As is mentioned in this post, you can get terraria working in Ubuntu with wine by following these quoted steps:

All you need is:

  • Wine 1.7.X
  • Microsoft .Net package 3.5 and 4
  • The Microsoft XNA package.

Make sure you have downloaded the complete wine from either Ubuntu Software Center or another source.

  1. Download and install wine. Then download the WINDOWS version of Steam (Has a extension .exe or .msi), install it, run it and log in, verify all the things you need to and start downloading terraria.

  2. While waiting for the download, go to your Configure Wine menu and a XP looking window should come up.

    Click on graphics. Then check the first box (Automatically capture the mouse in full-screen windows.

  3. Once Terraria has finished, Install .NET and XNA setups you have just downloaded. Terraria relies on these!

Run Terraria and everything should work!

Enjoy!

This also works with games like CS:GO except they don't need XNA or .NET!
