    The game takes a long time to load, and freezes for a while whenever it autosaves. I was okay with that until I made it to hard mode, and realized that some of the crafting recipes don't work. I know this is a common glitch in the other console ports, but in those ports there are ways around it.

    A great game with many possibilities. About 20 bosses and a world with underground and sky islands await you. I've already beaten the first boss and am really looking forward to the rest.

    Collect, build, fight and customize your world in Terraria. There are dozens of items, materials, weapons and armors you can craft, as well as dangerous foes you will have to defeat if you want to get the best loot. Go solo or join your friends online and create the world you’ve always wanted to live in.

    I believe 505 Games did an excellent job porting Terraria to the Switch and made the most of the buttons, triggers, and joysticks at their disposal. but after so many hours of playing with mouse and keyboard, it is hard to adjust. Though, being able to play Terraria from the comfort of my bed may be worth the effort.

    That Terraria continues to receive ports to new systems is a testament to the game’s playability. It continues to attract new fans while prompting long-time players to double- and even triple-dip. I don’t think you need the Switch version if you’re already set up on your other gaming system(s) of preference (especially at the current price). If the Switch is your only option, however, it’s good enough for us to offer a recommendation. Let’s just hope the developers manage to dig up and build couch co-op before night falls again.
