This game is just endlessly creative, with all its weapons, enemies and bosses. A sword that summons stars from the sky, a gian worm that splits into other worms, an underground skeleton that sells you yoyo gear, a wall of flesh that shorts lazers and sends out mouths to kill you, a gun that shoots rainbow fireworks, and so much more.

Its hard not to give this game a 11/10, but I stand by my idea there's no perfect game, movie, or show, but my God is it close to that title. This game is constantly fun, its always exciting finding a new chest, beating a boss to unlock a new area, beating an event to get new weapons, and meeting an npc to get new items. Even in the end game, even when I have just about everything id want, its still fun to just hop on and try and do more things, weather building a huge floating biome, a better house for one of my pylon, collecting another dev set, getting my hands on a new music box or finding another enemy for the bestiary.

And all of this is multiplayer, and hell might even become cross platform in the future. So I ask of you, grab a group of friends, set a schedule, and start a terraria world together, and if you ever best the game and want more, you have many mods to choose from. It will be one of the best video game experiences of your life, vanilla or modded, give it a shot.

Terraria is a 2D sandbox game by Re-logic. It is full of content and has almost infinite customization of characters. This customization includes dye, vanity, armor and equipment items. Unlike other sandbox games like Minecraft, characters are separate from worlds.

When you start the game, it drops you into a neat-looking, 16-bit and randomly generated land. You will notice a character walking around your spawn. This is you life-long companion, The Guide. He comes in later, when you have to kill him. Whoops, spoilers! You then continue to making a house, getting people to move in, rage quitting, and fighting giant eyes.

This game varies, as you start with chopping down trees and poking slimes, to fighting amazing battles, and braving the extensive Dungeon.

Overall, this game has no end and infinite possibilities, making it an amazing 10 out of 10 game.

First off this game is NOT for the faint of heart, it will chew you up and spit you out if you are unprepared. Secondly, I wouldnt recommend this to a child under the age of 12, because the parental guide to this game missed some suggestive item names/ more suggestive NPC dialogue, the bosses/creatures can frighten young viewers, and the difficulty of the game could be a bit much for those that dont have a fast reaction time.

Everyone before me has captured the fact that this game is ENDLESS! They also have done a good job at stating the fact that this game is 2D, unlike Minecraft. What they continue to fail to tell you, though, is the amount of items/weapons/armor in this game! After being spawnsd into your world, you have a guide to start things off. Other than giving vague clues as to what to do next, he is pretty much useless (except for later on in the game.) The first thing that is recommended is to build a house before nightfall and get the guide to move in. Afterwards you should go mining, beginning to make your character better by extracting ores/metals and finding life crystals. By the time you get back to the surface, youll be able to have more npc's move in, and more than likely be able to take on your first boss. This is a continuous cycle throughout the game, as defeating bosses progresses the game, making it more and more difficult as more time passes. Bosses also tend to get more difficult as you progress in the game. Remember that guide npc I told you about? SPOILER! He the litteral and metaphorical WALL that blocks your way into the midgame that takes 8+ real world hours to prepare for! You either overprepare for this boss, or you die millions of times trying!! And if you thought that the wall was bad, another spoiler! You now have 3 MECHANICAL bosses you have to defeat! And they are harder versions of bosses you most likely have slain already! The only thing is, you wont be able to use past equipment, cause itd be too weak to even deal substantial damage to them! These bosses especially have the abilitt to scare younger players.

Upgrading your equipment is also a never ending cycle in this game, and can also take the better part of a real life day, as it can get pretty grindy to aquire all of the items youll need for just one recipie. Im looking at you, Ankh Shield! You too, Cellphone! Certain items also have suggestive names, like a spell tome by the name of "Golden Shower," or the bait item "Master Bait" (this is the name of a real life item too, and fisherman actually joke about this quite often.) Female NPC's, if encountered on a Blood Moon in the game, tend to get quite irritable, which happens to be the root of a joke I have with my friends. And I forgot to mention that some of the monsters you find while mining can take you by suprise! The lost girl actually is a Nymph that wants to eat your flesh, and you may become the next poor soul to get turned to stone by Medusa!

Overall, this is a great game, but Id only recommend it to people 12 and older. If you allow your kids to play it, then make sure your with them and make sure you also dk a bit of research on the game itself so then you can help them and explain things as time comes. Heck, this could be a potential bonding experience for you and your kid if done right!

At first, terraria might seem like just another minecraft clone, but it's much more than a pretender.

After a lengthy character customization (with 42 haircuts! 35 of which I don't use), the world dumps into a seemingly peaceful world, armed with a short sword; pickaxe and an axe. If in any case you a doubt or two you're in luck! A guide is here to help you... who doesn't give any useful or at least coherent advice, luckily there's the wiki guide.From that point on you are to explore, build, venture and fight you're way through this new place you now must call home.

Terraria gives the appearance of a 2D adventure retro game; electronic old-fashioned music and blocky textures give an immediate sense of profound nostalgia to any childhood arcade gamer.

The sheer amount of weapons, crafting recipes and materials may be overwhelming at times; with each update including more and more to do and explore; events, bosses and advanced weapon and armor crafting all come in the package.

So why do I think it's great? It's more direct sense of adventure and objectives give it an edge with the casual gamer against games more focused in building and creative indulgence. The variety of mobs and even greater of weapons to defeat them give a rare sense of freedom to use whatever weapon fits your desires. A game of such depth offers many ways to play, you can be a high DPS mage or a high armor tank. whatever your style is; terraria makes sure you don't miss out.

Terraria is a vast and deeper game that you could have ever though of, setting itself apart with every slash of your swords towards the end. It takes every best bit of what makes a genre great and mashed it into a 2D sandbox of everlasting fun. Terraria proves it doesn't need a massive community that provides mods and servers to make a game good, it's single player quality is enough to keep any sandbox enthusiast satisfied. Terraria earns a solid 10/10

Words cannot describe my love for this game.

This video game puts every other form of media to shame. It gives you loads of content, replayability, and hours of fun for a minimum price of $10. Terraria is the perfect example of a game that is too loved by both its creators and its audience to die.

It has great story and lore, being that the race of Dryads once went to war with the Great Cthulhu, tearing off some of his limbs before he returned to the dark side of the Moon. Centuries later, you, the Terrarian, venture into the world of Terraria to stop Cthulhu, or the Moon Lord, as he is titled now, for good.

You begin by slaying said limbs which were torn asunder in the war and defeating the guardian of the world, releasing the ancient spirits of light and dark. You then venture through the Corruption/Crimson, the world evils, and the newfound Hallow to obtain better equipment, begin purifying the world, and face on the Mechanical Bosses.

After these mechanical menaces, you face on Plantera, and afterwards, Golem. Golem's defeat will cause the Lunar Cult to begin their ritual to resummon Cthulhu. When Terrarian puts an end to this, The Lunatic Cultist appears and yet another battle commences. Unfortunately, the Cultist finishes the ritual before their death, and celestial creatures begin evading.

Terrarian must destroy all the Pillars, representing different parts of the Universe, to summon the Moon Lord/Cthulhu, for the final battle.

The Terrarian emerges victorious, and brings peace to Terraria.
