Death has retired from collecting souls, and now he keeps the grounds. Mowing grass by lantern light, scrubbing centuries of moss from forgotten headstones, and vacuum autumn leaves into oblivion across fifteen moonlit plots. A cozy isometric chore game with no timers, no enemies, and no stress.

After an eternity of reaping, the Grim Reaper has hung up the scythe for something gentler: keeping the parish graveyard. The Groundskeeper is a cozy, spooky chore game about tending moonlit cemeteries, one plot at a time — and about the spirits who notice someone finally cares.
Ghost Mower — glide through long, overgrown grass and leave neat, short turf behind you.
Spray & Brush — scrub moss, lichen and soot from weathered headstones with a bottle of holy water until every name reads again.
Leaf Basket — draw drifts of autumn leaves into your wicker basket and haul them to the compost bin.
Flowerbeds — pull out the dead stalks, soak the soil, and watch rows of snapdragons burst into bloom.
Hedge Shears — clip scraggly bushes, snip by snip, into one of five spooky designs.
Work your way from The Old Yard, a crooked little village churchyard, through the long rows of Chapel Row, to the windswept crypts of Crypt Hill. New chores arrive gently as you go, and every visit lays the plot out fresh — headstones, trees, flowerbeds and hedges are never in quite the same place twice.
Finish a plot and linger a while: a spirit may rise at a grave to talk. Twenty ghosts wait to be met — some funny, some sad, a few deeply unsettling — and every conversation is kept in your Ghost Journal. Replay plots to find them all.
Earn Grave Coins for every chore and spend them on [b]ten upgrades[/b]: wider mower decks, a stronger spray, a deeper basket, faster boots, and gardening gear for the flowerbeds.
Adopt [b]spirit companions[/b] — a ghost cat, a crypt bat, a faithful hound, a grave wolf, a churchyard serpent and a spirit tiger — who follow you around the grounds.
Chain chores into a streak for bonus bounties.
Time Challenge mode turns every plot into a speed run, with Bronze, Silver and Gold targets, best times, and medal rewards to chase.
Cute and spooky sometric art, warm lantern light and a moonlit night sky that changes with each ground
A gentle music-box waltz written to sit behind you for hours
A guided training plot that teaches every tool
