Graveyard Keeper

This game is pretty much tedious and overwhelming. In the beginning you are being bombarded with tutorials, mechanics and characters. The tutorials only answer half of the mechanics and you pretty much have to look up online what the remaining things mean. I even had to look up how one uses a sword. One of the tutorials mentions that repair kits can be crafted, but apparently it's hidden deep in one of the six tech tree tabs. Why not pace the mechanics gradually? The game throws items at you in the beginning, but provides you with no ways of actually using them. You can't even sell them because most items are unsellable. A different thing is the time spent just traveling. I swear I spend most of my time just looking at my character walk. It's just not fun.

jogo muito bom pra relaxar. Nem na faculdade tirei tanto órgão de defunto como nesse jogo, nota 10

миллион квестов, миллион вопросов, миллион ответов, непонятно как многие вещи сделать, зачем делать, иди туда, иди сюда, иди к звездочёту, на гору, к церкви, в деревню, время непонятно как определяется. 3 / 10

This is a great game! This game will inevitably be compared a lot to Stardew Valley, but it's actually quite different and better in many ways. Pros: 1. The pixel art is incredibly well done. The dynamic lighting and weather effects are amazing! SDV on the other hand, while charming in its own way, definitely feels more like "programmer art". 2. This game actually has a quite interesting storyline (more content there if you get the DLCs), with intertwined quests from different NPCs. 3. [i]Actual[/i] chill and cozy vibes, because there is no time pressure at all! The events happen on a weekly rotation, so if you missed anything, or can't finish something on a certain day, all you need to do is wait one week (about half an hour in real time). No quests are time-locked, so you can do them at any time of your leisure. When the NPCs tell you to "come back tomorrow" in a quest, that means you can go back tomorrow, or 50 days later, it doesn't matter. Even the main graveyard management mechanic can be paused (so that you stop getting a new corpse every day), if you want to focus on other stuff in the game. 4. I really enjoyed the characters and humor in this game. The mumbling skull companion is an instant favorite - "Holy sard! I'm a skull!" Neutrals: 1. The quests in this game are highly intertwined. So there will be a lot of "talk to A, who tells you to talk to B, who asks for item C which is sold by D, but only if you improve your relation with him first by getting item E..." going on. The fact that key NPCs only show up on their special day of the week makes this a little annoying. 2. There are a lot of different things to do in this game, which is awesome. But it could feel a bit overwhelming at times. Both of these points could be negatives, but not so much since there's no time pressure at all. Just do whatever you want at your own pace. Cons: 1. The game is very grindy. The DLCs introduce some mechanics that could improve the QoL and/or speed up some of the grind, but still. I highly recommend installing some mods, and that should really help improve the experience. Overall, I really enjoyed it. You should definitely get it if you like farming/crafting sims, cozy and chill gameplay, nice pixel graphics, and dark humors.

This game does not respect your time. Which is unfortunate, because the idea has great potential and was the reason I originally bought this game. It quickly devolved into the most ungodly grind I have ever experienced, pretty much right at the start as well! Right as I was done with the introductory gameplay and spent a few days doing things, there were several things I had to have in order to progress, and they were a few steps down the skill-tree, and/or just took a lot of time to obtain. That's no fun! Small steps with a pretty tight loop, that's fun. Your stamina is hilariously low. Eating food does replenish that, but it's faster to just go to bed and sleep it off. It's so little, you can maybe get a few steps in on a long-ass project you were tasked to do. I also feel that the stamina cost of actions was quite unbalanced, or just outrageously high (which is about the same as not enough stamina, just the reverse). I dearly missed obvious way to track your tasks while you're walking around and doing them -- the best shot was to look at your NPC connections in your inventory screen. Things I am personally used to from other RPGs, showing where to go / what to do next when tracking that one specific task. The game definitely does feel like care went into it -- but I also feel like a bit more game testing would have helped tightening the gameplay to not feel like a second job. Knowing me I'll probably finish this game in the far future just to see what else it has to offer, but these first few hours didn't look super promising.

this game is amazing.

虽然是送的，但是还是不推荐。游戏有主线，但是提示很差。我玩了很久还没玩的核心的僵尸工人。地图太空旷，NPC刷新太久。走了弯路就中间时间全是浪费了的，没有一点其他可以补救的。

slow and horrendous. stupid jokes. given for free because to advertise GK2. keep away from this game
