The hot new co-op farming game is called Dinkum

On the grand spectrum of Stardewlikes to Crossinglikes, Dinkum does sound like it falls right in the middle. You'll decorate your house and town to your liking, fish and catch bugs, and invite nine different characters to join your island. You'll also be raising crops and livestock though, from cactus to wombats, and Dinkum doesn't tie you to the real world clock the way Animal Crossing does.

As for the multiplayer, it looks closer to Animal Crossing. Friends can visit your world to help you farm and forage but only the host can earn progress through main quest objectives—something mentioned in most of the negative reviews that had hoped for more Stardew-like shared progression. Dinkum does have some extra twists for those of us well-versed in the life and farming sim loop. It's important to choose the proper location, not just season, for your crops because temperatures are different between biomes like eucalyptus forests and deserts. It also brings foraging activities like metal detecting and ways to zip around like hang gliders.

It's not all sunshine and cactus down here though. Dinkum is based on the wildlife of Australia, and not just the kind you'd want to pet. You'll need to fight or trap crocodiles waiting in the water. And don't forget that kangaroos are actually dangerous too. Dinkum is still in early access, mind. Bendon says that routine updates will add"new seasonal events, new characters coming to the island, clothing, items, and loads, loads more," and plans for the early access process to last at least a year.
