Can I somehow get more tools?

I don’t know if I missed it in the instructions but is there any way I am able to get more than just the starting tool? I’ve tried looking but cannot find it anywhere.

I don't know what system you're playing on, but the only way to get more tools is to have others play on your farm, and if you were trying to play solo, then you could just take their starting tools, and then bulldoze their cabin.

If you are on one of the platforms that allows local co-op, then you can do this fairly easily, if not then if you have a nice friend that can help you then cool.

If you are playing on mobile, then you're kinda out of luck :(

Cheers!

If you're looking for upgraded versions of your tools, then go Mining to find some Ore and Clint will visit you the following morning with some instructions and help.

Edit: I didn't see this was in the Board game section, never mind!

The starting tool can be upgraded as an end-of-turn effect (this requires an Ore or, in the Fishing Rod's case, money).

You cannot wield more than one tool (e.g. your farmer cannot have both the Hoe and the Watering Can), though some of the 'classic' tools ended up being profession upgrades (Axe, Scythe, some weapons) or items (Milk Pail)

Oh okay but how does that work if you are playing as a single player in the board game? Doesn’t that mean you can’t (for example you have a fishing rod) mine,water plants, or till the garden?

It is not necessary to have the tool in order to perform an action - meaning you can actually fish without a fishing rod. The tool does not do anything unless you upgrade it, and then you will gain benefits - watering multiple tiles or re-rolling dice while fishing.
When you are playing as a soloplayer you have the oppotunity to gain profession upgrades in any category - meaning even though you have chosen the hoe, you can chose mining upgrades, if you are struggling to descend in the mines :)

You can still perform any action on the board, you just cannot get upgrades for other tools. Think that you'd have all of the basic tools, but you can only upgrade the chosen one.
