    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is beatiful. With it's variety of guns, accessories, mobs, bosses, biomes... It has different type of classes and every class has it's own weapon and accessories. I played this game for like 400 hours and I am still not bored but the game is not very player friendly because it does not have a tutorial. So you gotta watch videos to understand the game and another thing is items that drop from Moonlord or After-Moonlord craftable items does not make sense because Moonlord is the last boss. So what am I supposed to do with these items if there is no boss stronger than Moonlord? Expand

    Terraria is better than Minecraft.

    (Game) - Terraria in my opinion is one of the best indie games we currently have in the industry made by just a small team, who fully deserve the support of the fans. Despite the style that some may find negative, believe me, give this game a chance, it deserves it. 1.14 would be the last update as they continued to add new content and improvements.

    1.14 would be the last update as they continued to add new content and improvements. Excellent support and attention by the community.

    (Updates I'd like to see)
    (PVP - update)
    A few days ago I finished terraria completely, and I thought that some things still need to be filled in, what if it was possible to invade other players' worlds? Yes, this reminds us of some franchise that we have in the industry, but it wasn't bad at all, in fact it even added something to the pvp mode of the game, of course the combat in that aspect could change, but it would be fun.
    (Industrial Update)
    I think the game should have a slower and more industrial progression, despite being a fantasy RPG game.
    (World)
    When we get to the ocean we might not have a limited world and need a boat to sail to other islands, that would also be quite interesting.

    If I could, I would give Terraria 11/10. One of my favorite games of all time, while I have only 200h in the game I know a guy who spent 4000h just playing Terraria. It's replayability is great, a a million different mods, shoutout to Calamity, Starlight River and Thorium. Soon there will be the 5th update after the "last update ever", so the developers didn't just leave the game.

    Has the greatest progression out of all survival/RPG games out there. The only problem with Terraria is that after you defeat the final boss there is no more progression.

    Terraria is a masterpiece.

    Terraria is an exceptional sandbox game that has captivated players with its boundless creativity, addictive gameplay, and vast exploration. With its charming 2D graphics, extensive world-building mechanics, and a staggering amount of content, Terraria offers an unparalleled experience that keeps players hooked for countless hours of adventure.

    Terraria is an exceptional sandbox game that has captivated players with its boundless creativity, addictive gameplay, and vast exploration. With its charming 2D graphics, extensive world-building mechanics, and a staggering amount of content, Terraria offers an unparalleled experience that keeps players hooked for countless hours of adventure.

    One of the game's greatest strengths is its open-ended nature. From the moment you step into the procedurally generated world of Terraria, you're free to forge your own path. The game seamlessly blends elements of exploration, crafting, combat, and resource management, giving players an incredible amount of freedom to shape and mold their environments to their liking.

    The sheer depth and variety of gameplay mechanics in Terraria are truly impressive. The progression system is well-crafted, offering a satisfying sense of growth as you gather resources, defeat powerful bosses, and unlock new items and abilities. From building elaborate structures and crafting powerful weapons to delving into treacherous underground caverns and battling fearsome creatures, there's always something new and exciting to discover.

    Terraria's multiplayer mode takes the experience to another level. Joining forces with friends or other players online to explore, build, and conquer adds a whole new dimension of enjoyment. Whether you're collaborating on ambitious building projects, engaging in thrilling PvP battles, or simply adventuring together, the cooperative multiplayer aspect enhances the game's longevity and replayability.

    The pixel art style of Terraria is visually appealing, evoking a sense of nostalgia while still maintaining its own unique charm. The vibrant and varied biomes, from lush forests to eerie underground caverns, are filled with imaginative enemies and captivating landscapes. The game's soundtrack complements the gameplay perfectly, setting the mood for each different environment and enhancing the overall immersion.

    While Terraria offers an extraordinary experience, there are a few areas where it falls slightly short. The game's learning curve can be steep at times, especially for newcomers who may find themselves overwhelmed by the depth of its mechanics. Additionally, the absence of a clear tutorial or guidance early on may lead to some confusion. However, once players overcome these initial hurdles, the rewards are well worth it.

    Terraria's dedicated and passionate development team continually updates the game with new content, ensuring that the adventure never grows stale. The regular updates, including major content patches and events, demonstrate the team's commitment to keeping the game fresh and engaging for its dedicated community.

