When you double-click (or chmod +x and ./Terraria.bin.x86_64 ) version 1.4.4.9, you are not just playing a game about digging for ore and fighting the Moon Lord. You are participating in the last, best hope for indie gaming: a title that is finished, polished, localized, and free from proprietary chains. It runs on the Linux kernel because the developers understood that a game about terraforming a world should run on an operating system that allows you to terraform your computing environment.

: Linux players can use launch options like /glprofile:compatibility /gldevice:OpenGl to significantly improve frame rates on older hardware, sometimes jumping from 20 FPS to over 50 FPS.

10/10 Status: Highly Recommended – Buy it, play it, gift it.
