To be a real hero in Lil Gator Game, you'll need a sword. Or a paintbrush. Or was it a magical wand? No matter your preference, every hero needs a weapon to defeat bad guys and the many hordes of monsters in your way, and - thankfully - there are plenty of weapons to choose from.
To get a weapon, you'll need to complete a variety of tasks set by the friends you meet along the way. Completing the quests set by your new friends will earn you weapons and weapon recipes that you can use to diversify your lil' gator and make them truly unique.
How To Get Weapons
Every weapon on your journey will be available through a quest given to you by a potential friend. There are two ways to earn a weapon:
- Be gifted one for free by completing a quest
- Be given a recipe by completing a quest, from which you can craft your weapon
Once you have a weapon, you should try it on and check out any special effects it may have. The Painter's Brush, for example, may leave paint splatters on things you hit. Altogether, there are 12 weapons to find, and they are:

How To Craft And Change Weapons
To be able to see your weapons, you must press - on your Nintendo Switch controller, or TAB on your PC. This will take you to the items and crafting menu where you will see all of your hats, weapons, shields, and belt items.
Once there, you'll be able to swap weapons by selecting them. Keep in mind that selecting an uncrafted weapon will automatically spend your scraps, and while you can't preview a weapon before purchasing it, you can see a short description and picture of the item, in case you're still unsure about spending the scraps just yet. Once you purchase the weapon, it will be yours forever and you can use it whenever you want.
