Below is a list of the known inventions created by Eleanor.

* One of Eleanor's inventions is an extendable and retractable metal fist, which she uses as a non-lethal self defense weapon.
* Eleanor invented the camera which takes the photographs in her minigame.
* Another one of her inventions was Solar Glasses, however they were not completed. Their purpose was not specified.
* In an early version of the game, Eleanor was introduced with an automated mining contraption. This was later changed to the retractable fist. However, the mining invention can still be seen near the Letter Mine while traveling.
	+ Later in the storyline, Eleanor uses a wood chopping invention to remove a tree from the tracks. This device looks like the mining contraption with a wood axe instead of a pickaxe attached.
* Eleanor once invented an automated carrier bird that found correct mailboxes based on a red dot pattern. The invention was retired due to complications with polka dot patterned clothing.
* Eleanor brought her Brewmaster invention, which is used to make strong coffee, along with her when she left to travel with Tilly.
* When gathering supplies to repair the damaged dam, Eleanor invents a screw sorting machine called the Screw-sorter 2000.
* Eleanor is seen walking around Cascada Springs while holding up an unknown invention when searching for signs of life.
* During the Mothers Day Event of May 2023, Eleanor is depicted as a little girl with an attempted dish washing invention, which reveals that she has been inventing from a very young age.
* Later in the main storyline, Eleanor invents a noise making machine as a solution to compelling the Skyreapers to leave Cascada Village.

## Speculation

* Eleanor's age is never stated, however her design bears age lines that indicate she is a more mature woman.
* The first time players see Eleanor's gardens compared to later in the game, her crops have grown larger and are still green despite her absence. Since Eleanor has not indicated employing anyone, its possible that she may have automated machines tending to her crops, similarly to the automated mining machine she invented. It could also be surmised that she tends to the plants herself when she and Tilly return to visit her home from time to time. A third option is that the design team simply updated the assets overtime.
* The Engineer Badge depicts gloves like Eleanor's against a magenta similar to her clothing colour and the colour of her original wagon. This could imply that Eleanor is an Engineer, which would be useful knowledge and skills to have, as she is an Inventor.
