Guide: How to Get Tools in Foundation

In Foundation, tools are crucial to construction and production. But in the early stages of the game, your villagers seem to live in a world of "no tools, only atmosphere". Here is how to get the tool.

Method 1: Early game trade acquisition tools

At the beginning, your only way is to trade - because the blacksmith doesn't trust your small village yet.

• Open the Trade menu (located in the Economy tab).
• Find a trading partner for selling tools (not every trader sells them).
• Set the tool to "Buy to" a certain quantity so you can avoid using the tool halfway through the project.

Method 2: Unlock the Blacksmith Shop in the mid-term game

Once your town reaches 20 civilians, your village will eventually learn the ancient skills of making tools.

• Build a blacksmith shop (obviously).
• The blacksmith shop needs iron, coal and workers – so make sure you have these resources.
• Now you can make your own tools and no longer rely on overpriced traders.

Uses of tools

• Buildings – Buildings do not appear out of thin air.
• Production Chain – Some buildings and industries need tools to operate.

Summarize

At first you have to beg, buy, or barter to get the tools, but once your village has upgraded, you can start producing the tools yourself. Until then, keep trading and try to avoid making your villagers wonder why they are still using sticks and hope rather than real tools.
