Recommended but...: >1. Be aware it's one of those games you need a wiki open to your side, because the game does a poor job (deliberately? I don't know) of explaining its mechanics or telling you what you need to do most of the time. >2. You have a list of NPCs and their related quests (fetch quests all of them). But you have to figure out how to find everything they want by yourself, as they are vert vague usually. >3. You have dozens of quests active at the same time, and it get overwhelming even after 50 hours. This is not a farming sim, it's a crafting game, or a resources administration game. You need to enjoy task solving to enjoy this game. There's nothing chill (or cozy, as the cringe community prefer to call it) about Graveyard Keeper. If your favorite part of Stardew Valley was the community center, and you wish there were five community centers scattered around Pelican Town and Calico Desert, you might like this. I like it but it makes me mad.

It's a little difficult to get started.... slow down and read the instructions from the NPCs or suffer

So i must caveat this review by saying I absolutely - and had to for my own sanity - add some mods. In general I thoroughly enjoyed the game, the macabre farming was pretty fun, the characters were cute and an army of automated zombie slaves was epic. I even enjoyed the day "system" which for me having a colour coded calendar like system was super helpful rather than trying to remember on "Mondays" or the "first day of the month" even if it was a massive pain in the butt if you missed it. But 10 hours in, what I could absolutely could not stand was walking at snails pace, teleport cooldowns and the most ridic inventory limitations when you've got to walk from one side of the map to the other to pick up/ drop off the one item you almost definitely forgot. So I got: A sprint mod No teleport cool down Bigger inventory ..and a fishing mod - coz that shit was annoying af too. I would still say start the game at the intended pace, but when its so painful you could harvest your own organs on an anatomy table... check out some mods for your own sanity :-)

It looks simple but is actually an incredibly complex game. It's terrible at explaining what you need to do to advance so you will be spending a lot of time googling for answers. But even with that it's still a very fun game if you're willing to put some time in.

This is a slightly tough one to recommend. I can't deny playing it somewhat obsessively, but I don't know that I can say I have a ton of fond memories for playing it. Short of the very end of the game, when some automation starts taking off, there is just always so, so, so much that needs to be getting done at any moment. And it's not in the Stardew Valley way, where you'll get to it tomorrow. It's just always piling up, more and more to do, and some of it has to happen on certain days of the in game week, and it's just a lot to keep track of and do. It doesn't encourage healthy gameplay. The game is also very bleak. From helping burn witches, to helping neighbors do bad things to each other because they hate each other, you'll be forced into doing a lot of bad things if you want to progress the plot. Not even bad for the greater good, but just being rotten. It's not the break I was looking for from a sometimes bleak and overworked life. I hoped it would paid off, but it really didn't. But the gameplay is fairly solid, so I'm sure it's the right game for some people. Complements to the devs for making your basic tools not take up valuable inventory slots, and for using the E and F keys to "do" rather than endlessly having to switch between the right tools. The depth of the trees for upgrading what you can do is really good, and the barriers to getting to the next part of it seem really well thought out. It's a pain to work around, but one that's pushes that Fun button every time you figure out how to get the points you need. Crafting is really neat, and the ability to automate it later is a huge boon. The fact that they block you from getting too rich too fast could be annoying, but I think is a good mechanic in the end. It keeps prices from having to ascend into the millions of gold pieces to keep up with what you're bringing in. While I complain about the schedule with some people only being available once a week, it does keep the town fresh, with specific things that you can only do that day. It's a good game, with solid design and a lot of plot in it. It wasn't really for me, but I think it's worth a try.
