16 Best Games With Emergent Gameplay

Terraria

Considered a side-scrolling version of Minecraft, Terraria is definitely its own thing. Depending on which enemies spawn, random events, NPCs and procedurally generated worlds, different players will have different experiences. You could embark on a dungeon crawl and discover better weapons or simply build a house and improve it forever with decorations, fortifications and whatnot, to say nothing about the various items, contraptions and bosses that will spice things up.
