Hammer

The Hammer is a new tool introduced in. Unlike other tools, which come in gold, silver and regular, the Hammer only comes in one style. It is similar in appearance to a Piko Piko hammer, a toy hammer that is played with by children in Japan. It is colored red, with a yellow handle, in keeping with the style of a Piko Piko hammer.

In New Leaf
The hammer is used by the player on Tortimer Island to play the game Hammer Time. The player is given a hammer and must chase a Cornimer remote control car and hit it as many times as possible to earn medals in a certain amount of time. The more times the toy is hit, the more medals the player wins.

The player can keep the hammer, but it fulfils no major purpose, unlike other tools in the series.
