There is a little too much grinding included in the game and this can make things become a little tedious.Does Graveyard Keeper do enough to get a recommendation from me: Have you ever wanted to build and manage your very own graveyard? Well now you can with the very fun and in some ways unique Graveyard Keeper. This game is a management sim at heart, but it also features some unique mechanics which have been done really well and are charming to say the least. In terms of content you’ll easily be able to sink tons of hours into it, in fact there’s that much content that at times you can be a little overwhelmed. The content also features quite a bit of grinding as well so things will become tedious a little bit, but thankfully when you get past the grinding what you get is a game that’s full of life and variety. This variety then makes recommending Graveyard Keeper quite easy and if you have any interest in game’s of this ilk then you will thoroughly enjoy your time with this game. Expand

    To enjoy this game, you have to be a lover of the game style like Stardew Valley or even Harvest Moon. It mixes crafting, farming and RPG with very intelligent humor. There are many easter eggs like the names of the DLC or the vampire hunter (aka Geralt de Rivia). The history is long and you have to be ready for repetitive tasks - like the other games of the same gender.

    Originally, I had planned to write this review after I completed Graveyard Keeper, but after 100 in-game days I still have a ton of quests left, two Church expansions to build, and at least one area left to unlock. I’m not sure how much left there is to this one because it’s the sort of experience that hides its true scope, but I can say that it’s one I have a hard time putting down and I’m looking forward to (hopefully) reuniting the Keeper with his wife.

    Graveyard Keeper takes a proven, but seldom used, format of game and gives it the fresh twist that needs to feel wholly unique while not straying too far from the blueprints that would make it compelling. Maybe, just maybe, if you aren't too attached to your yearly run through of Luigi's Mansion or Resident Evil 4 for Halloween you'll consider picking up Graveyard Keeper for something different. Or you could do it now... You should do it now.

    In all I found Graveyard Keeper to be an enjoyable experience if a little frustrating. It certainly isn’t a game for everyone, but for those that love a good management sim and want something a little different from the norm then Graveyard Keeper is a game I certainly recommend.
