Graveyard Keeper is the most inaccurate medieval cemetery management sim of the year.

This is a game of capitalism and doing whatever it takes to build a thriving business.

I need to remind myself to remove this game from my library, because the reality is that if it can`t hook me in the first hour of the game it probably will be a sunken cost fallacy to play more of it, it feels more like a series of chores in a limited space rather than something you can go about on your own pace and customization.

Poor man's Stardew Valley. Definitely some good here but there was so much potential that was missed. 3/5.

It took me a long while to even consider trying it but now I have been hooked with Graveyard Keeper for nearly a week. And this comes from someone who isn't a big fan of crafting-based games. It's getting reminiscent to Runescape, though this is single-player.

The "carrot" of this game for me is the story, the amalgam of quests, the character backgrounds, the sense of progression through crafting and upgrading; all imbued to this addictive game like in form of alchemy. Even the humor on top adds the charm to it.

Yesterday, a friend of mine just finished the game after 38 hours (we both usually don't play games with such dedication). I've already put at least half into it, so I hope the steam lasts until the end.

Anyone played Graveyard Keeper? It’s out for Switch soon and I’m wondering if it’s worth picking up.

I love this game omg. I'm having a blast. It's so morbid but somehow adorable and silly at the same time?? lol. The onkey who brings corpses to my morgue is a socialist who went on strike to demand better working conditions aka more carrots.

Вообще весло. Но много гринда. Сюжет не двигаеться. А столько всего добывать. Для тех у кого куча времени.

Over 20 hours playtime and sometimes I feel that I don't progress at all but is it wrong to enjoy some simple tasks that doesn't have any bigger meaning to the story.
