Graveyard Keeper 2

You take the role of the Grand Inquisitor in a medieval realm threatened by a zombie apocalypse. Alongside managing a graveyard, you work to restore the town and defend it from the undead. Gather plants, materials, and human remains to prepare bodies, craft goods, and expand your work areas. Tend crops, complete quests for townspeople, and restore homes and shops as part of the town’s recovery. Undead workers can gather resources and operate production stations, while an underground factory lets you arrange machinery and conveyor belts into production lines. Develop skills and technologies, improve your graveyard, and assemble zombie forces for strategic battles to reclaim parts of the town.

Run a medieval graveyard as the Grand Inquisitor, turn corpses into workers, rebuild a town, and battle a zombie outbreak.
