Terraria

[Vast]

This game is fantastic. Its a 2d old school graphics game very similar to Minecraft.

Its soo fun and it even has Multiplayer!

this is the website and its on Steam for 9$.

I like it better than minecraft because it emphasizes adventuring and multiplayer over creation which is Minecrafts specialty. also the difference between 3d (Minecraft) to 2d(Terraria) makes the graphics and gameplay on Terraria much more appealing to me.

Here is a link to a guide

I read that the game is only intersting if you are playing multiplayer. What are your thoughts?

Not true. the game is definitely fun when you play by yourself. Does minecraft have multiplayer?? I dont think it does. This game is a 2d minecraft with an emphasis on adventure and exploration.
It just so happens that its even more fun when playing with someone. Like **** i haven't had this much fun in a while fun. i was playing with a good friend of mine so not sure how randoms are but its up to 8 players.

It does, one of the big draws to it is building a city with friends. Minecraft is also an exploration game as well.

Re: Terraria

Minecraft multiplayer is out of this world fun! Makes the game 10x better/more fun.

Is Terraria's multiplayer all fixed? I remember buying it at release and multiplayer just did not work. Had to set up Hamachi just to get it to run.

You have to know a servers ip address. Which isn't too hard just go to the terraria forums, or if you host just give ur friends the ip.

Don't miss out. Plus this game is constantly getting free new content! I love it compared to the console games now that just come out and thats it.

Re: Terraria

Thanks Vast for putting a good word in for this. Bought it last night and spent about 5 hours playing it.

How do you like it? Its not an easy game to get into, and theres just sooo much content and things to discover but when u get the hang of it, theres no other game on the market like it.

I play multiplayer with my boy and i told him if this game came out in like 94 it would've been my religion. lol

Let me know if you want to play multiplayer sometime or if u have any questions.

The terraria wiki is a valuable tool to newcomers btw.
