The Wish Machine in Once Human functions with a Gacha mechanic. It allows you to spend an in-game currency called Starchrom to get a random reward from a pool of items. There are 5 types of ingredients that you will need to craft this machine and in this guide, we will take a look at how to unlock and use this device.
How to Craft Wish Machine in Once Human
You can unlock the Wish Machine blueprint through the Cradle > Logistics tab using 3 Ciphers and 200 Energy Link. If you’re short of Energy Links, these Once Human codes may come in handy.
Here’s the cost to build the Wish Machine:
- 25x Copper Ingots: You can convert Copper Ore to ingots via the Furnace.
- 10x Rusted Parts: When you collect junk items while exploring the world, you can put them through a Disassembly Bench and potentially find Rusted Parts from them.
- 5x Metal Scraps: Similar to Standard Parts, you can get Metal Scraps when you disassemble materials in via the bench.
- 3x Rubber: Rubber is also one of the disassembled materials you can get in the game.
- 5x Glass: Players can get glass at the Furnace if you have 3x Gravel and 1x Charcoal.
