Terraria: Journey's End

Released

Release Date: May 16, 2011

LAN

A sandbox platform game by indie studio Re-Logic, sometimes called the 2D version of the popular Minecraft. There is no set goal; your task is basically to shape the randomly-generated world around you. At first you only have a few basic tools, which allow you to dig and find resources, chop wood, and create simple structures.

Terraria is a 2D platformer, in which the players can freely modify the world around them. This game from the indie developer Re-Logic is sometimes referred to as "2D Minecraft" since it lets you influence your environment in a similar manner.

The game sends us to a 2D land, giving us a few basic tools to begin with. From that moment on, we have only ourselves and our ingenuity to rely upon. We can dig in the ground, searching for resources, plant vegetation, discover new locations, fight various enemies, create objects and even build our own strongholds and houses. Impressive magnitude of possibilities and dangers makes each playthrough a different experience, because the world is created by the player.

The world of Terraria is randomly generated – players will never visit the exact same location twice. Almost all elements of the environment are fully destructible and removable – it's a way for us to gather the materials needed to build things, and also how we shape the landscape. While travelling the world, we have to to protect ourselves from numerous enemies. The same goes for the weapons – we craft our weapons ourselves, and we have many options to choose from. We can use swords, rifles, grenades and dozens of other imaginative gadgets to defeat goblins, flying eyeballs or other wicked creatures.

COGconnected: 84 / 100 by Daniel Kozlowski

It offers a huge amount of bosses, items, and collectables, and couch co-op to boot. If you like Minecraft or anything of the sort, Terraria is definitely a game worth a look or two.

God is a Geek: 8.5 / 10 by Mick Fraser

Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Marcel van Duyn

As you may have expected, the Wii U version of the game is quite the improvement over the 3DS release, featuring more content, more features and better overall performance. If you have both a 3DS and Wii U and were patient enough to wait and see how this version turned out, then let it be known that this is definately the better release. If you're looking for a compelling sandbox-style game with tons to do and optional online co-op, look no further - you've found it.
