[@kstalia]

Advice: Don't dispose of bodies just because of a few (1 or 2) red skulls, you'll have to redo your graveyard a few times anyway, so might as well get those burial certificates anyway. Also, in a little bit you'll be able to cremate your bodies and get one anyway, so if you bury your not-so-good bodies now, and cremate later, you'll get double bruial certificates!

[@Tuulos]

You'll lose money on exhuming permissions though. It's probably smarter to just let them lay around waiting for cremation.

[@theuncalledfor]

@@Tuulos AFAIK exhuming permissions cost exactly as much as a burial certificate, so it's a net zero loss or gain. Which means it's better to bury bad bodies right away, then replace them with better bodies later while burning the bad bodies. That way you get the money right away, get more later from burying the new bodies, and get back the money you spent on removing the bodies to make room for new ones. Basically you get money for every body, and get money for the bad bodies earlier than if you store them. Now, I don't know if a body will just disappear if you don't bury it, but if it does, you actually can't store it. Might be worth trying just to find out.

A good tip for getting more blue points is to buy the grape pie from Haroderic in the dead horse tavern.Eating it before studying organs doubles the amount of skill points you get. I got over 200 blue points this way which is useful since they hard to get in the beginning of the game.

[@OhsoWoobie]

same with eating cake! which you can get a recipe for from Dig.

Guide for mid game(mind my English) -plant lots of onions, pumpkins and lentils, when you progress the merchant enough, he'll let you access one of the most easy and probably most benefit way to earn money -if you are at the beginning than yes, you should dig more grave to burry, but if you like me to get max out the skull on one grave, here's how +Wait for a 9 skulls corpse,with 4 red skulls( no more), +cut blood+fat, replacing 2 red with 2 white + (must have all emboldens research)inject in order: golden liquid(replace 2 red with 2 white), glue (add one white), cut off skull(add 1 red), silver injection (replace 1 red with 1 white) and you should be able to reach max skulls - don't buy upgrade the church before you buy the next citizen paper. I learned that the hard way. after upgrading the church to the big church the priest will need you to give him the rightful citizen paper or he won't let you make ceremonies , so saved up about 30 silvers before upgrading it -if you haven't have the perks to help you get more chance to do shit like crafting books or statue or wine... Go to sleep before doing it, doesn't matter if your energy is near full, when you sleep ,the game saves, so you can doing things that have low successful chance and if it fail, quit the game, go back in and do it until you got the rank of the stuffs you need -lack of blue points? Go to the philosopher on "moon" day, he'll sold a book that give you 25 points for 5 silvers and 50 for 50 silvers( I know, the latter one is a scam) -vendors doesn't have enough tiers ? Craft the "prayer of prosperity "( the blue one with a house on it) after a successful ceremony, it'll give you a special paper that if you sell it to the vendor, their tier bar will go up(don't need a gold star prayer, cause you just need it roughly 5 times to make every vendors max tier) Don't collect berries, it just a waste of time, you will cost 2-3 energy to get 3-4 berries( each only give 2 energy and you can only carry about 30 or 50 before it need a new slot in you bag), it's better to collect honey, you need about 5-7 energy and a little HP to get 2 honey each give 15 energy And also a great snack if you don't want to go to sleep too soon Oh and unlike the beta, nighttime doesn't exactly give you more energy like the beta so sleep whenever you want

[@vikitoria6699]

You can earn green points by pulling out the flowers , it gives one per flower and since there are so many in the map you'll get some easy green points fast. If I'm not mistaken they cost -1 energy to pull, but they can so be eaten and give +3 energy (maybe +2, I don't remember the exact number). Harvesting berries from the bushes also gives green points, and energy if eaten. Since they give little energy I collect a lot of them and eat a bunch whenever I run out of energy in the middle of building something, that way I can finish my work, go to sleep and use my full energy bar with something else. Thanks for the awesome guide, I wish I had it two days ago, I was really lost when I started playing, thankfully I got the drill of the game and I feel like I'm progressing :). sorry if I made any grammatical errors, English is not my first language :P

[@stephanie5878]

Great little tutorial. Wish I had this a few days ago when I first started playing, now to salvage my current playthrough...

[@ButterflyGhostBFG]

All of the grave decoration (fences/gravestones etc.) gives lots of blue points when you study them, it's worth hanging onto one of each of the poor quality wood/stone ones until you've researched them. Then you can break them down for parts/destroy them after. It's worth unlocking better quality grave decorations because you'll end up getting more blue points back than you spend. Be aware though that when you upgrade the church the bishop will be a jerk and not let you preach again until you have rightful citizen papers. Plan ahead if you are relying on getting faith/money to move forward.

