![]() There’s a long and complex series of skill trees in things like smithing, forestry and fishing, and you’ll need to be earning upgrade points in all of these to work your way through the quests and follow the story of the game. Your main time in game will be spent trying to fulfill quests that the villagers and townsfolk all have for you. Instead they serve as the backdrop to a game with quite a number of facets. ![]() The activities of the graveyard, whilst important to the game, are actually not what you’ll spend most of your time doing. It’s quite similar to games like Harvest Moon or Stardew Valley, but with a darker sense of humour injected into it like formaldehyde into a cadaver destined for open-casket burial. We’re here to talk about a videogame.ĭon’t let the cutesy stylings fool you: this is a much more in-depth game than you might expect. Just like my relationship with the aforementioned partner who wore an even louder outfit to our first date. You’ll be managing the day-to day activities of the cemetery such as burying bodies, arranging cremations, and extracting flesh to be sold as cheap meat to the local innkeeper. You start the game by waking up unexpectedly in this strange medieval land, with only a disembodied skull for company, who serves as your guide throughout. You play as the titular keeper of the graveyard, although it’s not a job you applied for. It was inevitable I was going to review this game. I really like it, and that juxtaposition of low-res cuteness with skulls, gravestones and dead bodies appealed to me from the get-go. The same could be said of Graveyard Keeper, with its old school pixellated art style that’s so divisive. When I say bright, I mean fluorescent, but nonetheless, she looked stunning to me. ![]() She was wearing a pretty loud outfit bright green it was. They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that certainly applied when I first met my partner.
