to visit the Exploration Club to get started with ammo. The club is above the Green Pasture Ranch, on the hill past the archery targets. Talk to Zephyria there, and he will give you a quest to start making ammo.
Inside the Exploration Club, interact with the cash register to buy the Stone Ammo recipe. There is a crafting table by the blackboard in the main room where you can craft ammo right away. You can also buy the Ammo Maker table blueprint to build one at home.
Stone Ammo recipe: 5x Stone produces 2x Stone Ammo.
You can also use minerals and ores as emergency ammo from your bag, but do not waste good materials on it unless you are in a tight spot.