[@Sum2k3]

Surely it was mentioned.. but just to be sure: you can recycle used graveyard parts like the cross or wooden decoration in the woodcutter. Even the stone parts can recycled in stonecutter I or II

[@wojciech91]

Hey DF, been watching your videos for awhile and been waiting for you to get further into graveyard keeper. (I love the game and just finished it a couple days ago) Nice video, keep up the good work. For your next video: good sources for early game blue points is from firing glass in the furnace, building and studying grave fences and headstones, and studying the various body parts as well.

[@Dougretseverything]

the teleportstone recharges depending on how far you travel so running around will recharge its not dependent on time

[@blakeryan7894]

I don't know if it worked that way when you left the comment but it is in fact time based, however time pauses when you are in the menus which is why it doesn't seem to recharge if you close your inventory it will recharge.

No literally. I JUST started and can’t figure out how to even get a pickaxe 😭🥲

[@sarahb.8175]

Hey, me too!!

[@jackochainsaw]

Always leave one open grave so you can dump a body quick. If you make a mistake on a body keep the skin, fat, meat and skull. The brain, bones, intestines, and heart come in useful later on but leave them on the corpse early game. Always have one set of filch, nails and iron parts ready to go. The teleport stone is super useful. Fishing 🎣 is an awesome way of making bank. Farming can make you serious returns from wheat > flour sold to the Miller or farmer. Try to upgrade your sermon at the church as soon as you can, the trade one is good early. Studying the brain at the study table gives you a lot of blue in return. If you need science decompose white paper at the study table. Use the trunks, nothing spoils in the game. Leave plenty of space in your inventory when you get into the dungeon section.

[@MissBond4007]

Thank you so much for this video. I just grabbed Graveyard Keeper for the Switch and immediately felt in over my head. This is such a great guide! I don’t feel like as much of an idiot after watching this!!

[@Darkendragon]

I know it does sound odd to say that blood and fat transforms a red skull to white skull. it is truely better to say you get -1 red skull and +1 white skull. this is because you can in fact have negative numbers. this means that if you end up with negative red skulls, then you can do embalming later where it would add 1 red and 1 white skull but since the red skulls are in the negative, you'll only see the white skulls being added.

[@Mashamazzi]

I think the blood takes away one red, and the fat adds one white skull Since you can remove only one it's not technically "swapping"

[@Darkendragon]

no, both blood and fat takes away a red skull and adds a white skull. if you were at a point where you have negative amounts of white skull, or red skulls, and you did any embalming that would add which ever one that has negative amounts, you'll notice that you'll get less than you expected. also negative red skulls also affect your grave's score. if you had a body that started with only 1 red skull, if you removed blood and fat from it, you'll notice that when you buried the body, you'll have a score of 1 for the grave instead of 0, this is because you have a -1 red skull and red skulls subtracts the grave's score. so having a negative red skull will actually increase your rating instead.

[@kanaverum]

[@Volcarion]

huh, you've been making silly videos for so long i had forgotten that you also make really helpful guides. thanks DF!

[@michasokoowski6651]

You also should unlock hardparts to harvest skull, which gives 1 red skull, and then remove blood/fat to change it into the white one, it works perfectly with bodies that have 1 red skull, when bodies have 3 red skulls you should harvest one of the important parts, that will remove 2 random skulls (they depents on body generation, so you can save and try to get perfect body). The trick with autopsy table is worth checking, im myself using trick with putting a body in the grave, without burying it, which works for sure. Dont destroy good grave parts, keep them in chest for some time, later you can repair them, which costs less resources than making them again. Also killing the bats will give you their wings, that you can use to make paper, which will be very helpful.

[@mvcastro1966]

If you spam right click while pushing logs etc. horizontally, it stays with you and does not slip off. Essentially you are juggling the one carried with the one pushed.

Bodies decompose in order from fastest to slowest 1: Being on the ground outside 2: Being on the ground inside the morgue 3: Being on the autopsy table/body rack 4: Being on the refrigerated body rack I didn't include messing with any of the embalming liquids, those come pretty late game anyway. Also, pro tip, if you're tired of bodies getting dropped off all the time, just store some in the morgue until you have X/X bodies (max you can hold), and the donkey won't show up. You can also not give him carrots (After he goes on strike), but if you're an idiot like me and gave him 50 carrots (10 bodies) and don't feel like dealing with them every day for 2 in game weeks (excluding Sun Day, that's his day off), just stop dealing with them for a bit after getting all your racks stored with bodies. And if you only have the autopsy table, just leave one on there. They won't go bad that fast if they're in the morgue.

Love watching you play this game! Keep the videos rolling!

