"The gateway to crafting."

A workbench is the first crafting surface for a Blockhead to obtain after starting in a new world.

How to Craft a Workbench

A block of dirt is required to craft a workbench. After getting the dirt, tap on a portal and select the icon on the far left of the menu, "WORKBENCH," then tap the "WARP IN" button.

A workbench can also be warped in for 50 Time Crystals from the Character Status Window.

Using

Like other crafting surfaces, a workbench must be placed on top of a solid block before it can be used.

Tapping on a workbench gives two options: Remove and Workbench.

Remove causes the selected Blockhead to move to the workbench and place it in his/her inventory.

Workbench opens the crafting menu, showing a left-right scrollable list of icons. See Crafting for details about how to use the menu. Tapping the "Craft" button (if visible) will add the task to the selected Blockhead's queue.

Tapping outside of the menu will close the workbench menu with no action taken.
