Discover big bosses, fight zombies, and dig, dig, DIG!

Terraria is the only title on our list that is developed in a 2D pixel art sidescroller format. You begin with only your basic tools and are free to set off mining, chopping trees, and running blindly into monster battles. Terraria has an exciting feature that involves a day and night cycle where by day you mine and build your shelter and by night you are bombarded with hoards of zombies and monsters, similar to Minecraft and 7 Days to Die.

One of the most interesting aspects of Terraria is that it is not all that it seems on the surface, both literally and figuratively. Once you choose to venture underground, you will find yourself in a complex system of caverns hiding secrets, monsters, ores, and new weapons.

Another interesting feature in this game is that the more structures you build, the more you attract NPCs to your settlement. These characters can provide you with special items.

Combat is streamlined and fluid for a 2D sidescroller format. If you enjoy hacking and slashing plenty of pixelated enemies and hilarious boss fights, then you should get digging.

The possibilities of how and where to build your base are endless.

Fight against terrifying bosses buried in the dark!
