Dinkum is a singleplayer (and co-op) economic role-playing game developed and released by James Bendon in 2023. Travel to the sunny island inspired by the Australian wilderness and create your town! This title is a perfect recommendation for fans of relaxing simulators like Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, and Harvest Moon. But with a few twists, improvements, and new gameplay mechanics! If you are looking for a video game where you can create your place - this is your best choice. Gameplay Dinkum has almost no plot. Your adventure begins when you arrive on the island to develop your town. But everything has to be done from scratch! Start by creating a character. You can choose from many clothes and appearance options, completely customizing your hero. All ready! Explore the area to discover the biomes and resources. Each piece of information will be essential for the construction plan of the future town. Gather resources and start designing the first structures that may soon become homes. Mine valuable minerals, grow plants, and harvest crops. You can also breed chickens and wombats! But remember, the island has a life of its own, and changing temperatures and seasons can make a big difference to your harvests. Take good care of them, and soon you will be able to enjoy whole fields of your vegetables and fruits! In addition to farming and breeding animals, you can also engage in other activities. Go fishing, catch bugs or test your survival skills while hunting and setting traps. Tropical forests and desert wastelands hide incredible riches! Embark on a dangerous adventure and discover who is better at survival - you or all those ravenous animals. Collecting resources is also vital, as you can create brilliant stuff in an extensive crafting system. Let your creativity run wild! Design beautiful items and structures that will attract new citizens in no time. Building a village is one part of the game. The second is the relationship with the NPCs. You will meet many random travelers who will visit your town and decide whether to live in it or not. Their decisions are influenced by details like supplies, the beauty of buildings, a charming atmosphere, and the possibility of trading. Take care of every aspect of city management: beautify it, develop it, defend it from predators, and pet your animals. This game will be like clay in your hands - you can even move entire buildings or terraform the land as you please! Prefer to share responsibilities with others? We got you covered!
