Why isn't my hammer working in Terraria?

Your hammer isn't working in Terraria because you're likely trying to break natural background walls without an exposed edge, using the wrong hammer (like a Pwnhammer for normal blocks), or encountering bugs; you must break natural walls from the edge, use the right hammer for special blocks (like Pwnhammer for altars), or fix glitches by saving/reloading or beating the Wall of Flesh.

How does a hammer work?

A hammer works by using leverage and mass to concentrate force, acting as a lever that extends your arm to build speed and momentum, with its heavy head delivering a powerful, focused impact when swung, transferring kinetic energy efficiently to drive nails or shape materials.
