Graveyard Keeper

Highly recommended, especially if you really like these time and resource management kind of sim/strategy games but wish the popular ones had less emphasis on romance and family building.

I beat this game in September 2018. At launch it had a few bugs that impeded quest progress and some balance weirdness that could make it very difficult to continue. The devs fixed the showstoppers and tightened up the resource balance, and even added new content. An expansion is planned.

Pretty lame story (even if it doesn't seem like it at first) which doesn't explain anything; also an absolute metric shitton of crafting and grinding, most of which is absolutely required to progress. Amazing pixel art graphics though.

Sure there was, but it's both a mess and a slog to get through, and even if you do, it has next to zero payoff.

The developers of this are Russian, and even though I am too, it's not the language barrier thing: this is just how it's written.

I like it, but it gets boring fast. I wonder if this game gets better with all the DLCs it has. I agree with @Crimson Harvest. Honestly, haven't played enough.

I REALLY wanted to like this game as a fan of Stardew Valley.

Problem is the burn is just too slow for my taste and I'm fairly patient when it comes to slow burn games. But after playing it for two hours and barely making any progress in my farm, I recognized it was never gonna be for me. And while I enjoy quirky and dark humor, this wasn't enough for me to put up with the grind.

Intriguing beginning, but too much grind after. Also I don't really like characters (even if it is by design). Donkey is cool tho.
