Q: Is this game a copy of Minecraft?

Terraria contains many more monsters, ores, items, materials, and very different concepts.

A: Yes. See monsters for more information.

Q: How do I keep monsters from spawning in my buildings?

Q: Where do I find ____ ore?

A: Underground, with the exception of meteorite ore and demonite. A meteor has to fall for meteorite to appear, and demonite is only found by killing bosses.
