Rocks are a resource which can be found in limited amounts on the surface but are unlimited in Caves. They are used to craft several Items and Structures, and can also be Refined to Cut Stones.

Rocks are generally obtained by mining Boulders with a Pickaxe, but they can sometimes be found lying on the ground. They can also be obtained by deconstructing some structures, such as a Fire Pit or a Rundown House, with a Hammer or Deconstruction Staff.

Underground, Rocks can be mined from Stalagmites or dropped by Rock Lobsters. They also fall from the ceiling during Earthquakes. Additionally, they can drop from Relics after smashing them. Slurtles and Snurtles will attempt to eat Rocks, and Slurtles will attack a player holding Rocks if there are no minerals on the ground for them to eat.

In the Reign of Giants DLC, Moleworms will eat any Rocks lying on the ground. However, their Burrows can be used to renew rocks easily, along with other minerals (excluding Marble and Gems). When dug up using a Shovel, the burrow drops either Rocks, Flint, Nitre or a Gold Nugget. The Moleworm residing there goes off to make a new Burrow. Rocks may also be obtained by mining Mini Glaciers.

In the Shipwrecked DLC, Rocks can also be obtained by digging Magma Piles and Sandy Piles. They are renewable if acquired by harvesting Dragoon Eggs, Lava Pools, and Trawl Nets used in Shallow Ocean. Rocks are also obtainable from the Slot Machine as a random drop.

Don't Starve Together

In Don't Starve Together, Mini Glaciers do not drop rocks. Lavae spawned by the Dragonfly can be frozen and killed, resulting in a couple of rocks. Rocks can also be mined from Petrified Trees and Stone Fruits, and drop from Rockjaws.

New boulders will also form from falling meteors during a Meteor shower.

Wilson can craft Rocks with 2 Flint if he had learned the Transmute Ore I skill.
