One of the greats crosses a huge milestoneTerraria (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-terraria/) is one of those games that has a simple premise, but it's so well executed, it's secured a spot as one of the best games of all time. I came to know it as sort of a 2D version of Minecraft (although that's something of an oversimplification), and it really gained traction in the mid-2010s when it got picked up by the Let's Play community on YouTube. Terraria is incredibly well-loved to this day, and is now one of the best-reviewed games on Steam. That's because Terraria has surpassed over a million reviews on the platforms, and while it's not the first title to do so, it is the first title with over a million reviews that has also maintained its "overwhelmingly positive" status.
Specifically, those reviews are still 97% positive, with 978,864 positive reviews and 21,444 negative ones. That lands Terraria as the second-best reviewed game on Steam (https://steam250.com/) of all time, after Valve's beloved classic Portal 2. However, it did manage to beat out Stardew Valley, Hades, and Left 4 Dead 2, just to name a few.

Like Minecraft, Terraria's community is still going strong, and its developer Re-Logic is still producing new content for the game (as well as providing quality-of-life updates) over ten years after its release.
The newest update 1.4.4, called the Labor of Love (https://www.nme.com/news/gaming-news/terraria-update-1-4-4-extremely-close-to-being-finished-3281056) update, will be released sometime in late September, and will also be the game's first simultaneous cross-platform launch for both console and PC.
While I did have a brief Minecraft phase, I never did give Terraria a try, even after watching plenty of my favorite YouTubers give it a go back in the day. Based on those overwhelmingly positive reviews, however, it sounds like I have no choice but to give it a try one of these days. Another awesome game to add to the list!
