How can I have fun on a rainy day?

There are lots of ways to have fun when it's raining outside. You could create some art or bake something with a parent. Or escape to a new world with a good book. You could build your own cozy reading fort, turn out the lights, and read with a flashlight. Or you could try balloon tennis. Attach a paper plate to a paint stick or ruler to make your tennis racket. Blow up a balloon and let the games begin!

Infinite Craft introduction

What is Infinite Craft?

Step aside, blocky builders and recipe-reliant crafters. Infinite Craft operates on a different plane. Here, you start with four basic elements: earth, wind, fire, and water. But the magic lies in combining these to create entirely new things. Each fusion unlocks a world of possibilities, from familiar animals and mythical creatures to abstract concepts and fictional characters.

Think: Dragons born from fire and wind, bustling ecosystems from earth and water, or mischievous fairies crafted from air and light. The only limit is your imagination.

Who Created this craft game?

This innovative sandbox was brought to life by Neal Agarwal, the developer behind the popular interactive fiction platform Twine. Agarwal is known for his passion for exploring creative boundaries and building tools that empower others to do the same.

When was it created?

Infinite Craft free launched in February 2024 on website, and has quickly garnered attention for its innovative approach to gameplay and endless potential for creative expression.

It's intuitive and accessible. No complex menus or recipes to memorize, just pure experimentation.

All Crafting Recipes & Combos?

Hold on, adventurer! There are no predefined "recipes" in Infinite Craft. The beauty lies in the unpredictability of each combination. While some might yield familiar results (earth + water = plant), others will surprise you with fantastical creations. This discovery process is the heart of the game, constantly pushing you to explore and experiment.

But fear not, fellow creator! The game features a community-driven "Discoveries" section where players share their creations and the combinations that led to them. Use this wealth of knowledge to spark inspiration and guide your own journey.
