Graveyard Keeper* is** a game*** that I recommend****.

*And preacher, farmer, fisher, baker, brewer, etc.
**Or, rather, "could be."
***Or about 70% of a game.
****If you play it with the right mindset.

Actually, the core gameplay is quite fun and addictive in its own way, but things are explained poorly (if at all), content was cut from the final release, the plot and quest progression are unfinished and kinda lousy, and there are still plenty of bugs. I played this since the day of its alpha release, wrote the single most-viewed guide for this game out there, and I have a blast making my graveyard the best thing it could be. If you are willing to play something that is fun, but buggy, unfinished, and unpolished (like The Guild 2: Renaissance), then Graveyard Keeper could be a great experience for you. You just have to know what you are getting into, be prepared to see things go wrong, and not become too enraged when you realize that content the game gears you up for is not actually in the game, but is passed of by the devs in-game as "just kidding." Nobody is buying it, guys. You just didn't implement it.

But I still love preparing corpses and dressing up my graveyard.
