How to make 🕯️ Steampunk — 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.
- Earth + Wind = DustBoth Earth and Wind come straight from your starting elements — craft Dust first, everything else in this chain depends on it.
- Dust + Earth = PlanetPlanet is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.
- Fire + Water = SteamIf you already made Steam in an earlier session you can skip this one and move on.
- Planet + Steam = SteampunkFinal craft: combine Planet and Steam to make Steampunk. That's the whole path — 4 crafts total.

Why this is the cheapest path to Steampunk
We rank every known recipe for Steampunk by total crafts from the four starting elements, not just by the final combination. The two direct ingredients — Planet and Steam — cost 3 and 2 crafts to build from scratch, which is why the whole chain above needs only 4 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.
Alternative combinations for Steampunk
| Combination | Approx. cost |
|---|---|
| Dragon + Steam | 5 crafts |
| Phoenix + Steam | 5 crafts |
| Steam + Steampunk | 6 crafts |
| Atlantis + Steam | 7 crafts |
| Dragonfly + Steam | 7 crafts |
Any valid combo works — pick the ingredients you already have.

Tips for crafting Steampunk
- Craft in one sitting. The 4-craft chain for Steampunk 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 Planet) already — skip straight to the first step you can't do.
- Missing an ingredient? Check the alternatives table — e.g. Dragon + Steam also produces Steampunk if that route fits your inventory better.
