Did Terraria or Minecraft come first?
Minecraft took the lead! It was released in 2009, a couple of years before Terraria made its debut in 2011. Minecraft started shaping the sandbox world before Terraria added its own 2D twist to the genre.

Minecraft, no contest. It's like the OG sandbox game. Terraria's cool and all, but Minecraft definitely laid the groundwork.
Minecraft, hands down. Terraria's got its charm, but it's basically the younger sibling here.
Terraria came out in 2011, while Minecraft first hit the scene in 2009. So, Minecraft was first, paving the way for sandbox games. Terraria might not have been the first, but it sure adds its own flavor to the sandbox mix!
