Terraria is a 2D sandbox action-adventure game with platforming and role-playing elements. Players create a character and are placed in a procedurally generated world where they mine resources, craft equipment, build structures, and fight enemies. Progression is driven by defeating bosses that unlock new tiers of items, biomes, and challenges. The game features a class system based on equipped gear, NPC recruitment tied to achievements, and supports both single-player and multiplayer modes. Terraria also includes official modding support through the tModLoader framework.

By Alec BennerTerraria: Journey's End is an impressive expansion, and a true love letter to the game and its fans.

By René MolinaCollect, 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.

By Stephen LaGioiaTerraria is as enriching and fun as ever on the Switch.

By Christian OberlyI 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.

By Kirk HinerThat 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.
