Handy for speeding up a fresh run or cleaning up achievements you missed.

If you’re on PC and just want to chill through the grind, WeMod’s trainer makes Graveyard Keeper a lot more… zen. It auto-detects your version and lets you flip toggles on the fly.

• Unlimited Health – Ignore damage and hazards entirely.
• Unlimited Energy – Chop, mine, and craft without ever napping.
• Unlimited Coins – Buy upgrades and supplies right away.
• Mega Tech Points Drop – Speed through the tech tree faster than usual.
• Easy Craft – Craft without having every material on hand.
• Unlimited Corpse Durability – Corpses won’t decay while you hoard and prep them.

It’s updated regularly for the Steam version. As always: single-player only and use at your own risk.

If you’re comfortable with memory editors, community Cheat Engine tables for Graveyard Keeper cover the essentials.

• How to use: Install Cheat Engine, open the game, attach CE to the process, load the Graveyard Keeper .CT file, and toggle scripts.
• Infinite Items: Stacks don’t decrease when used or sold. You’ll need at least 2 of an item to start; F12 is often mapped to toggle so you don’t have to alt-tab.
• Easy Gold: Pair Infinite Items with selling repeatables (like burial certificates) to the tavern. Since stacks don’t drop and vendor stock resets daily, you can turn that into a steady money printer.

Look for actively maintained tables for your specific version.

Three colors, three playstyles—mix as needed to progress smoothly.

• Blue points: Research and alchemy. Study items, unlock science perks, and push knowledge-based recipes.
• Green points: Farming/gardening. Better crops, garden upgrades, and passive food pipelines.
• Red points: Labor/combat. Tool upgrades, mining, chopping, and general work efficiency.

Key unlocks:

• Cultist (300 blue): See organ skull values during autopsy—huge time-saver.
• Crematorium: Burn low-quality corpses for certificates, salt, and ash instead of polluting your yard score.
• Zombie tech (DLC): Automate the boring parts once unlocked.

Some perks multiply point generation, so a little planning up front pays off. The game nudges you to dabble in all three trees rather than tunnel-vision one system.

Turn your best corpses into tireless workers and let automation take the wheel.

• Conversion: Prep a corpse, then convert it into a zombie worker once you unlock the tech.
• What they do: Digging, farming, hauling, crafting loops—anything repetitive that eats your day.
• Why it’s great: They never rest, eat, or demand payment. Scale your operations while you focus on quests and upgrades.
• Playtime: Expect 6–12 hours added on a new run, 4–5 if you’re returning to a finished save.

Pair zombies with upgraded tools and you’ll have a bustling production line humming in the background.

Open a tavern, pour drinks, and unravel the juicier backstories around town.

• Tavern management: Serve food and booze, set up passive income, and unlock new questlines tied to patrons.
• Lore boost: Extra cutscenes and character development deepen the world and its weird secrets.
• Playtime: Adds 6–12 hours to a fresh playthrough; about 4–5 hours if you’re returning.
• Dark organs: Progression eventually lets you extract and use dark organs for new recipes and upgrades.

If you like economy loops and more narrative meat, this is the DLC to grab first.

The bishop ends his sermon with “May the Force be with you,” a reference to Star Wars.

Some achievements that track repeated actions can freeze mid-run. Things that commonly stick:

• Burying corpses, cooking recipes, alchemy mixes, fishing catches, health potions, dungeon progress, and sashimi totals.

What it looks like:

• Counters halt at odd numbers (e.g., 32/50 burials) and refuse to move, even as you keep doing the task.

What’s helped players:

• Verify game files (Steam → Properties → Local Files → Verify integrity).
• Try playing offline to avoid cloud-save hiccups.
• If you’ve modded or used trainers, revert and test a clean session.
• Full reinstalls rarely help unless files were corrupt—verify first.

If it persists, report it via the Steam community hub with your save details.

Bought a DLC and nothing appears? It’s usually an install hiccup.

• Fix: In Steam, right-click the game → Properties → Local Files → Verify integrity of game files. This repairs missing/corrupted DLC data.
• Before you start: Make sure the DLC is fully installed and enabled in your Steam DLC tab.
• If adding mid-save: Make a manual save, install the DLC, then reload. Some content triggers more cleanly after a reload or day rollover.

It’s rare, but the verify step resolves most missing-content cases in minutes.

To create a perfect corpse with a 12-skull (white skulls) rating, you’ll need to start with the right kind of corpse. You’ll also need an Embalming Table, advanced alchemy skills, and rare materials.

A maximum of 5 white skulls can be added through the embalming process, and a maximum of 2 white skulls can be added through the autopsy process. With 7 bonus skulls possible, you’ll need to start with at least 5 white skulls to reach 12. Of course, more makes it easier.

A maximum of 3 red skulls can be removed through the embalming process, and a maximum of 2 can be removed through the autopsy process. While this is a total of 5, 1 more is usually added as well while embalming. As a result, you should start with 4 red skulls or fewer.

The Cultist perk will also let you see the skull rating of individual organs, which can be an aid if you can remove an organ to improve the corpse.

Keep in mind that depending on the corpse you end up with, there are numerous ways for you to adjust it to reach the desired state.

Note: It is also possible to end up with a 13-skull corpse, but this has no benefit over 12 skulls.

The video below shows an example of making a 12-skull corpse.

Alchemy is a key part of the gameplay. Here are a few of its basic concepts to get you on the right track.