[@MrClickity]

My biggest gripe with this game is the crafting seems to be a neverending cycle of making materials to make a workstation to make other materials etc. Aside from the church and graveyard which have very limited customization options, the only thing you can really build anywhere are containers and workstations in specific areas. You never really get a sense that you're having any impact on the world which is a huge part of what I enjoy about these kinds of games. It's all the grind with none of the sense of accomplishment. The actual gameplay is good, though. The autopsy system is fun, the shared inventory system for work areas is a huge convenience. It's also got a fair bit of charm and looks amazing. I really want to like the game and I did for awhile, but it has nowhere near the staying power of other open-world crafting games.

[@kanaverum]

MrClickity this is definitely a slower-paced game and doesn’t have a whole lot of guidance baked in. Clearly this can be frustrating, but videos like this really help a lot

[@MrClickity]

It wasn't so much a lack of guidance or the slow pace. I'm fine with that, I enjoy games like Dwarf Fortress where you pretty much have to have the wiki open while playing and it takes hours to even get started building a fort. It was more the lack of a point. There really isn't much you can actually accomplish in the game. There are a handful of options to upgrade the church but there are only a couple of spots to put any given item. Even the graveyard doesn't really give you much freedom. You can build a few specific decorations in a few specific spots but otherwise it's just graves and urn displays. You end up spending almost the entire time grinding for ingredients to build the next crafting station to build more ingredients and so on. There are no projects to complete, just more resources to gather. I guess it does have a certain "Zen rock garden" appeal where you can just turn your brain off and focus on a bunch of mindless tasks but I feel like there's very little to show for all that work. I'm about 50 hours in and everything looks pretty much exactly like it did when I started. Even the random vegetation seems to always reappear in the exact same spots so my map would probably be almost identical to yours. Compare Stardew Valley and the great variety of layouts and experiments people have done. What sort of tinkering can you do in this game, really?

[@ButterflyGhostBFG]

Yeah I see what you mean. I finished the game in about 60 hours and although I enjoyed it I'm not sure if I'll be interested in playing it again. It's not really like Stardew where you have much more scope for customising your farm and playstyle. Other than finishing a few more cheves I think I might not go back to it, it's one of those games you finish out of stubourness because it's so frustrating XD

[@wojciech91]

@@MrClickity to be fair, you are right, customization is severely limited in this game. But I think there are lore implications. Your character the keeper has been thrust into this task against his will, and all he can think about is going home to be with his love. It makes sense that the character would be dispassionate about the world and stay disconnected from it if he plans to leave all along. Right?

[@kanaverum]

MrClickity hmm yeah, I think I see what you’re saying - kind of like... what’s the term? You get to act “in the world”, but not “on the world”. Your actions don’t really have any direct impact on the world, so the world isn’t *really* changing with you - you’re just messing with the interactive widgets that are already there. Even crafting the crafting stations is really just unlocking them... I was surprised/delighted to find the abandoned cabin to the north near the coal/iron/stone/marble deposits, but this wasn’t a situation where I *chose* to make a cabin in the woods. The option to build there was already chosen for me and my only real choice was to interact with this new widget or to ignore it. Compare this to Factorio and you’re essentially looking at the difference between an open canvas and paint-by-numbers.

AND DON'T CRAFT A BLOODY BUCKET! KEEP THE BLOOD!

[@ButterflyGhostBFG]

Yeah, not having a real quest tracker was VERY annoying at first. Like if an NPC gives you information, 'meet me at this time here' or whatever and you miss it - you're screwed. Not being able to check what quality items you need to bring them etc. I really hope the devs change that, at least putting a little extra info on the 'Known NCPs' page would make it a lot easier.

Squishy Masteret yeah, I agree with Vincent. The game is great, but was really confusing for me at first. I deeply enjoy it now and really like the grind to unlocks and how I have the option to focus on a variety of topics from farming and mining, to exploring, fishing, and more :)

Squishy Masteret Yes, your first playthrough is destined to be ineffecient at first due to the amount of information is simply deduced by the player themselves and not forcefed or handheld to it. My biggest advice to help aid massive expansion into your tech tree quickly would be to focus on getting the church open for services immediately so you can quickly attain good amounts of faith and silver to fund your habits. Also unblock all the pathways under your house and the church, down here is your alchemy laboratory and gateway to tons of relatively easy to attain blue points, through both studying items on the study table and writing on your writing desk. The red and green points come naturally so you don't have to focus your crafting to obtain them early, but you do need to focus on the blue if you want to unlock all the higher end good stuff. Also, the swamp is a major pain in the ass, so I would advise the first time you go you bring 3 planks, 6 fliches and 10 nails, you'll thank me later. P.S. Combination Prayer is OP, especially silver and gold tier.

After 10 hours in the game, you do hit a proverbial roadblock if you do not know what you are doing. I ran out of income when the donkey stopped delivering corpses.
