  • The game features cute graphics and a simple hack and slash gameplay that can be entertaining for a few hours.
  • It offers a variety of mechanics, including upgrading equipment and using special attacks, which can provide some tactical depth.
  • For those looking for a mindless grind, it serves as a decent time-waster, especially if purchased at a low price.
  • The game is riddled with bugs, crashes frequently, and lacks basic technical features like resolution options, making it frustrating to play.
  • Gameplay is repetitive and shallow, with little variety in enemies or mechanics, leading to a monotonous experience.
  • It feels like a poorly executed mobile port, lacking the depth and quality expected from a PC game, and many players have shown little interest in it.
  • story9 mentions

    The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth, with players noting it features minimal narrative content and feels more like a series of repetitive tasks than a cohesive plot. The presence of a character who provides quests and sells items is seen as superficial, and the overall experience is compared unfavorably to mobile games, lacking artistic merit or engaging storytelling.

    • “The game has pretty much 0 story; you are a knight tossed in multiple arenas.”
    • “But honestly, it's barely better than playing slot machines to win monopoly money - in many ways, a distillation of modern games to their fundamentals without any illusions of art or story.”
    • “The English translations are poor, and all in all, with the daily missions and store to purchase items with gems, it seems more like a mobile game.”
  • graphics7 mentions

    The graphics in Grave Keeper are described as cute and featuring decent chibi-style artwork, but overall, they are considered basic and lack the quality expected from modern games. The game suffers from a lack of resolution options and graphical tweaks, contributing to a shallow visual experience that does not compensate for its gameplay shortcomings.

    • “Decent chibi type artwork, with one exception.”
    • “The art style of this one picture is totally different from the entire rest of the game.”
    • “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
    • “It's far below the state of the art visuals gamers expect as a result of their decisions.”
    • “The graphics are cute, but there's little else to recommend the game.”
  • gameplay4 mentions

    The gameplay is criticized for being basic and shallow, especially in contrast to the high-quality graphical assets, leading to a disconnect between visual appeal and interactive experience. While the game runs smoothly on various systems, users have reported technical issues, such as controller malfunctions, which detract from the overall enjoyment.

    • “Game looks good, with bugs: my controller stopped responding several times and I had to close the game (an original Xbox controller). Gameplay looks okay and runs smoothly on pretty much anything; it has almost everything that I would like to spend a few hours in this game.”
    • “The credits page only cites two developers for this, but if you look at all the graphical assets and compare the quality of those to the incredibly basic, shallow, bare minimum gameplay, it doesn't add up.”
    • “Why would they put so much effort into creating those assets and then not bother with any gameplay to go along with it?”
    • “However, the mechanics don't change.”
  • grinding4 mentions

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and repetitive, often suggesting that it's more efficient to save resources and avoid excessive farming. While some appreciate the game's charm, many feel that the grinding detracts from the overall experience, making it feel dull and monotonous.

    • “It's the perfectly dull, boring, and repetitive game with nothing but grinding in it.”
    • “Cute little game, although a bit grindy.”
    • “Don't waste your time farming; go easy on upgrades and save cash.”
  • monetization1 mentions

    Reviews indicate concerns about the monetization strategy, suggesting that while there is no definitive proof of exploitation, the game's quality resembles that of asset flips or cash grabs, raising doubts about its value and integrity.

    • “There's no hard evidence, so we need to give the benefit of the doubt... regardless, asset flip or not, the quality here is indistinguishable from many asset flip/cash grab scams, and that's a problem in itself.”
  • stability1 mentions

    The game is reported to have significant stability issues, with users frequently encountering bugs that affect gameplay.

    • “It's also really, really buggy.”
