Is Terraria Beautiful?

Terraria has its unique and authentic atmosphere of classic old arcade games with 2D graphics. However, it looks incredibly beautiful. The main attraction is its well-picked color palette, the excitement you feel in each cave you go into. Even the monsters do not look like evil from the first glance. However, you have to be extremely careful with them as they are dangerous. The music adds more points to the whole view. You can feel yourself in some old-fashioned game from your childhood. If you need to lower it down or switch off after several hours in the game, you may do it with a tap.

How Easy is Terraria to Navigate?

Although the graphics look rather simple and primitive, the controls in the game require all your concentration. There are two control panels below. You need to use them together or one by one, depending on the situation. Developers offer to adjust controls up to your preferences, but you will still have to keep up with multitasking. All the instruments you can use can be found at the left corner of your screen. Don’t forget to check out the number of hearts you have left in the upper right corner of your screen. You can use a controller if you have Bluetooth connection and a joystick.

Terraria is an entertaining sandbox game with a bunch of missions and side missions inside. There are underground caves full of treasures and enemies, and multiple worlds you have to explore. The game is not simple, but it is incredibly interesting. If you have a joystick, you can connect it to your phone via Bluetooth for advanced controls. It has simple but attractive graphics and atmospheric soundtracks.
