whispers from the grave
A downloadable game
In 2025, twin brothers Jimmy and Noah are forced to move to a new town. While searching for work, they stumble upon a strange ad: Carmons Cemetery is looking for two new caretakers. Without telling his brother, Jimmy applies for both positions.
Soon, they are hired by the eccentric owner, Lord Robert Cornelius van Stellenberg – no questions asked, no qualifications required.
At first, their tasks seem harmless: raking leaves by day, digging graves by night.
But with each shift, the cemetery begins to change. Shadows grow longer, whispers ride the wind, and an ancient secret rises from beneath the graves…
"Whispers from the Grave" is a first-person 3D narrative game in which players take on the roles of twin siblings working as cemetery caretakers in alternating day and night shifts.
Through simple interactions and light gameplay tasks, an atmospheric story unfolds, centered around time-based events and encounters with mourners, ghosts, and mysterious happenings.

Great game enjoyed it definitely looking forward to play more of your games
Hi. I downloaded the game and started to play, but everything looked really grainy and the text was kind of blurred and hard to read. It didn't look like the screen shots. Is it a glitch? I'm on Windows 11.
Hey, thanks for reaching out and playing our game!
The grainy visual is a deliberate art style we chose for the game. However, the text should definitely not be blurry or hard to read.
Did you check your in-game resolution?
If that doesn't help, you could post a screenshot.
