Sticks are a resource item found in Stranded Deep. Being a basic resource, sticks are considered a crucial material for many recipes.
Obtaining[]
Wood Sticks can be found laying around on islands if one does not have access to a cutting tool of any kind. Alternatively, one can acquire sticks from chopping up wood logs with any cutting tool, such as a crude axe or by simply cutting down ficus trees and pine saplings. Another method is by chopping up the driftwood piles.
Like some other resources and items, such as clay and rocks, the number of available sticks on an island is finite, meaning the player can completely exhaust their supply if they craft too many items; at this point, the player will then need to traverse neighboring islands in order to find additional resources.

Trivia[]
- In earlier stages of the game, there used to be a separate type of sticks - driftwood sticks, it was later removed/combined with wood stick. This was most likely because the player would need two types of sticks for one thing, which could cause frustration.
