The most inaccurate medieval cemetery sim is back! Restore The Town, manage the graveyard, automate production, lead your undead army into battle and turn the zombie problem into a thriving business! Graveyard Keeper 2 is the grotesque sequel that's deeper than six feet, and more unhinged than ever!

The Real Review

Graveyard Keeper II is a solid sequel for the right crowd, keeping the grim humor and core management intact, but it's dragged down by some divisive new ideas. The story and voice acting are well-liked, and the art style still looks great. The big issue is the shift toward automation and factory mechanics, which a lot of players found frustrating and poorly implemented, making the gameplay feel like a chore. Performance is also a common complaint, with many reporting technical problems across platforms.
