Is Terraria cross-platform?
In the world of survival crafting games, a few names always come to mind first. Minecraft is easily the biggest and most popular, but Terraria is arguably the pioneer of the entire genre. It has all the crafting and combat of the former game, but in a 2D pixelated style that gives it a feel all its own. You can fight all kinds of monsters and massive bosses as you craft better gear, or you can play more casually and start a farm to get a more cozy experience like you do with Stardew Valley. However you want to play, Terraria is always more fun with some friends to explore and build by your side. Since this game came out in 2011 when cross-platform games were few and far between, you may be wondering if it has kept up with the times and added this feature.