    In conclusion, Terraria is a masterpiece in the sandbox genre, offering an immersive and endlessly enjoyable experience. Its freedom of exploration, engaging gameplay mechanics, and collaborative multiplayer make it a standout title that appeals to a wide range of players. Despite a slight learning curve and initial lack of guidance, Terraria's exceptional depth and constant updates earn it a well-deserved 9/10 rating. Prepare to embark on a journey filled with endless possibilities and unforgettable adventures in the world of Terraria.

    After playing it for 539 hours, I can come to the conclusion that Terraria is my favorite survival sandbox game.

I love Mincraft, Astroneer, and Raft, but nothing can get close to the Terraria games. there's so much replay ability in this game, not every world has every biome, there are SO many different play styles and ways to progress, not to mention the amazing potential for speed running this game has. there's so much charm that Re-Logic didn't need to add, like the NPC dialogue, hundreds of pets, and so many vanity items. Terraria makes every single thing it tries fun, from building the perfect town for your NPCs to building up your weapon collection. every thing about Terraria is damn near perfection, and I feel like I stole it with how low the price point is, yeah, buy this game Expand

    Terraria is a love letter for its fans and gaming in general. Terraria is the first game I've ever bought on Steam, when I was 12 years old, back in 2012, watching some YouTuber talk about it.

    Terraria is a love letter for its fans and gaming in general. Terraria is the first game I've ever bought on Steam, when I was 12 years old, back in 2012, watching some YouTuber talk about it. I've introduced this game to all of my friends, it was the first game I completed with my brother and the first game I played with my wife.
    The game is basically pure gameplay, but, wow, what gameplay! The soul of this game is character progression, and the whole world progressing with you.
    First, you start with the weakest tools and weapons, very weak and without almost any magical aptitude. You are very vulnerable to all enemies and the game is very scary at that point. But quickly you start finding better equipment, you start to increase your health, and you start to become a very powerful being, that has shaped the whole world for its purpose.
    The game is very thrilling, you fight many bosses, each with completely different AIs and strategies to defeat.
    I will forever love Terraia, and I hope the team behind gets all the praise they deserve from the gaming community.

    The best 2D game I will ever play. The game is much more than just 2d Minecraft, actually I prefer Terraria over Minecraft. The game is endless with it's weapons and accessories. You can play the game however you want. The pixel art is good and the soundtrack is amazing! Combat is mostly dodging and shooting but that's not bad at all.

    My personal favorite video game of all time, especially with mods such as calamity. It's actually a little scary how fun it is, it cuts right into that "your succeeding" part of your brain with it's top of the line progression system, and with it's different classes to try it makes for unlimited replayability.

    Great controls, top tier music and really good ideas that blend together for an amazing experience. While it has problems, like when you need to get the hard-mode ores and the grind of a lot of the items can suck my nuts, even though I’m in english class i can say that this is my favorite game of all time.

    Sometimes I believe that Terraria is the closest we will ever come to a perfect video game. It's deceptive simplicity, sense of adventure, diverse combat, and satisfying sense of progression make it a standout among not one; but multiple genres that this game falls into.

It's deceptive simplicity, sense of adventure, diverse combat, and satisfying sense of progression make it a standout among not one; but multiple genres that this game falls into. Normally games that devote themselves to this many mechanics turn out sacrificing some elements of one mechanic in favor of others, or all being relatively average. However Terraria's concept and lengthy history of being supported by developers that so clearly love video games, and love what they are doing means that all of the different elements and mechanics of this game blend seamlessly.

    Terraria is an all time classic, and one that as time goes on only gets better. Play it and thank me later.

    Terraria is one of the best sandbox games. Terraria has some Minecraft spirit, however the focus of the game is on fighting and crafting, so it involves more action. The best way to enjoy Terraria is to play it with a couple of friends on your own server.

    It's a title that will appeal to the adventurer, the explorer and the builder; not to mention those who appreciate a substantial amount of player freedom. If you happen to be all of those things, Terraria is a lightly tarnished treasure.

    A lot of games tried to copy Minecraft – or at least participate from its' success. But this two-dimensional take on the well known formula is the only game that is able to step out of the shadow of the indie phenomenon that inspired it. It leads you into a unique world full of creative magic.
