1. Earth + Wind = DustBoth Earth and Wind come straight from your starting elements — craft Dust first, everything else in this chain depends on it.
2. Dust + Water = MudMud is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.
3. Fire + Mud = BrickIf you already made Brick in an earlier session you can skip this one and move on.
4. Fire + Wind = SmokeOne quick craft for Smoke: drag Fire onto Wind and keep the result for the chain.
5. Smoke + Wind = CloudCloud is only needed as an ingredient — make it once, don't farm extra copies.
6. Brick + Cloud = CastleCastle is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.

Why this is the cheapest path to Samurai

We rank every known recipe for Samurai by total crafts from the four starting elements, not just by the final combination. The two direct ingredients — Castle and Sushi — cost 7 and 5 crafts to build from scratch, which is why the whole chain above needs only 11 crafts. The alternatives in the table below are ranked the same way: their "approx. cost" is the pricier ingredient plus one, so you can see at a glance which route actually saves you crafts — and which ones quietly waste five.

What can you make with Samurai?

Samurai is a busy ingredient. In the community dataset it shows up in dozens of downstream recipes: pair it with Lava and you get Volcano; pair it with Geyser and you get Volcano; pair it with Dragon Egg and you get Dragon; pair it with Dragon Fire and you get Dragon; pair it with Moonflower and you get Moon; pair it with Apollo and you get Sun. Crafted items are never consumed, so one copy keeps working.

Tips for crafting Samurai

• Craft in one sitting. The 11-craft chain for Samurai takes under two minutes once you know the route — the list above is already in dependency order, so just go top to bottom.
• Reuse your inventory. If you've played before you probably own the early intermediates (like Mud) already — skip straight to the first step you can't do.
• Missing an ingredient? Check the alternatives table — e.g. Dandelion + Japan also produces Samurai if that route fits your inventory better.
