How to Craft Items in 99 Nights in the Forest

Crafting in 99 Nights in the Forest begins at the crafting bench found in your camp or shelters scattered across the map. Open the crafting menu, select the desired recipe, and make sure you have all the required materials collected from the environment, such as wood, stone, herbs, or monster drops. Once the ingredients are gathered, press the craft button to create the item, which will automatically appear in your inventory. Some recipes require higher crafting levels, so gaining experience through repeated crafting helps you access more advanced gear and tools.

Once you load into a game, you will spawn near a crafting bench. Walk up to it and follow the steps below to craft items:

Simply head to the crafting bench and press E.
This will unlock the crafting table menu with recipes.
Now, select the crafting recipe for the item you want to craft.
If you have the required materials, submit them at the crafting bench to make the item.
And voila, without any wait, your crafted item will be available for use.

You will have four craftable items unlocked at the start, and you can craft more once you upgrade the crafting bench. The crafting bench has five levels, and upgrading to a higher level unlocks a new set of items. To craft each item, you will need a certain amount of materials, mostly wood and metals.

Wood can be obtained by chopping trees. It can sometimes be found as logs in some houses and certain areas of the forest. Metal can be found as scrap items scattered around the forest, such as sheet metal, old radios, bolts, broken fans, metal chairs, etc.

To craft items in the Tool Workshop in 99 Nights in the Forest, you must find the anvil building. Once located, players can craft unique items after assembling the central anvil. It appears as a large stone-brick castle with vines that let players climb to the higher floors.

When spotted, it shows up on the map as an anvil icon. The workshop is guarded by two Cultists and one Crossbow Cultist, who must be defeated to begin crafting. The anvil has three parts: the base on the first floor, and the other two pieces on the second and third floors, respectively.

Once built, the anvil lets you craft a hammer, bandages, mammoth helmet, and more items, but only one item can be crafted at a time.

How to Upgrade the Crafting Bench in 99 Nights in the Forest

Upgrade the Crafting Bench by gathering the required rare components from forest expeditions, then use the bench’s upgraded slots to craft higher-tier items and access additional recipes available only after reaching 99 Nights.

As mentioned above, you need to upgrade the crafting bench to unlock new crafting recipes in 99 Nights in the Forest. To do so, simply go to the table and submit the required materials to upgrade it.

That said, here are all 99 Nights in the Forest crafting bench levels, along with the materials required to upgrade them:

Crafting Bench level 1: Default crafting table
Crafting Bench level 2 upgrade: 5 Wood and 1 Scrap
Crafting Bench level 3 upgrade: 15 Wood and 10 Scrap
Crafting Bench level 4 upgrade: 20 Scrap, 30 Wood, and 2 Cultist Gem
Crafting Bench level 5 upgrade: 50 Scrap, 50 Wood, and 1 Gem of the Forest

Best Items to Craft in 99 Nights in the Forest

Craft arrows and spears first to handle early threats from cannibals and mutants. Build a sturdy log cabin with planks and rocks for reliable shelter against nightly attacks. Fashion a lighter from cloth and booze to ignite fires quickly, keeping you warm and cooking meat. Upgrade to metal axes using ore and sticks for faster wood gathering. Prioritize tripwires with rope and sticks-they alert you to approaching dangers and save lives in tense standoffs.

Phew, with the basics out of the way, it’s time to talk about the items that you should actually craft and invest your previous resources in. Almost all items are useful; however, the items listed below are must-haves if you want to increase your survivability in 99 Nights in the Forest.

Map: This is pretty self-explanatory, as you will need a map to navigate through the forest.
Bandage: Any item related to healing and reviving is important in a survival game – 99 Nights in a Forest is no different. This item helps you revive your teammates anywhere.
Respawn Capsule: Another item that can revive your teammates if they die.
Oil Drill: Oil Drill is an essential item to keep your campfire burning during the late game. So, make sure to put the Oil Drill aiming at the Campfire.
Ammo Crate: This can be useful if your teammates are using long-range weapons like a Gun, Revolver, or Rifle.
Crock Pot: Keeping your hunger bar full is crucial, and with each passing day, you will need more food to fill the bar. Use the Crock Pot to cook meals, and consuming them will keep your hunger bar full for some time.
Beds: Beds are a must-have as they are easy to craft and increase your days counter.
Farm Plot: Use the Farm plot to grow carrots every two days. By placing the Crock Pot near the Farm Plot, the vegetables grown will be automatically transferred to the pot.
Freezer: A great option to store your collected food items, rather than carrying them in your backpack.

