What to know
- You must build a workbench before you can craft a hammer.
- The workbench is made from 4 tree trunks and 3 stones in pocket crafting.
- A crude hammer requires 2 rubble, 3 plant fibers, and 3 sticks.
- Once crafted, the hammer is used mainly for building and changing block variants.
In Hytale, the Hammer is a basic building tool that lets you modify placed blocks (like changing their shape or texture). To get one, you follow a simple two‑step process: first build a workbench, then craft the crude hammer at that workbench.
How to get the required materials
Before crafting a hammer, gather these basic resources:
- Tree trunks – Chop any tree to collect logs; you’ll need 4 for the workbench.
- Stones & Rubble – Break stone blocks to get stones and rubble automatically.
- Plant fibers – Harvest from tall grass or similar plants.
- Sticks – Collect by breaking small branches or saplings.

The Workbench is required to unlock the hammer recipe, so you must build it first. To craft a workbench in Hytale, open your pocket crafting menu (Tab), select the workbench recipe, and ensure you have x4 tree trunks and x3 stones. Click “Craft,” then place the workbench on a flat, accessible spot in the world. Approach it and press F (or your interact key) to open its crafting interface.

How to use the Hammer in Hytale
Once you have the crude hammer, it’s mainly used for building and adjusting placed blocks.
- Place any block (like stone, wood, etc.) in the world.
- Select the hammer in your hotbar and hit the placed block.
- Each hit cycles the block through different shapes and textures (variants).
This lets you quickly change how walls, floors, and other structures look without breaking and replacing blocks.
