Struggling to find worms in Aloft? Whether you’re looking to start farming or just hoard them for fun (no judgment), worms are an essential resource. Here’s a simple guide to help you wriggle your way to success.

Method 1: Poke the Ground

The easiest way to find worms is by using the Stone Dorkip. Head to the Fallen Heights area in the second ring. Look for patches of soil on the ground and start tilling with your Stone Hoe. Worms will occasionally pop out—it’s like treasure hunting but slimier.

Method 2: Use Soil Boxes

If you’re ready for a more sustainable approach, you’ll eventually unlock Soil Boxes. Here’s how they work:

  1. Build Soil Boxes: Unlock and craft these when they become available.

  2. Place Them Near a Compost Bin: Soil boxes need to be placed close to your compost device.

  3. Collect Worms: Each soil box will generate one worm at a time. However, it won’t produce a new worm if one is already sitting there, so be sure to collect them regularly.

Pro Tip: Place multiple soil boxes around your compost bin to create an endless worm farm. It’s like a little worm factory right on your island.

Additional Tips

  • Check the First Biome: In the early days of the game’s EA version, worms were easier to find on islands in the first biome. They seem rarer now, but it’s worth a shot if you’re desperate.

  • Stay Patient: Worms might feel elusive at first, but once you’ve got soil boxes, you’ll never worry about them again.

Why Worms?!

Worms are key for farming and composting. They’re basically the unsung heroes of your island ecosystem, so treat them well. Without worms, your crops will struggle, and your compost bin will feel pretty lonely.

Final Blurb

  1. Use a Stone Hoe to dig worms out of the ground in places like Fallen Heights.

  2. Unlock Soil Boxes for a consistent supply near your compost bin.

  3. Collect and use worms to supercharge your farming efforts.

Now that you know where to find worms, it’s time to get digging (or farming). Happy worm hunting, and may your soil be ever fertile!