We recommend having at least one team member play the Blacksmith Class. At Blacksmith level III, that player has a higher chance of receiving extra Scrap when placing Scrap items in the Grinder. They will also be able to craft certain items at a discount and unlock access to the next crafting level easily. So, make sure to purchase the class from the Shop using gems that you earn from 99 Nights in the Forest codes, scavenging hunts, and by completing a game run.

Best materials farming routes for Scrap and Wood

For 99 Nights in the Forest, efficient farming for Wood and Scrap mainly comes down to running tight loops through high-density spawn areas and resetting them quickly between nights.

General farming tips

Run short loops, not long map tours; dense circles around known spawns give more materials per minute.
Always carry a Map/Compass and plan routes that pass your camp so you can dump weight and craft in between runs.
Farm during safer time windows (early in the night or after major threats move away) so you are not constantly interrupted.

Wood farming routes

Stick to forested paths close to your base early on, especially the clusters of felled logs and stumps that you can repeatedly harvest each night.
Make a clockwise or counter-clockwise loop around your starting area tree clusters, then return to camp; repeat each night as nodes respawn in the same rough spots.

Scrap farming routes

Prioritize man-made locations: abandoned cars, camps, cabins, towers, and any metal structures, as these tend to have higher Scrap density than open forest.
Create a route that chains 2-3 nearby “civilized” points of interest (for example: cabin → road with vehicles → tower) and then returns to camp to bank your haul.

Mixed Wood + Scrap loops

When possible, build a loop that runs from forest edge (wood) into a road or small outpost (scrap), then back through trees. This balances both resources without extra travel.
If you are preparing for higher-tier benches, favor scrap-heavy loops, since wood is usually easier to top up by briefly detouring through tree clusters near base.

When to change routes

If you can clear a loop faster than nodes seem to respawn, expand the circle slightly rather than running across the whole map.
Once you unlock better mobility or defenses, extend your route to further, more dangerous POIs with richer scrap piles, but always keep an escape path planned.

Because live, exact map routes and coordinates usually come from up-to-date, game-specific maps and community diagrams, checking a current interactive map or community guide for “scrap route” and “wood route” overlays is recommended to see precise paths for the latest version.

Best early-game scrap and wood farming route

For early game in 99 Nights in the Forest, use a tight loop around the starter area that hits both tree clusters (for Wood) and the nearest man-made POIs (for Scrap) before returning to camp each run.

Route goal

Aim for a 2-3 minute loop you can repeat several times per night instead of roaming the whole map.
Always end the loop at your camp so you can bank materials, craft, and reset safely.

Step-by-step path idea

Start from camp and sweep the immediate tree clusters and stumps around your base in a half-circle; this quickly fills your Wood without much danger.
From the edge of that forest ring, move toward the nearest road or cabin/outpost you have discovered, hitting any scrapables like wrecks, boxes, or metal junk, then follow a shallow arc back to camp instead of pushing deeper.

Why it works early game

Close-to-base trees are low risk and respawn reliably, so you rarely run out of Wood even if your route is short.
Early POIs near spawn usually have enough Scrap for Tier 1-2 upgrades without forcing you into high-threat zones, which suits low gear and limited healing.

Small optimizations

Bring only what you need (weapon, light, a bit of food) so you can carry more materials each loop.
If you notice you clear the loop faster than things respawn, expand it slightly on one side (a bit deeper into the forest or one extra building on the road), but keep the camp as the endpoint.

Right now, precise coordinate-style or map-marked routes from external guides are not accessible, so this layout uses general early-game principles that apply to the starter region and nearby POIs in 99 Nights in the Forest.
