Some NPCs can be acquired by finding them throughout the world and will then reside in player-created houses after being rescued. Fishing is not a necessary aspect for in-game progression but can be useful to obtain specific items early in a world.īy completing specific goals, such as defeating a boss or obtaining a certain item, players can attract NPCs to occupy structures or rooms they have built, such as a merchant, nurse, or wizard. Different items can be caught by fishing in different biomes and during different times of day. Other than event battles and boss fights, many exclusive items can only be obtained through fishing. Terraria also adjusts gameplay based on the time of year a player is playing, for example, in December the Santa Clause NPC will arrive but he only stays from December 15 – December 31. Events are not tied to in-game progression except for the Celestial Pillars just before the final boss. Events can also be summoned during the right criteria using certain items. Events occur when special criteria is met such as time of day or in-game progress. Like bosses, players can battle special enemies and mini bosses during events. Defeating a certain one advances the game into "hardmode", which adds many new enemies throughout the world, as well as new NPCs and items. The defeat of these bosses is directly tied to in-game progression, save for a few optional bosses. Bosses are summoned by using certain items or when certain criteria are met. The player may also battle bosses that utilize a number of different combat mechanics and can drop rare items. The player can fight against enemies with swords, flails, bows, guns, magic spells, whips, yoyos and summoned minions. The player can encounter many different types of enemies in Terraria, the occurrence of which depends on several factors including time, location, and random events. Much like most Terraria items, armor and accessories can both be crafted, found around the world, and obtained from defeating bosses. Characters have three inventory slots for armor to be equipped, and five inventory slots for various accessories to provide a boost to a player’s statistics, such as wings or water walking boots. Along with that, players can obtain vanity items that can be equipped for looks, and dyes to change the color or equipped armor or accessories.
Players have the option to customize their characters look when creating a new character, and in-game by visiting the Stylist NPC or the Clothier NPC. Several advanced items in Terraria require multiple crafting operations where the product of one recipe is used as an ingredient for another.
For example, tables or other items can be crafted at a workbench, bars can be smelted from ore at a furnace, and armor can be crafted at an anvil. The player uses resources to craft new items and equipment at an appropriate crafting station for that recipe. Some resources may only be found in certain areas of the map, stored in common and rare containers, or dropped by certain enemies. The player begins with low health and mana, which can be increased by finding certain items. Many resources, such as metal ores, can be found while exploring caves. The game's world is made up of several layers of tiles that the player can interact with and modify. The game starts in a procedurally generated world, with players starting out with a few basic tools and a non-player character (NPC) guide to get them started. The cult kidnapped the Mechanic and Old Man to bring back Cthulhu, and have almost succeeded. To this day, a lunatic cult in the Dungeon exists to bring back Cthulhu. Cthulhu then retreated to the far side of the moon. While unable to destroy him, they stopped his ability to rain destruction by ripping out its eyes, brain, and part of its skeleton.
Eventually, Dryads arrived to stop Cthulhu. Eventually, a creature named Cthulhu with immeasurable power arrived to rain destruction upon the world. Īccording to the game lore (Released on the 8th anniversary of Terraria's release), the World of Terraria was a world of peace that the gods created to grant fairness to each being.
