What is Graveyard Keeper 2?

Graveyard Keeper 2 is a single-player medieval simulation, RPG, adventure, and automation game developed by Lazy Bear Games and published by tinyBuild. It expands the original cemetery-management formula into a larger Town threatened by a zombie apocalypse.

Players manage a graveyard, harvest resources, craft machinery, automate production with undead workers, rebuild homes, complete quests, build defenses, forge equipment, and lead zombie troops into battle while turning every crisis into another questionable business opportunity.
