You can zoom out for a better look at your surroundings and the PS4’s higher resolution graphics help a little here but it doesn’t make a huge difference. The worlds are bigger (although I prefer to play in the smallest world) but I can’t claim the graphics seem any better.

The PS4 doesn’t add much to the formula though. It’s a fairly up to date patch, so there are a ton of items that weren’t in the vanilla console version from a couple of years back and so I’m enjoying exploring that aspect of it. Now I love Terraria – having spent a hundred or so hours with the Xbox 360 version – and this version doesn’t add anything to the previous generation console versions. Making items effectively upgrades your character and before long you can have wings, ninja climbing gear, powerful weapons and all sorts of other fancy items and it’s in this element of the game that you get the addictiveness.

The complexity comes from the sheer number of items in the game and these days, after many patches to the original PC version, there are a ton of things to find and make. You’re either walking, jumping, fighting, digging or building and all these elements in themselves are pretty straightforward. There’s a nice sense of progression to that and it’s nice to have something to work for as you play but also you can just meander about if you so choose. Everything is based around getting yourself in a position to summon, and defeat, the next boss and Terraria has several of those. For a game based on sprawling exploration, there’s also a linear thread that runs through Terraria. Indeed it’s that purposeful approach that permeates the whole game. Sure, you can make massive, ornate castles if you choose but Terraria works best when you are making practical structures that serve a purpose. Out of necessity, your first job is to build a house – not for night time survival but rather to attract NPCs to your house that act as merchants – and as you go along, you keep adding to it. Where Minecraft‘s creative element is all about massive structures that look great in the game’s third person viewpoint, Terraria is a tad more practical. Viewed from a side-on 2D perspective, the game’s simple graphics and design allow for mass exploration but also some creativity. There’s a day/night cycle with zombies plaguing you after dusk and the depths bring tougher enemies but richer rewards. You play as an explorer who has to dig through dirt and stone in order to find precious resources with which you can build better equipment in order to be able to dig through tougher substances. It certainly shares a lot of similar gameplay elements. When Terraria arrived in 2011, it was easy to write it off as just a 2D Minecraft clone and on the face of it, that’s a fair conclusion.
