If you’ve been exploring the charming world of Little Alchemy, you’ve probably realized that some items are essential for unlocking hundreds of new combinations. One of the most important early-game creations is the Tool. Whether you’re trying to make humans, machines, metals, or more advanced inventions, you’re going to need a Tool sooner or later. This guide breaks down exactly how to make Tool in Little Alchemy, plus multiple alternate methods, what you can create with it, and tips to speed up your progress.
⭐ Quick Answer: How to Make Tool in Little Alchemy
The most straightforward recipe is:
Human + Metal = Tool
But don’t worry—if you don’t have Human or Metal yet, this guide shows you how to make both from scratch.
1. Step-by-Step: How to Make Tool in Little Alchemy (Full Breakdown)
To make a Tool using the main recipe, you need two ingredients:
- Human
- Metal
Below you’ll find a complete breakdown of how to craft each one starting from the basic four elements: Earth, Air, Fire, Water.
2. How to Make Metal in Little Alchemy
Metal Recipe
There are two easy ways to make Metal:
Method 1: Fire + Ore = Metal
Method 2: Fire + Stone = Metal
Most players find the Fire + Stone route easier early in the game.
🔧 How to Make Stone
- Air + Lava = Stone
- To make Lava: Earth + Fire = Lava
So the full chain is:
- Earth + Fire → Lava
- Air + Lava → Stone
🔧 How to Make Ore (Optional Route)
- Earth + Fire → Lava
- Earth + Lava → Volcano
- Earth + Volcano → Ore
This method takes more steps, so Stone is usually the faster ingredient.
3. How to Make Human in Little Alchemy
Human Recipe
The simplest recipe is:
Life + Clay = Human
But here’s how to make everything from scratch:
❤️ How to Make Life
You can make Life using one of these:
- Energy + Swamp = Life
- Energy + Primordial Soup = Life
Read our guide on how to make life in Little Alchemy.
A simple chain is:
- Fire + Air = Energy
- Water + Water = Puddle
- Puddle + Water = Pond
- Pond + Water = Lake
- Lake + Water = Sea
- Sea + Earth = Primordial Soup
- Energy + Primordial Soup = Life
🟫 How to Make Clay
Clay is much easier:
- Mud + Fire = Brick, but for Clay you want:
- Mud + Stone = Clay
And to make Mud:
- Water + Earth = Mud
So:
- Earth + Water → Mud
- Air + Lava → Stone
- Mud + Stone → Clay
🧍 Putting It Together: Make Human
Now combine:
Life + Clay = Human
You now have one of the most useful items in the entire game.
4. Final Step: Make the Tool
Once you have Human and Metal, combine them:
✔️ Human + Metal = Tool
Congratulations—you now have Tool!
