How to get more villagers in Terraria
Getting more villagers in Terraria, or NPCS (Non-Player Characters), is all about meeting their unique needs! Each NPC has specific requirements to move into your world. Make sure you have enough suitable housing - that means a proper room size, a light source, a comfort item (like a chair), and a flat surface item (like a table). For example, the Merchant requires you to have at least 50 silver coins, while the Nurse will appear once you've defeated your first boss. Keep progressing in the game, gathering resources, and building suitable homes to attract more villagers!

Honestly, I just focus on building a bunch of empty houses and let the game do its thing. NPCs will show up when they're ready.
