Hero's Hammer

Hero's Hammer is a highly creative physics-based puzzle game that borrows the deeply satisfying "light reflection" mechanics and turns them into a brutal, monster-smashing adventure! You play as a hero wielding a mighty hammer (think Thor!), and your goal is to wipe out the stone golems scattered across the map.

However, you can't just throw it in a straight line. You must command a squad of shield-bearing soldiers, rotating them to the perfect angles to create a pinball-like trajectory for your hammer. When thrown, the hammer bounces off the shields at sharp 90-degree angles, allowing it to zigzag around indestructible walls and crush enemies hiding in the corners! The controls are incredibly simple, but the level design gets wonderfully complex, offering a fantastic workout for your spatial logic. If you love games like Monument Valley or classic laser-mirror puzzles, Hero's Hammer will instantly hook you!

In Hero's Hammer, your main objective is to completely clear the board of all stone monsters using a single throw! You must carefully click and rotate the shield soldiers to build a continuous, deflecting flight path. Once everything is angled perfectly, launch the hammer and watch it ricochet around the map, crushing every enemy in its path!

🎮 Basic Controls

Your entire focus is manipulating the environment so your thrown weapon hits the targets. Keep these mechanics in mind:

• The Hero: Click on the hero to rotate him 90 degrees, changing the direction he is facing. Click the "Battle" button to throw the hammer. The hammer always flies in a perfectly straight line.

• The Shields: Whenever the flying hammer strikes a soldier's shield, it acts like a mirror, cleanly deflecting the hammer's trajectory by exactly 90 degrees.

• Adjusting Angles: You can click on any shield soldier on the map to rotate them 90 degrees clockwise. You must tweak their facings until they form the perfect bouncy path.

🏆 Level Mechanics

You only beat the level if your hammer successfully smashes every single stone monster on the board before flying off into the void.

• While early levels only have one monster, later stages will feature multiple targets. You'll need to set up crazy trick shots where the hammer bounces off four different shields to crush three monsters in one throw.

• There are zero move limits and no game overs! If your throw misses, the hammer simply returns to you, and you can endlessly tweak the shields and try again.

• As you dive deeper, you'll encounter unmovable brick walls, incredibly narrow corridors, and puzzles requiring massive multi-bounce chain reactions.

⌨️ Game Controls

Mouse Click: Click the characters to rotate them, and click "Battle" to throw.

How do I control where the hammer goes?

Once thrown, the hammer flies straight. You can only control its path by setting up the "mirrors" beforehand. Click on the shield soldiers to rotate them. When the hammer hits the flat side of their shield, it bounces off at a 90-degree angle toward a new direction.

Do I need to hit the monsters in a specific order?

Usually, no. As long as your single throw manages to ricochet around and hit every monster on the screen, you win. However, the physical layout of the walls and shields often means there is only one mathematically possible path that hits them all.

Can the shields be used to squish monsters or block the hammer?

No, the shields are purely stationary reflection tools. They cannot hurt the monsters, and they don't "stop" the hammer—they only redirect its momentum. Your only job is to angle them correctly to guide the weapon.
