TerraTCG
TerraTCG is a Collectible Card Game built inside of Terraria! Challenge your Town NPCs to intense games of 1v1 card-based combat, grow your collection with booster packs, and experiment with exciting new strategies! The initial set of TerraTCG contains 100 cards, with over 25 NPC decks to duel against!
To begin playing TerraTCG in-game, craft a TerraTCG Deckbox at a workbench using 5 wood. The Deckbox gives access to the Deck Editor. You'll only start with a few cards, but more can be gained by defeating any town NPC in a duel! To kickstart your collection, you can also find a small number of packs scattered in chests in any newly generated world.Talk to the Guide first for a good first opponent, and the option to view an in-game tutorial! Beyond the guide, the following NPCs can all be challenged to a game:
- the Merchant
- the Nurse
- the Arms Dealer
- the Goblin Tinkerer
- the Traveling Merchant
- the Clothier
- the Dryad
- the Nerdy Slime
Ocean Creatures vs Jungle Creatures
Cavern Creatures vs Mushroom Creatures
Grow your Collection!
All 100 TerraTCG cards can be obtained by opening packs rewarded by beating NPCs or bosses in a game! Each pack has a 1-in-15 chance to upgrade a card to a rare foil variant!
Up the Stakes!
Once you've gotten enough practice playing against your Townsfolk, you're ready to challenge the bosses themselves! Beating an NPC's second deck awards you with a "Duel Invitation", an item that can be used in the presence of a boss to start a life-or-death game of TerraTCG! Defeating a boss in a game of TerraTCG will slay the boss and unlock its progress in the world, but losing that game will result in death!
Disclaimer
While the PvE mode of this mod is fully supported in Multiplayer, there is currently no support for
PvP games. Stay tuned for a future update!
