Terraria

This game has aged well. You have so much you can do and accomlish with vaying leves of difficulty. There are many things I haven't build yet and Bosses I still have to defeat.

If you're not obsessed with graphics, and enjoy sandbox games, you'll probably like this. If you're a bit OCD, you'll probably be unable to stop playing. The combination of combat, crafting, and exploring is phenomenal. Every time I think I've done everything, I realize I've only scratched the surface. Since I first bought the game, it has had multiple rounds of massive, free content additions, and there's so much in the game now, it's hard to keep up with everything. This will satisfy your urge to explore and just noddle around and build stuff. The boss fights are pretty epic as well. I've been playing this game on and off for more than a decade now, and I still enjoy it. There have been tons of big content updates over the years to keep it fresh and exciting, and the crafting system and other mechanics have improved as well. I'll put it this way: this is my most played-game in a library of more than 800, with nearly 2000 hours played now. It's totally worth it at full price. On sale, it's a no-brainer. Only negative, which is minor, is that I think the game has gotten almost too complex and bloated with content in the decade+ since it came out. But that's manageable, and exploring, building, and battling are all still fun.

To put it simply, you owe it to yourself to get Terraria. It has attractive, simple graphics, great combat, amazing exploration, depth that you never thought possible, the controls are spot on, and it has unlimited building potential. You will find it very easy to spend a lot of hours in Terraria. Get it. It's worth any price.

I've played this game for 3 months straight (@ about a dozen hours per week), which is 4 times longer than any other game I ever played, including Dwarf Fortress (which was my most intense 3 weeks of game playing ever) and Civilization (general record holder for me). Perhaps it's an unusually long game, or I'm getting old, or perhaps it's just really good. About my only complaints are that it has more fighting/grinding that I typically go for, and a number of things are very hard to discover in-game and require reading the wikis to progress at a less than glacial pace. Fun digging, building, fighting, upgrading, and exploring!

Great game! Retro-feel! from the dude who made Super Mario Bros. X! Recommend!! I have the Steam version though, I only have a small GOG library. NOW on GOG Galaxy and Looking for friends! add me if you like Terraria, Star Wars, King's Quest, Wolfenstein, Doom, Retro games and retro-style games, etc.
