This is where you can discuss crafting in Virtual Villagers: Origins 2. You can post combinations that you've discovered or ask for help when you're stuck. We want to keep all of the crafting spoilers in one place (right here!) so that players who want to discover everything for themselves don't run into spoilers.

Just a friendly reminder, too, that we will move or delete any crafting spoilers that we find anywhere but here.

How to craft tools?

Tools are different from the items you make in the crafting hut. To make the first tool, you need to have a villager pick up a specific item. They will take that item to a place near the research table, where you can do more work on it.

The best way to find things the villagers can interact with is to slowly drag one of the villagers around the map and watch for hints at the bottom of the screen about the things they see.

I can't collect wale bones any more so how do i make the axe?

If you've already used the pickaxe for its intended purpose, then you will not need one again. If you haven't actually used it yet, you should find it near where you created it.

I have figured out how to make the holiday lights in the crafting hut. But how do I use them? When I drop a villager on the crafting hut the don’t show up as an option. I know Christmas is over, but I still want to decorate my village!!

After the event ended last week, the holiday lights went away for everyone. You can still catch fireflies and craft lights, but you can't use them. That seems messed up to me. They should have removed everything related to the lights if they weren't going to let us use them.

I must have started playing the game right after the holiday event ended. I agree, that is messed up. Just remove them from the game if we can’t use them. Or better yet, call them “festive lightss” like those lights people put on their patios and campers and let them be used year round.

A lovely player during our testing phase put together this awesome VVO2 crafting spreadsheet and shared it with everyone.

It is a Google Document (meaning that it is open for anyone to read and edit) so keep in mind that the information in it has not been verified to be completely accurate.

It can be found here.

Note: Since it was created by someone else, we don't have any control over if or when it might disappear, so keep that in mind!

Does anyone know how to make stone?
