Hunting
Dinkum also has an action in which you have to fight various animals on the island. You cannot defeat the animals with your bare hands. You’ll need weapons that are used for hunting and you’ll be able to defend and defeat the animals.

Only the Basic Axe is a tool that you can buy but you wouldn’t be able to defend yourself with a tool.
