Early Access Review
It is pretty good. I am a big fan of Terraria having played over 1,000 hours of it across two accounts and am also a big fan of city/colony builders having played dozens of them. I hate to compare it like this but this is very much a top down Terraria combined with Rimworld. What is great about this game as a city builder is that you are not pushed forward by some distant goal set at the end of the technology tree but by your character's gear progression and the next boss. You are expanding your colony's abilities to meet these goals. I never thought I wanted the NPCs in Terraria to do more than sit around and sell stuff until I had 10 human shaped mules organizing my chests for me. This is also as far as I am aware one of the only city builders that can be played in multiplayer.

The game is easily worth the 10 dollars and especially the 5 I played for it. Its' a good deal for what you are getting from what appears to be a passionate developer. As far as I am aware the game is done but in Early Access only to expand what is available. Which as much as I like the game it is needed. I wouldn't expect it to but Terraria has much more content after a decade of updates obviously. But this game ends up having about as much content as pre-hardmode Terraria.
