Hammer Time! – Family Game Review
Hammer Time! is a Family/Casual game from NextGen Reality Pty. Ltd., first launched in 16th December 2015.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 195+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Hammer Time! Stand Out
Look out, the castle is under attack! If only we'd built a giant hammer at the front gate. Oh wait, we did. It's HAMMER TIME!
Your mission: fend off an onslaught of angry boulders with well-timed swings of your hammer. The longer you survive, the higher your score. It sounds simple, but when the action heats up and the boulders are rolling in thick and fast, one wrong swing of your hammer can mean the difference between glory and destruction.
You can also unlock dozens of different hammers to help you in your quest for leaderboard domination, from the mighty Mjölnir, hammer of the Gods, to… a prosthetic leg (no it's not technically a hammer, but it gets the job done.)
Take a swing at the addictive arcade action of HAMMER TIME!
This Family game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

This game is awesome only that so many rocks that we cant get all of them.
Im so glad we have the best game ever it is so amazing it xplods our mind always makes our world a perfect man.
This game is really fun when we are board.
This is a fun, addicting little game.
This game is really intense and also very creative we love everything about it. We hope you make a lot more games as much as fun as this one was!! Thank you for creating this game u am in love… We would recommend this game to literally EVERYONE!!!! Thank you again! Please make more game as great as this.
We like the game and its a little hard but, its a good game.
This game is fun but it will need challenges Online and more like other games have. We like it but it's not on our top 5.
Not too hard; fun to collect hammers. Will need new challenges, though.
Just getting a feel for the timing. Fun. Won't be playing this game a year from now. It is fun right now.
This is a very fun gam but needs to fix up some of the lag.
We think it's a great game accept its really hard to get new hammers also the format is kinda wierd.
Stupid it's just an app that's trying to get money from you for "cool" hammers it's jut a cheap game made in a day that's trying to make money off you.
Was a great game. Nearly unplayable after the latest updates. Total shame.
This game was good before the updates, if you stack up a bunch of balls then smash em all off at once the counter won't count even half of them… This game is obviously rigged to bait you into buying bombs.
Way to contribute to the dumbing down of our children. There is ZERO point to this "game." There's ZERO point to "collecting" hammers as they don't do anything that the normal hammer doesn't do. We feel like someone came up with this and wrote the code while taking a morning dump, which is exactly what it turned out to be. Stop making stupid ad stream "games." we have several free2play games that make very nice use of ads that aren't mandatory to play the game but give you a slight edge for watching an OCCASIONAL ad. We've watched 10 ads in 6 minutes just to play this.
Good game. Highly recommended for a time passer.
Kicsit unalomas de el lehet vele hlyskedni.
Awesome game for passing the time.
We love the game it deserves five stars because it is pure awesome.
Easy to jump into if you're looking to waste a couple of minutes. Fun enough to waste hours on.
This is probs one of the best game we've EVER played. It is unusually AWESOME.
We had to tap cancel and tap write a review a second time to type this. But, that is the first technical problem we've had with this game. Fun & easy if that's what ur looking for u'll love this.
Need some improvements one of them is the little balls need to slow down.
This game is by far the most gangster game on the App Store.
We love this game we just sit and hammer the balls if u know what we mean.
Fun game that is challenging and doesn't drain your wallet.
We love this thing it's a stress reliever.
We like this game and find it addictive after awhile tho it can get boring but we love how it requires precise timing and is a skill based game we hope you guys add more modes and different shapes.
This game gets our fcking dck so rock hard due to the fact it reminds us of the hookers we hire to hit our balls with hammers.
This is a really good game this is a successful and fun and entertaining game.
Really easy to understand and play.
This game is awesome because we love castles and guitars and staffs.
We like this game because we can play it when we're not connected to the Internet and it makes us want to keep beating our high score.
Cool as unique gameplay. And it's free.
This game is amazing for killing time. Download it and see for yourself. It won't disappoint.
This game is really good you can collect stuff and have fun so this is the game.
This game is a one if a kind game because it's awesome and we hope you have time to play this game.
We do really like this game but we wish it would say like the rarity of the hammer or how strong it is and its stats sorry if it does already say that but if it doesn't it would be awesome to do that.
More levels or balls with abilities and challenges would be cool.
It's a very fun game but the reaction time for your "hammer" could be a lot better.
Great game could use an upgrade chart for more fun and better play but all around fun.
Ads are bit annoying but a great time killer.
Fun little game to kill time with and upgrades are easy to earn.
Muy entretenido ideal para pasar el momento.
Good fun game for a time waster.
This game is pretty fun and challenging at time… Give it a try.
