Dinkum is James Bendon's life sim set in the Australian outback: build a town, farm, mine, fish and hunt, and invite settlers, in online co-op with friends. AnySquad's LFG posts help Dinkum players find others to build a town with.
Dinkum's town building is slow alone and far better with friends splitting farming, mining and building — but it has no matchmaking, so a partner means looking outside the game.
Dinkum is developed by James Bendon and published by KRAFTON, Inc.. It has been on Steam since 2025. Multiplayer listed on Steam: online co-op. 92% of its 24,706 Steam reviews are positive. It is Playable on Steam Deck.
A duo is the easiest way to play Dinkum with someone better than a random fill — one person you can actually talk to. For a full squad, post the slots you still need: a post that says what it is missing gets answered faster than a profile that lists what you play.
Dinkum posts on AnySquad are tagged by platform, so every post you see is one you can play with.
Say how many players you need, when you play, and the one thing you care about — a mic, a rank, a region or just no raging. Leave out the rest: a short post gets answered, a list of requirements gets scrolled past. Once your group is set, close the post.
