Learn the weekly sin calendar in Graveyard Keeper 2, rotating every 45 minutes across six active sin days for town battles, church sermons, and trade.

Calendar Rotation and Daytime Cycles

In Graveyard Keeper 2, time progression follows a dedicated calendar where days are represented by unique celestial icons tied to the deadly sins. An active day indicator remains visible in the upper-left corner of the interface. Each separate day lasts exactly 7.5 minutes of real time, meaning a full weekly cycle completes in 45 minutes. Every transition brings distinct background atmosphere and audio cues that signal which regional activities and vendor interactions become available across the world.

  • Gluttony: Dedicate efforts toward municipal public relations and operating the PR Machine.
  • Sloth: Host and defend during weekly Town Battles as hostiles mobilize or withdraw.
  • Lust: Complete merchant deliveries, including the Green Scroll for Linda and Keys for Looters for Davy the Dagger.
  • Envy: Perform reanimation rites to create new zombies in the Resurrection Lab, or harvest fresh New Blue Crystals in the Swamp during recurring electrical storms.
  • Pride: Fulfill commercial town orders through the Town Warehouse district.
  • Wrath: Conduct congregation sermons at the local Church to collect Faith and donations.

Church Sermons and Faith on Wrath Day

The Church is situated within the cemetery grounds and remains sealed until the Nun arrives. Before services can commence, players must clear 4 internal blockages, with each obstruction requiring 1x Bronze Detail, 1x Board, and Orange mastery 2 to be cleared. Upgrading the sanctuary via the Church Blueprint Desk increases overall quality: craft an Interior Bench I with 2x Wooden Plank and 6x Bronze Nails under Church Cleaning, install Improve the Church I with 8x Board and 6x Piece of stone, construct a Choir using 4x Oiled Plank, 2x Bronze Detail, and 4x Music Notes, or erect a Confession Booth II with 6x Oiled Plank and 9x Bronze Detail.

Every Wrath day, the Keeper conducts a formal ceremony at the altar using unlocked prayers. Congregants attend based on sanctuary ratings, leaving behind vital Faith and monetary donations upon conclusion. Accumulating Faith is mandatory for unlocking theological milestones — our faith guide covers sermon upgrades and sanctuary improvements in full detail.

Town Battles, Warehouse Orders, and Resurrections

On Sloth morning, a recurring bell tolls as enemy forces withdraw toward the central settlement, marking the designated window for engaging in defensive Town Battles — review our town battles walkthrough to set up barricades and summon squads.

Economic exchanges peak on Pride, when players deliver goods for town orders at the Town Warehouse (detailed in the town gratitude guide). Meanwhile, Envy unlocks biological and alchemical milestones: players venture to the Resurrection Lab to assemble new undead laborers (see how to make zombies), while swamp exploration uncovers crystallized tears amid scheduled lightning strikes.
