Gameplay Mods
These mods change the gameplay of Graveyard Keeper 2. We recommend learning the game's basic rules first, and only then simplifying or removing individual mechanics.
Skipping the Fishing Mini-Game
This mod lets you pull fish out of the river automatically. A good option for those who find the local mini-games annoying.
Automatic Crafting

Interface and Controls Mods
These mods make it more convenient to control every aspect of the game. They will come in handy both for newcomers and for those who have already mastered the rules of the second Graveyard Keeper.
Quick Access to All Chests
Lets you manage all storage containers and chests from one place without having to look for them all over the map. A useful feature at any stage of the game, since it saves you a lot of unnecessary actions.
Carrying Several Heavy Items at Once
Removes the limit on dragging large objects. In the original game, you can't carry more than one. After installing the mod, the number goes up to 10. You can change this value if you want.
Faster Character Movement
The mod has many features. You can simply speed up the hero's movement, add sprinting, or make him run all the time. Energy will not be consumed.
Balance Mods
Install these with care. There is a risk that you will make the game too easy and lose interest in it as a result. So we recommend first understanding how the economy works in Graveyard Keeper 2, and only then changing individual parameters.
Full Refund for Demolished Buildings
In the original game, part of the resources spent on construction is lost when you demolish a building. With this mod, you will get back all the materials used when dismantling supported objects. As a result, you can experiment more often with the layout of buildings in the graveyard and its surroundings.
Moving Buildings Without Demolition or Resource Loss
Another way to arrange the buildings in the graveyard and its surroundings more wisely. You may need to move a building because of a mistake or new plans for the area. The mod lets you change their location without penalties or demolition.
Larger Inventory and Storage
This mod makes specialized storage for logs, stone blocks, and other large items more spacious. This way, you will save space and resources on building additional storage.
A separate mod expands the player's own inventory.
You can also adjust how many items fit in a single slot.
Custom Day and Night Length
Lets you set the exact length of night and day. This is especially relevant for those who found the standard seven and a half minutes too short. With this mod, you will no longer have to rush and will be able to get everything you planned done before sunset.
Trade Control
Lets you set prices manually and get rid of sudden price drops or spikes. In addition, you get control over the supply of raw materials and various items to local shops.
Faster Progression
A simple mod that increases the number of science points you get when disassembling and studying items. As a result, you will progress faster and unlock new technologies.
A separate mod lets you adjust the points you get for manual work done by the Keeper himself and the zombie workers.
More Resources
With this mod, you will get more resources when disassembling items and gathering plants and minerals. This way, you can build faster and develop the graveyard together with the nearby village.
And this mod increases the amount of resources you get when crafting.
Faster Crop Growth
A mod that speeds up the growth of plants: trees, bushes, mushrooms, and garden crops. If you want, you can push it to the maximum so that everything ripens instantly.
Insanity Bar Control
Besides simply disabling this bar, you can choose exactly how it fills up and drains. Options include removing insanity gain after specific actions, making drinks more effective, adding automatic insanity reduction over time, and much more.
Energy Management
Similar to the previous mod, but for the energy bar. You can disable it completely or reduce consumption during certain physical actions, as well as adjust how much energy food and sleep restore.
Cheat Mods
These let you control every element of the game, spawn the objects you need at any time, and remove negative effects. But keep in mind that using cheats sharply reduces interest in the playthrough. It is better to complete the story campaign first and only then experiment.
Cheat Menu
A convenient way to use cheats at any time. With a special menu, you can manage energy, stamina, and insanity, create items, unlock technologies, and much more.
To open the cheat menu, press F8 on the keyboard or L2 + R2 on the gamepad.
