    With over 100+ hours and counting on Steam this game made it to my favorite game. I may have not beaten every boss or explored every biome but jesus christ this is amazing.

    If you like Minecraft, then you'll love terraria. this game is packed to the brim with stuff to discover.

Now i've been playing minecraft since 2014 and I have a huge amount of nostalgia for that game. But this game has so many weapons, so many bosses, so many references. I mean hell, theres even a creeper costume in the game. I highly recommend terraria if you haven't played it already. the start might seem a bit slow but after about an hour of play time it gets addicting. Expand

    This is sure the best game you can buy for $10 (or equivalent for your country/region). Been playing the game since the march of 2012 year, still a huge fan of this game. In my opinion, Terraria is one of the best indie games ever released.

    It is now 2023 and this game still retains the same charm as when the game was released in 2011. Truly an immortal monument of the gaming world. One of the best sandbox and adventure games I have ever played, it will definitely live on in my heart as well as in the hearts of other players and it will certainly continue to attract more players in the future.

    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.

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

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

    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.

    Best 10 bucks you can spend on entertainment. The game feels endless at the beginning, and you can explore and discover new things even after hundreds of hours of gameplay. Be sure to have the wiki ready when playing.

    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.

    An amazing platformer sandbox game that is just really fun, but can get repetitive, when that happens, there comes special seeds and servers! Seeds like ftw or gfb make the game much harder, because after some time even master mode will be ez for u. Servers bring variety and they have minigames!

    This is always a game I can go back to whenever I run out of options to play or have nothing better to do. There is just so much in this world that makes it so magical and why it made so many of us fall in love with the game.

    Huge props to the developers and the amazing community.

    This game is great fun for playing by your self and playing with friends.

    The game i also has a criminally low price so there really is no excuse not to buy it.

    Incredible game.
    The replayability of this game is absolutely astounding. I have dumped more than a thousand hours and I still find myself coming back to it time and time again. The music, the atmosphere and the bosses is fine tuned to perfection. Only bad part is the end game and potentially the very start of your journey when you are very weak.

    a good game that I dare say is more fun than Minecraft, more content, more hours of gameplay and so on. And people who say it is a copy of Minecraft or that it is Minecraft in 2D makes no sense because it is a survival game and all **** games are the same. And the mod community makes the game look like Terraria 2, putting in a gigantic amount of weapons, armor, bosses, npc and etc.

    Singlehandedly the best game of all time. Made in 2011, runs on anything, still holds up great today. The only reason I would not recommend this to someone is if they just don't enjoy the genre. With crossplay hopefully coming around the corner, you will be able to play with friends regardless of platform. Just an objective 10/10, worth every penny.

    This this the most underrated game of all time. Everything about this game is amazing. The weapons are so interesting and fun to use. The bosses arent too hard but have a very cool design. The NPCs are also very cool and give the game a lot of personality. The four different weapon classes are all viable and all have strengths and weaknesses which make the game extremely replayable.

    The only game I could ever call a 10/10. Beautifully designed with something for everyone. Great sandbox elements, the exploration is fun, and the bosses are both engaging and difficult. The addition of Journey Mode in 1.4 removed my only real gripe with the game, and I can say with certainty this is the best video game ever made.

    One of the greatest 2D This game has had my interest for some time. This game is incredible. It takes the building and mining of Minecraft and puts it together with the equipment, combat, looting, and dungeon crawling of a sidescrolling action RPG. Don't listen to the people who give it negative score

    Terraria is just a perfect game. It makes a lot of fun. You can build houses, fight monsters and bosses, and events like the solar eclipse add even more variety. There is also a multiplayer!

    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.
