60 free Terraria trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
54 free Terraria trivia questions with answers. Terraria was built in a living room on Microsoft XNA, released early because a beta leaked, and has since sold more than 70 million copies while promising a final update at least three times. This quiz covers the story: Andrew Spinks and Re-Logic, the 2012 pause, Journey's End, Labor of Love, the Undeluxe April Fools' build, the crossovers with Don't Starve, Palworld and Dead Cells, the cancelled Otherworld and the sequel that never quite arrives. Then it heads underground: how to summon the Eye of Cthulhu, Skeletron, Queen Bee, the Wall of Flesh, Plantera, Golem, Duke Fishron, the Empress of Light and the Moon Lord, plus Hardmode, the Corruption versus the Crimson, the Hallow, the Guide, the Zenith and the 35 secret seeds. It suits veterans who have beaten Master mode and newcomers who still fear the Dungeon Guardian. Every answer was checked against the Wikipedia articles on Terraria and Re-Logic and against the official Terraria wiki for in-game details, and each question shows the sentence that supports it once you answer.
