Nightsoil
1854 London. A cholera-ravaged city. One last night shift before an old gong farmer leaves it all behind. Walk the streets with him and his loyal horse Ol' Boy, and uncover the story of a man who became the city's unwanted hero. A short, atmospheric narrative journey.
“The horse tosses its dark, pale-striped head and nibbles at the hem of the man’s coat in hope of a scrap of bread. The man gazes silently at the still street. Beneath his thick brows, his sorrowful eyes grow moist as he drifts into memories of how it all began.”
Nightsoil is a short, atmospheric narrative adventure about memory, duty, and the bond between a man and his horse. Step into one of London's most forgotten professions on the night everything ends.
