* One of the Imperial City sidequests in ''[[The Elder Scrolls]] IV: Oblivion'' sees you investigating a trader who sells stuff at ridiculously low prices. It turns out, his "goods" were actually supplied by the local grave digger gang.

* Quite a few ''Zelda'' games have Link go into tombs or graves to find items. One of the better known times is in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time]]'', when he goes into the former keeper of the Graveyard's tomb and races the ghost to get the hookshot (on the other hand, the ghost willingly hands it over, so does that count?) A more obvious example in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask]]'' would be on the Third Day, when the keeper of ''that'' graveyard breaks into the Royal Family tomb and not only openly admits to Link that he is looking for treasure hidden there, he asks Link to help him.

* One early quest in ''[[Kingdom of Loathing]]'' requires you to rob the grave of a deceased legendary wizard so you can get the key to his tower. Humorously, before you can rob his grave, you have to win a grave robbing shovel from another enemy in the area called a grave rober (yes, it's supposed to be spelled like that, the area in question is the Misspelled Cemetary). And later on, you can fight grave rober zmobies, who keep trying to rob their OWN graves, and get pissed and attack you out of frustration because they keep failing to find anything to rob.

* You need to dig up several graves in ''[[King's Quest IV]]'', although you return the items to ghosts to which they belong so it's not ''exactly'' stealing.
