It is okay. It is a little bit kidish and cartoony for me. I do like these style of games but this may be better for someone younger.

🦘 Dinkum Review 🌿 I absolutely enjoyed this game! It reminded me of Animal Crossing, but without the day-to-day time limit, and with so much more added on top. The Australian-themed island is charming, the art style is bright and beautiful, and the ambient wildlife sounds are wonderfully relaxing. At the beginning, the game felt a little bare, and I worried I was doing something wrong. But once I went with the flow, things quickly became more exciting. There’s a surprising amount to do as systems start unlocking. My early focus was making money, so I planted lots of fruit and created a lovely orchard. Once the income started rolling in, getting residents to move into my town became much easier. From there, I built up a large farm with different crops and eventually animals, an area I ended up loving and spending tons of time in. As I explored more, I also loved discovering the many different vehicles you can use to get around the island. They make travelling so much easier and add a fun new way to explore the huge map. Gear progression plays a huge part in Dinkum. Unlocking the mines was tough at first; the enemies were super annoying, and yes, I definitely died a few times. But after getting better equipment, everything felt much more manageable. The mines became less stressful and more rewarding, letting me gather the ores and materials I needed to make my town even prettier. I had so much fun completing tasks, collecting bugs and fish for the museum, and even hunting down mighty alphas. There’s just so much to do. I loved having the freedom to design my town exactly how I wanted. I created an epic farming area, a fully equipped workshop for all my machines, and decorated everything with the game’s huge selection of items. Even the clothing options were great, I spent a lot of time mixing and matching outfits. There are plenty of hidden surprises too, including rare character spawns and even a whole new place to explore (no spoilers!). The game also features co-op. I mostly played solo, but when I did play with a friend, we had a blast. Whether you want a cozy day tending crops or a combat-focused day diving into the mines, the game lets you play at your own pace. One thing to note: the game doesn’t explain a lot of its mechanics. I often had to check Discord or YouTube for tips and things I didn’t even know were possible. But honestly, discovering new features was part of the fun. I highly, highly recommend Dinkum. You’ll get tons of hours out of it, and for achievement hunters, it’s not too punishing to reach 100%. The developers are friendly, regularly patch the game, and recently released an amazing update with trains and animal taming, which has been a blast. It really feels like they listen to their community. G’day everyone—have fun, mates!🌻 Tip: If you want to find more reviews like this, check out our curator page [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41527689/]Moon's Tea House

Very Fun Game, currently loving it. Currently when starting the game the clock doesn't start running until you place the base camp, take advantage of that and explore all of the map that you can and place markers down around resources like ore, rocks, trees, and fruits.

Everything is perfect EXCEPT anything related to inventory management and crafting...Everything related to those two areas are tedious and obnoxious. - cannot auto-sort inventory - everything related to inventory management and crafting is tedious - give characters a tool belt or something that stops tools from taking up inventory space - crafting stations do not auto-pull from nearby chests and storage items (until late late game - you'll still put a solid 100+ hours dealing with the obnoxious inventory and crafting system) - automatically adds new items to hot-bar, creating more annoying inventory management - hearts decay on residents after awhile, getting them to 5/5 hearts feels more like a chore that never ends - no timer or any indication of how far along an item is at in the charging station - my dirt printer takes just as long to charge when placed on the charger at 90% battery vs 5% battery - Something about mini-map is off, it isn't helpful and more often than not I still need to use the main map to navigate - The main map ALWAYS opens zoomed in on your characters location, is very annoying - the stamina system is obnoxious, if you run out of stamina, your character slogs around until the bar is 100% again. - power tools using stamina makes it feel like 50% of the reason to get them no longer exists - stamina slog, remove the slog portion of stamina drain, stop the character from taking actions until the appropriate amount of stamina is available. - stamina drain and annoyances mean you HAVE to have food on your character, which would not be a big deal if inventory management wasn't already and nightmare.
