Crafting

Most items that the player picks up in We Happy Few can be used to craft something new, and some of the newly crafted items can also be used to craft something new. Some of the craftable items require a Workbench or a Chemistry Set to be crafted.

There are five menus for the player to navigate and craft items from, they include Survival, Outfits, Tools, Weapons and Chemicals. Below is a list that show all craftable items under its respective tab.

All of the items stay in the same tab through the rest of the game, however, some items change whether they require a Workbench/Chemistry Set or not between each Act and gameplay mode.

Gameplay

During story mode, it doesn't matter whether the player has their items in their inventory or in their pneumatic stash, they will still be able to craft new things. This does not apply for Survival/Sandbox Mode however, as the player will be required to have the items in their inventory in order to craft anything.

Arthur seems to get a randomized crafting recipe every time he completes a quest or sidequest.

Sally and Ollie are unable to craft certain items from their crafting menu, this is because of their character perks. Sally cannot craft anything from the outfits tab, nor anything from the workbench. Meanwhile Ollie cannot craft anything using the chemistry set.

Trivia

• In old builds of We Happy Few, the Crafting menu only had three categories; Basic, Mechanical, and Chemical.
  • 'Basic' listed commonly used items such as disposable lockpicks, jimmy bars, pure water, and outfits.
  • 'Mechanical' listed advanced gadgets and weapons such as bangers, anti-future devices, electro-lock shockers, hammer pipes, and the multi-tool.
  • 'Chemical' listed drugs and health items such as the psychotropic syringe and first aid kit.
• The books 'Engineer' and 'Chemist' allow the player to craft items without requiring a Workbench or Chemistry Set. It should be noted that these books only appear for Arthur and not for Sally or Ollie.
