About

Soil Song is a 2-player game where each player embodies an adorable compost dweller; a bacterial decomposer and a worm recycler. Traverse through a garden compost heap together, interacting with different types of organic matter to break them down using your unique abilities.

Experience the transformation of the environment over time as the seasons pass and you diligently work to keep the compost pile healthy, vibrant and harmonious.

Foster a sense of cooperation, communication, and mutual understanding between players, mirroring the interconnected and collaborative nature of regenerative farming practices.

Thanks for playing! Lag spikes seem to be an issue with the web build. Download option is much more performant.
