“Basically 2D Minecraft, but with eldritch deities and golf. 10/10”
“Worth every year of waiting — 10/10 I've wanted to play Terraria since I was a kid. Finally got my hands on it for free and oh my god, it did NOT disappoint. There's something extra special about playing a game you've…”
“If you think this is just a 2D minecraft, prepare to be surprised. Yes, it's a 2D voxel game. It's also a Lovecraftian bullet hell RPG crafting platformer.”

“I picked up Terraria around 2013–2014 for roughly €15, and even back then it already felt like great value. There were a handful of bosses, and the Hardmode update was on the way, promising to significantly expand the…”

“Great game overall, it's just sad that when you nearly complete the game it becomes boring but when you start the game it is very fun to play, I would suggest playing with friends, it makes this game funnier.”

“Ever since i downloaded Terraria, i feel my life has become better than ever. Terraria isn't just a game, but a lesson. A lesson that has taught me that everything you do is a step that leads you to higher heights. At…”
“I have way more playtime on my switch because this game is the best. This game is so good if far surpasses Minecraft, no I'm not hating on Minecraft as I love Minecraft however Terraira is so good. This game has…”
“Terraria is a game that I had not played much as a kid. I had always preferred Minecraft for its implementation of the 3rd dimension, and never gave Terraria much thought. This game is truly a masterpiece, unique and…”

“This game blows your mind several times, and has near-endless potential for niche playstyles, especially when you consider the abundant mods to try after finishing the base game. Just uh... make sure to actually talk to…”
“Originally started playing Terraria on the mobile version around 2017-2018? Let's just say I've been playing for a little bit. 2000+ hours across I-Pad, an old steam account and now this steam account (although…”
“If I could only play one game for the rest of my life, this would be it without any doubt, and I'd go as far as to say that the tiny price tag this game asks for is the best £8 I've ever spent on anything. This game…”

“I personally dont like the game, I can see why people might, but the game simply isn't my kind of game. I find the game rather confusing, my main reason for this being an utter lack of direction, as well as many things…”
“It's a fun game but I gave up after reaching hardmode mainly because I can't deal with the corruption.”
“Loved this game for the longest time since I first started playing, still have yet to collect all the achievements and I've got plenty hours, not for the weak when modded but honestly if you can pick it up you'll really…”

“I really wanted to enjoy this game, but I instead was incredibly frustrated and then disappointed. Probably the biggest thing that bothered me is how often I had to or was encouraged to by others to look up the wiki. It…”
“Amazing game. The gameplay is very free for the player, the bosses and progression are not always obvious, but not difficult or boring to figure all out or complete. The building aspect of the game is heavily supported…”
“1 TIP: Dont rush the game. Faster you try to beat it, more u will regret later. i wish i could experience this for the first time again.”

“i had a really hard time getting into this game for years; i had preconceived notions that it was similar to minecraft or any other crafting + survival game, but i was kinda dead wrong. there are so many facets to this game that make it both a steep learning curve (in my…”
— a player, Steam review · 11 hrs played“If you think Terraria is just "2D Minecraft," you are missing out on one of the greatest gaming experiences ever created. I went in expecting a simple sandbox game and ended up sinking countless hours into an incredibly deep, action-packed adventure. The core gameplay loop of…”

A forever game you can play at any point in your life and it will be not just good, but awesome and probably better because the devs are always working on it. the seer variety of things to loot, to do, to craft, to fight and to find is mind boggling.…”
