Create a Free Island

Any player can create their very own Island for free. To do this they must first use their Fishing Rod to fish for Sea Junk and catch a Compass. The player must then take the compass to the Captain in any Hub. He will take you to your very own Island in exchange for the compass!

Every Island starts with 1 fully grown Palm Tree & Sugar Cane, a Wood Axe, and the basic terraformed island featuring 12 blocks of grass, 12 of stone, and 20 blocks of sand.
