Gameplay

Adventure

Similar to Minecraft in terms of crafting and mining, Terraria however differs from the first by having a side-scrolling view design, so players can have a full FOV of the screen. By this way, people can even see ores trough dirt or even caves when they come to mine. After having generated a world, players will spawn in the Forest biome, where they can get all the necessary to start their adventure. Near them will spawn the NPC Guide too, who will speak to player about useful advises and will protect them by using a wood bow. While it's not a must, players would be better build houses not only to protect themselves from the fangs of evil zombies and floating eyeballs during night, yet to host other NPCs who will reward players by selling uncommon things, protecting them from menaces or having particular gimmicks. Once players went fairly stronger, they'll be able to fight decently strong bosses who were problematic at the start. Players will start in a Pre-Hardmode difficulty, which has easier enemies and bosses, but less effective loot; they'll be able to start the Hardmode, which has better weapons and more monsters, after defeating the "Wall of Flesh" boss. After the world is turned into Hardmode, it's not possible returning back. At this point players should heavily upgrade themselves with better equipment to fight other bosses and to reach the final boss, the Moon Lord.

Why It Digs, Fights and Loots Hard
