How to make Evil in Infinite Craft

How to make 😈 Evil — step by step

The cheapest known path. Craft each step in order — every ingredient is either a basic element or something you make earlier in this list.

1. 💨 Wind + 💨 Wind = 🌪️ TornadoBoth Wind and Wind come straight from your starting elements — craft Tornado first, everything else in this chain depends on it.
2. 🌪️ Tornado + 💧 Water = 🌊 TsunamiTsunami is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.
3. 🌪️ Tornado + 🌊 Tsunami = 💥 DestructionIf you already made Destruction in an earlier session you can skip this one and move on.
4. 🌎 Earth + 💧 Water = 🌱 PlantOne quick craft for Plant: drag Earth onto Water and keep the result for the chain.
5. 🌱 Plant + 💨 Wind = 🌼 DandelionDandelion is only needed as an ingredient — make it once, don't farm extra copies.
6. 🌼 Dandelion + 💧 Water = 🍷 WineWine is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.
7. 💧 Water + 🍷 Wine = 💦 Holy WaterIf you already made Holy Water in an earlier session you can skip this one and move on.
8. 💥 Destruction + 💦 Holy Water = 😈 EvilFinal craft: combine Destruction and Holy Water to make Evil. That's the whole path — 8 crafts total.

Why this is the cheapest path to Evil

We rank every known recipe for Evil by total crafts from the four starting elements, not just by the final combination. The two direct ingredients — Destruction and Holy Water — cost 3 and 4 crafts to build from scratch, which is why the whole chain above needs only 8 crafts. The alternatives in the table below are ranked the same way: their "approx. cost" is the pricier ingredient plus one, so you can see at a glance which route actually saves you crafts — and which ones quietly waste five.

What you build along the way

Every intermediate in this route earns its slot — here's the job each one does, and where else it's useful:

• Step 1 — 🌪️ Tornado: made from Wind + Wind, costs 1 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🔥 Fire.
• Step 2 — 🌊 Tsunami: made from Tornado + Water, costs 2 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🌎 Earth.
• Step 3 — 💥 Destruction: made from Tornado + Tsunami, costs 3 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🌎 Earth.
• Step 4 — 🌱 Plant: made from Earth + Water, costs 1 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🌎 Earth.
• Step 5 — 🌼 Dandelion: made from Plant + Wind, costs 2 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🌎 Earth.
• Step 6 — 🍷 Wine: made from Dandelion + Water, costs 3 crafts if you build it standalone. It only exists here to unlock what comes next. Beyond this chain it also feeds 🌎 Earth and 🔥 Fire.

Alternative combinations for Evil

Any valid combo works — pick the ingredients you already have.

Main route vs the alternatives

The table above lists other recorded combinations, but here's the practical difference. The main path totals 8 crafts; the next best, 🌋 Ash + 😈 Devil, runs about 8 crafts — essentially tied. A third option, Holy Water + Black Hole, sits around 8 crafts. Pick an alternative only when you already hold one of its ingredients from earlier play — otherwise the main route is the cheapest way in.

What can you make with Evil?

Evil is a busy ingredient. In the community dataset it shows up in dozens of downstream recipes: pair it with Vacuum and you get Dust; pair it with Engine and you get Steam; pair it with Storm and you get Tornado; pair it with Hurricane and you get Tornado; pair it with Mr. Windy and you get Tornado; pair it with Tempest and you get Tornado. Crafted items are never consumed, so one copy keeps working.

How hard is Evil, really?

At 8 crafts on the full path, Evil is a mid-difficulty project — a normal session goal (roughly the 67th percentile of our 527 published recipes). If you want a warm-up at the same difficulty, try these neighbours:

Mistakes to avoid with Evil

• Craft Tornado once and keep it — it's needed again later in this same chain. Rebuilding it is the #1 wasted-click mistake on this route.
• Don't jump to the final Destruction + Holy Water craft until both sides are genuinely in your inventory — the game won't guess for you.
• The order above is dependency-sorted. Following it top-to-bottom beats hopscotching: every step's inputs are guaranteed to exist by the time you reach it.

Tips for crafting Evil

• Craft in one sitting. The 8-craft chain for Evil takes under two minutes once you know the route — the list above is already in dependency order, so just go top to bottom.
• Reuse your inventory. If you've played before you probably own the early intermediates (like Tsunami) already — skip straight to the first step you can't do.
• Missing an ingredient? Check the alternatives table — e.g. Ash + Devil also produces Evil if that route fits your inventory better.
