A Nighttime Walk

“It is midnight. You cannot sleep. You get out of bed and look through your window. There’s the village, trees beyond that. A graveyard. Utter silence. Perhaps a walk will help you relax…”

A short piece of interactive fiction set in Gladstone’s Library in Wales, where I gave a talk about teletext, adventure games, Twine and more during the 2017 Hearth Festival. I originally thought this piece would take me a couple of weeks to finish. It ended up taking two years, on and off. Phew.

It is a short, quiet interactive story about taking a walk in the middle of the night. I took several walks in the middle of the night while at the Library. Every single one of them was excellent.
