The Graveyard is a computer art game developed by Belgian developer Tale of Tales in which the player assumes the role of an elderly woman walking through a graveyard to a bench.[2] A song begins to play, after which the elderly woman walks out of the graveyard and the game ends.[1] The difference between the free trial and the full game is that in the full game, every time it is played there is a small chance the elderly woman dies of natural causes.[3]

The Graveyard was nominated for the Innovation Award in the Independent Games Festival 2009 [4] The Graveyard was one of the inspirations for the "peaceful village" scene in Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.[5]
