How to Collect All Weapons in Lil Gator Game

Lil Gator Game features 12 different weapons for you to collect and craft. While these weapons are all functionally identical (we’re just playing pretend here, after all), some of them do have nifty cosmetic effects. Even the ones that don’t are just plain fun to swing around and smash cardboard constructs with, so try to find them all!

The Stick

The Stick is your starter weapon, given to you as part of Jill’s tutorial quest. Just go up the hill as she directs and pluck it out of the ground.

The Wooden Sword

The Wooden Sword is the weapon you were supposed to get from Jill, but there was a bit of a mix-up. Return to where you found the Stick and talk to Franny, who accidentally took the Wooden Sword and left her Stick behind. She’s happy to let you have both and find a different stick.

The Bug Net

After you meet up with Jill again on the big island, talk to her friend Antone near the campsite. He’ll give you the Bug Net and ask you to catch a Hercules Beetle with it, though you can keep the net afterward.

The Paleolithic Tool

Near where you meet Antone, talk to Susanne. She’ll ask you to visit the beach downstream and retrieve a Beach Rock near Billy the whale. Bring the rock back to Susanne and whack it a few times with your weapon to turn it into the Paleolithic Tool.

The Princess Wand

Across from the old guy’s house near the playground, talk to Tiffany at her tea party. She’ll ask you to smash all the cardboard monsters while leaving her pink cardboard decorations alone. After that, talk to her mom on her phone nearby, then talk to them at the tea party to get the recipe for the Princess Wand, which costs 300 scraps.

The Paintbrush

Up on a cliff overlooking the sea, you’ll find Leeland backed by some cardboard monsters. Destroy a few of them, then talk to him. He’ll be a bit upset that you broke his monsters and ask you how many scraps they dropped. Say 80, and he’ll give you some scraps and the Paintbrush recipe, which costs 400 scraps.

The Cardboard Spear

While helping Avery’s crew, talk to Luisa, the kid sitting on the ground. She tripped and hurt herself, so be nice and comfort her. She’ll give you the Cardboard Spear recipe as thanks, which costs 300 scraps.

The Oversized Pencil

Behind the old guy’s house, you’ll meet Sam. He’ll task you with retrieving his pencil after he throws it. Grab the pencil and bring it back to him three times, and he’ll give you the Oversized Pencil recipe as a reward, which costs 300 scraps.

The Laser Sword

While helping Avery’s crew, their astronaut friend Andromeda will ask you to defeat a few waves of monsters with a provided dart gun. Shoot them all down, and you’ll get a Laser Sword recipe as your prize, which costs 300 scraps.

The Wrench

You can purchase the Wrench from Roy’s Junk 4 Trash stand for 299 scraps.

The Nunchaku

Find the pair of ninja kids at a campsite near where you first arrived on the big island. Talk to them to take their challenge: destroy the five monsters that spawn nearby before time runs out. Succeed, and you’ll be rewarded with the Nunchaku.

The Grabby Hand

You can purchase the Grabby Hand from Roy’s Junk 4 Trash stand for 299 scraps.
