You can actually run Terraria on a Chromebook, but it's not super straight-forward since Chrome OS doesn't natively support it. The easiest way is to use the Linux (Beta) feature on your Chromebook, then download and install Steam through Linux. From there, you can purchase and install Terraria just like you would on a Windows or Mac computer. Just make sure your Chromebook meets the game's system requirements!
Terraria on Chromebook? Just enable Linux (Beta) on your Chromebook, install Steam via Linux, and boom, you're set to go. Buy Terraria and enjoy. Remember, not all Chromebooks can handle games, so check your specs first.
If you're feeling adventurous, you could also try using a program like Crossover for Chrome OS. It lets you run Windows software on Chromebooks, but it's a bit hit or miss. Terraria is pretty lightweight, so it might just work.
Honestly, just save yourself the headache and play Terraria on a platform it's actually made for. Chromebooks aren't really gaming machines.
