Released 22 Apr 2025
Build an Outback Town
Farm Crops and Animals
Trap Wild Animals
You arrive on an island inspired by the Australian outback to help establish a settlement. Begin with a small camp, gather what you need to survive, and invite residents to make their home there.
Explore varied landscapes, gather resources, farm crops and raise animals, fish, catch bugs, and hunt or trap wildlife. Craft tools, furniture, and decorations, and reshape the terrain to lay out your home, farm, and town.
Sell harvests and foraged goods for Dinks, then reinvest in town growth and new opportunities. Seasons and weather affect crops, while new residents bring shops and activities as the settlement develops. Play alone or invite friends to the island.

Supplied reviews often praise Dinkum’s relaxed, self-directed rhythm and the satisfaction of growing a settlement through farming, exploration, collecting, and decorating. Players also enjoy the variety of activities and the freedom to shape their island, whether playing solo or with friends. Some reviewers report that progression can feel grindy or underexplained, and several describe multiplayer disconnections that cost guests a day’s progress.
G'Day! Grab your tools, gather resources, and build your town while hanging out with friends and enjoying the charm of Dinkum.
Plant crops, raise animals, and build your dream farm, or roam the island catching fish and bugs at your own pace.
With changing seasons and weather affecting how your crops grow, every day brings a new challenge. Slip on your flip-flops to hunt for rare fish, bugs, or ores. Every moment becomes a special adventure.
From red deserts and lush forests to hidden mines, Dinkum is full of wild places to explore. Hunt wild animals, gather resources, and learn how to survive in the great outdoors.
The creatures might look cute, but don't let your guard down! You'll need tools, weapons, and a solid strategy to make it out in one piece. Will you go head-to-head, or set traps and play it smart? The choice is yours.
What starts as a simple campfire and a sleeping bag can grow into a thriving town with shops, fountains, flower beds, and windmills.
Craft furniture and decorations to personalize your home, reshape the island to design your ideal town layout, and customize your character's look from head to toe. Invite friends over to show off your one-of-a-kind creation!
Sell your harvest and foraged goods to earn Dinks, and reinvest them to help your town flourish.
As your town grows, new shops will open, visitors will stop by—and some might even decide to stay for good. Celebrate with festivals and build a vibrant, lively town, whether you're playing solo or with friends.