You will be able to make three types of substances by processing items: extracts, powders, and solutions. Extracts are made by processing Essence with the Distillation Cube, Powders are made by processing Powder with the Alchemy Mill, and Solutions are made by processing Fluid with the Hand Mixer.

There are eight different elements. Each substance can have one element. The eight elements are split into four sets of opposing pairs:

• Acceleration vs Slowness
• Life vs Death
• Order vs Chaos
• Health vs Toxic

Some substances used for alchemy do not have elements:

• Alcohol
• Ash
• Blood
• Goo
• Graphite Powder
• Gold Powder
• Oil
• Salt
• Silver Powder
• Spices
• Water
• White Powder
• Yellow Electro Powder

The Tier 1 Alchemy Workbench will allow you to combine powders and solutions. Once you upgrade to the Tier 2 Alchemy Workbench, you’ll be able to add extracts as well.

At the start of the game, work on upgrading your church, especially the outside, which determines how much you’ll earn for each sermon. The church is key to earning you the money you need to keep going in the early part of the game. Taking care of corpses and ensuring they have as few red skulls as possible will also help you earn more money.

Late in the game (especially when you’re trying to earn enough money to get the Aristocrat Papers), you’ll want to work especially hard to maximize your income. The trade office (farming) should be a top priority, because it pays well if you have gold-quality crops and a fast enough growth speed to fill all of the boxes for each day. Have 5 boxes ready at the start of the day and 5 ready at the end of the day.

As long as your church is doing well and your prayer is successful, you will still earn a good amount of money from sermons in the later part of the game.

These are the most effective ways of earning money, although the other methods (especially the witch burnings) will also give you a boost.

First, unlock fishing by helping the lighthouse keeper and bringing 6 moths (grab them from flowers at night). Then hit these five spots:

• Sea/Ocean: East of the lighthouse. Biggest variety, and the only place to snag the elusive Goldfish. Distance (near/far) and time (day/night) matter here.
• Small Pond: Northeast of the village. Good mid-game spot; e.g., Silver Crucian shows up at night.
• Waterfall: Left of your house, past the church bridge. Has unique species and both near/far casts.
• River: North-left of your house, right of the marble quarry. Multiple ranges; think Pike and Sturgeon territory.
• Swamp: Tricky to find. Go past the small bridge toward Clotho and wind through the swamp. Exclusive species live here.

Quick tips:

• Bites usually come 6–8 seconds after the bob dips. The react window is short.
• During the mini-game, feather the button to keep the fish icon inside the yellow bar.
• Eat fishing foods before casting:

• Fish Nuggets – more reaction time after the bite.
• Baked Fish/Fish Soup – fish move slower; easier reeling.

Knowing where and how to fish is half the battle. A few clutch examples:

• Sea
  • Sardine: Near, no bait, any time, high success.
  • Tuna: Far, gem lure, day, very high success.
  • Goldfish: Far, gem lure, night, ~5% – rare and required for Ichthyologist.
• Pond
  • Silver Crucian: Far, gem lure, night, guaranteed.
• Waterfall
  • Carp: Near, no bait, guaranteed.
  • Salmon: Far, gem lure, decent rate.
• River
  • Gold Crucian: Near, day, anchovy or gudgeon, very low rate (the stubborn one).
  • Pike: Near, gem lure, guaranteed.
  • Sturgeon: Mid, butterfly or moth, guaranteed.

Gear matters:

• Simple Fishing Rod: Bring 6 moths to the lighthouse fisherman.
• Excellent Rod: Opens more species and makes the hard ones feasible.

Chasing Ichthyologist? Goldfish is the only true nightmare. If you’re not a completionist, focus on the easier 15 species and circle back later.

With the Better Save Soul DLC, corpse quality caps at 26 white skulls. The trick is balancing organ sets and finishing with the right embalming chain.

• Aim for organ totals that add 0, +1, or +2 red skulls:
• +0: Add a dark injection to a standard organ set.
• +1: Remove one skull organ.
• +2: Leave the set untouched.
• Consistent high-value combos: +2/+2 with two “clean” sets, or -2/+3, +3/+3, and one clean set.
• Embalming order: After organ selection and adding white skulls, return organs to the body and apply: Glue → Lye → Silver → Gold.
• Blood removal rule: Blood in-body counts +1 red, -1 white. Removing it flips that to +1 white, -1 red. Other organs follow the same “removal inverts contribution” logic—check the autopsy UI.
• Cultist perk (300 blue): Shows exact organ skull values, which saves a lot of guesswork.

Tinker, check, and only bury once you’ve hit your target white-skull count.

Your graveyard score comes from corpse quality plus decorations—but the math has limits.

• Base rating: Start at 0 if the corpse has no red skulls. Each red skull = -1 to the base.
• Decay matters: Below 90% freshness, white skulls start turning green (one every 10% decay). That lowers long-term value.
• Decoration cap: Gravestone + fence points can’t exceed the corpse’s white skull count. Overbuilding is wasted materials.
• Optimize builds: If a corpse has 13 white skulls, match with, say, a Marble Sculpture IV (9) plus a simple marble fence (4) for a perfect 13.
• Solid baseline: A decent grave is a 4-white-skull corpse with stone gravestone and stone fence for +4.
• Church bonuses:
• Candles give temporary +2 each in holders.
• Perimeter stone fence around the yard adds a permanent +20.
• Church Level 3 can grant more if you bring 3 gold-quality carved marble to the Bishop.

Invest where it counts—on corpses with the skulls to support fancy decor.
