First author: Deane
Year: 2021


Abstract

This article argues that Lazy Bear Games’ Graveyard Keeper“ (2018) engages in a critical dialogue with the farm game genre by reformulating the nostalgic ideal as one mired in exploitation and the grotesque, thereby opening new and uncanny avenues through which to consider the farm game’s instrumentalizing premises.
