I enjoy really the early game exploring, and the small progression you make.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The building is great if that's your thing, the combat is genuinely satisfying, and playing with friends is some of the most fun I've had in co-op.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I like the choices you can make for yourself, do i wanna be melee or summoner, do i want to use this or this weapon?
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Once you get to know the game a little, I suggest to at least try to play on Expert Mode (seriously, Expert feels like this is the intended difficulty to experience the game), bump it up to Master Mode for some tough Boss fights, where build and/or game knowledge really do matter sometimes or even go out of your way and throw in the For The Worthy seed.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Whether you are grinding solo or playing completely chaotic multiplayer with friends, Terraria is an absolute must-play.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The pixel-art style may look simple, but the world is packed with detail and personality.
