Graveyard Shift is a single-player, 18-card dungeon-crawling game. The goal is the survive through all 17 graveyard cards without losing all of your life!

There is a blue moon rising in the night sky as you arrive for your shift at the local graveyard. A fog rolls in from the forest surrounding the gravestones as you get ready for the night. Suddenly you hear a bellowing noise from somewhere outside. You fill up your trusty lantern with oil, just in case, and light it as you brave out into the night....it is your job to keep the grounds safe, but what will save you from what's out there?

Start by taking your trust lantern, life & oil tokens. Shuffle the graveyard cards and flip one over. Roll the die to determine the outcome of the event on the card, or to defeat a creature of the night; some cards could possess both! Use the oil tokens to help change the fate of your roll, and survive all the cards without losing your 3 life tokens to win!

This is the first game in "The Graveyard Shift" series, that shares the same title and this edition is nicknamed 'Graveyard'.
