Grounded: how to get clay

Grounded is a survival game where you and your friends play in a micro-world of insects. Your goal is to survive in this tiny world until you can escape it and find out why you have shrunk. In the meantime, you will need resources to build structures, weapons, armor, and other useful things. One such resource you will need is clay. In this guide, I will show you how to get Clay in Grounded.

How to get clay in Grounded

Clay is a very common but much-needed resource in Grounded. You can do a lot of things with it, and you will also need it to repair items. To get Clay in the game, you will need to find Smooth Stones near ponds and large pools of water in places such as:

  • pond laboratory
  • woodpile
  • flooded area
  • black anthill
  • Pond depths
  • Surroundings of the barn
  • Caves with a pond
  • meadows
  • koi pond

Go to these Smooth Stones and use the Acorn Shovel to smash them. This will give clay. You can speed up the process by getting the Rock Cracker mutation. This allows you to break rocks faster. This becomes an efficient way to obtain clay. This is how you can get Clay in Grounded.

In this game, clay is an important resource, as it is used for various purposes. From building structures like a clay foundation, clay pillar, clay ramp, etc. to utilities like simple beds, cooking, stoves, etc. When you first get clay, it will unlock a bunch of recipes as shown below:

  • clay base
  • clay ramp
  • armor mannequin
  • Wall mount for weapons
  • repair tool

So, if you want to progress quickly in Grounded, I suggest you start Framing this resource. Having clay on demand will be much more convenient than getting it when you need it. If you want it in large quantities, head to the West and East Flood Zones.

It was all about how to get clay in Grounded. I hope this guide has helped you.
