What is Infinite Craft?
Infinite Craft is a crafting game without a finish line. You begin with four elements, Water, Fire, Wind and Earth, and combine them two at a time to make something new. Fire and Water make Steam. Earth and Wind make Dust. Every result can be combined again, so those four basics gradually turn into planets, animals, food, machines and famous characters.
When you try a pair that nobody has combined before, AI comes up with the result, complete with its own emoji. After that, the same two elements always give the same result, so a recipe that works for one player works for everyone.
The game on this page is the browser version of our mobile app, Infinite Elements – AI Craft, and the same team makes both. One honest note: the original Infinite Craft was created by Neal Agarwal and released on neal.fun on January 31, 2024, and this unofficial fan site is not affiliated with or endorsed by him or neal.fun.
How to play in five steps
- Start with the four elements in your list: Water, Fire, Wind and Earth.
- Drag an element from your list onto the board.
- Drag a second element on top of the first. Use your mouse on a computer, or your finger on a phone or tablet.
- Let go, and the result appears on the board and is added to your list. Fire and Water, for example, give you Steam.
- Keep going with your new elements. Fire and Steam make Engine, and Dust and Earth make Planet.
That's really all there is to it. The full how-to-play guide explains the board, search, resetting and the other settings, and walks you through your first long chain. One tip before you start: whenever you make something new, try it with each of the four basics, because most steps in our guides use at least one of them. Want a goal to aim for?

When you're stuck, or chasing one particular element, these three parts of the site can help:
- Combinations chart: what the nine core elements (Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Volcano, Steam, Lava, Smoke and Engine) make with 141 common elements, checked against this game. It's the quickest way to see your next move.
- How-to-make guides: 107 step-by-step recipes that start from the four basics, such as Human, Life, Time, Dragon, Pikachu and Minecraft.
- Recipe explorer: search about 196,000 elements and 3.4 million known recipes to see how to make something and what it combines into.
In short, the chart is best for one-step ideas, the guides for long chains and the explorer for everything else. Some famous elements are closer than you might think. Dragon takes just three combinations: Earth and Water make Plant, Plant and Water make Swamp, and Fire and Swamp make Dragon. Others, like Pikachu, take eight. Our tips and strategies page explains how to work out longer chains like that on your own.
Play on your phone
This page works in your phone's browser too: just drag elements with your finger. If you'd rather have an app, the game is available as Infinite Elements – AI Craft on the App Store and Google Play. It's the same game you see here, made by the same team, and on the App Store it's rated 4.7 out of 5 from about 16,000 ratings.
Frequently asked questions
Is Infinite Craft free?
Yes. You can play here in your browser for free, with nothing to install. The site is supported by ads, and the guides, chart and recipe explorer are free too.
Is this the original Infinite Craft?
No. The original is Neal Agarwal's game on neal.fun. What you're playing here is our own version, the browser edition of our app, on an unofficial fan site.
Are my discoveries saved?
Yes, in your browser on this device. Clearing your browser's site data deletes them, a private or incognito window usually wipes them when you close it, and a different browser or device keeps its own separate progress.
Why do guides work if the results come from AI?
Because results don't change. Once a pair has been tried, those two elements always give the same result, so the steps in our guides, all checked in the game, give you exactly what they say.
How do I make Human?
Combine Life with Earth. Life takes six combinations of its own, starting with Fire and Fire for Volcano, and the Human guide lists all seven steps in order.
