Graveyard Keeper 2 guide: start here

Pick the page that fits your situation

7 original guides, each separating its evidence — game data, objective text, gameplay captions or editorial judgement. The cards below are ordered by situation; the full list is in All guides.

• Your first hour Start here on a fresh save: dungeon, town sequence, first grave and first Burial Certificate — each claim marked as game data or caption-checked gameplay.
• Beginner troubleshooting Blocked? Find the symptom: a quest that will not advance, no energy, not enough tech points, crops, fishing or construction that will not work.
• Early tech route Wood, bronze, fuel or gardening first? Every purchase with its cost and what it actually unlocks — no need to bank points first.
• Basic resources Where wood, Bronze Scrap, stone, clay, seeds and early food come from, and what to spend them on first.
• Early money guide What Burial Certificates sell for, which goods Herm buys, and which building materials are a mistake to sell early.
• Graveyard & burial How red and white skulls are counted, whether headstones and fences pay off, the first body, and when cremation is worth it.
