# Tools

Characters must use Tools to do working tasks:

1. **Axe** to chop
2. **Shovel** to explore the Northern Region, Machete to explore the Jungle, Swin Fin to explore the ocean and Desert Binoculars to explore the Desert.
3. **Pickaxe** to mine
4. **Rake** to harvest
5. **Fishing Rod** to fish

Players can craft tools using ZBW, Steel, Aluminum/Bronze ingots, and/or Fabric.

Tools can be upgraded to higher levels to unlock tasks with better odds of finding rare items. Check the requirements on the next page.

PS: expired tools (those with an expiration date on the NFT attribute) can be exchanged to a valid tool at Downtown->Craft house->Old Tools Replacement. You have to replace it only once.
