I started playing Terraria back when it was released in 2011. Its 2020 now (duh, Captain Obvious) and i still play this game, cause it kept to be constantly updated (and that came without any pricing for the DLC's! Not very common nowadays...).

I played as Singleplayer and also with 1-4 Friends at some point. It's good in Singleplayer, but Terraria is AWESOME in Multiplayer.

Terraria is maybe not the game for everyone to play for hundreds of hours, but in my opinion you should definetly give it a try.

Some facts collected today (26.06.2020; Terraria Version 1.4.0.5.)
Terraria has a total of 5.044 Items, followed by a Wiki which currently has 4.104 articles and a total of 44.641 pages!
It may not seem that big at first, but it really is!

Why should you buy Terraria may still ask?

Pros:

• A LOT to explore, even if you have around 100-200 Hours of playtime.
  
• Nice Multiplayer (i have not experienced many bugs at all, especially for the last couple of years)
  
• Options to have a fun time in the game with the newly added "Journey Mode", but also a challenging way of playing in "Master Mode"
  
• You can rush through the game pretty fast, or just enjoy it with a friend on a nice rainy evening playing together.
  
• Just 200MB of Hard Disk Space? Kinda everyone should have this amount of space on thier Hard Disk..
  
• the price with 2,50 bucks is really worth it! (i bought it for 10$ and have to say that also that price is absolutly good for how much i enjoyed the game!).
  
• Personally I really enjoy the Soundtrack!
  
• Terraria also has Mods (Thanks to General ricepudding for reminding me of that!)

Cons:

• Game will not get any more updates (as the Dev's said early 2020 after the 1.4 Patch)
  
• It may not be the prettiest game, because of "just" 2D Graphics.
  
• You will not find all Items for your desired build in one world, so its a bit of trail and error until you get all Items you want (Make Medium to Large Worlds for more Items!)
  
• Addictive!

At some point in 2014 i bought Terraria for a friend for her PS3 and i have to say, that i enjoyed the game much more on PC.
(thats probably mainly due to the fact that i suck with controllers, but whatever...)


It is a awesome game for a small price and a has A LOT to offer. (Did i mention already that there is A LOT to see in this game?)

If you do not have this game alredy in your Library and if you read to this point, you should just stop reading and buy it now!
