Description


For fifteen centuries, Hush House was a fortress of knowledge. Until the fire. The collection is ruined, and the last Librarian is gone. Only one with your unique talents can rebuild the library.

BOOK OF HOURS is an elegant, melancholy, combat-free RPG set in an occult library, from the creator of Fallen London, Sunless Sea and the double BAFTA-nominated Cultist Simulator.

Enjoy the sweet peace of organising books and customising your new home, all while unpeeling centuries of history from the occult stones about you.

The Librarian's influence extends far beyond the walls of Hush House. It's up to you to determine how history is written.



In this 20 - 40 hour game, you'll:

ACQUIRE, RESTORE and CATALOGUE occult books, scrolls and curiosities.

STUDY the nine Wisdoms, and conquer the nine Elements of the Soul.

GUIDE visitors who come seeking your assistance, choosing their paths and stories.

EXPLORE the Secret Histories and the pantheon of Hours that rules them.

RESTORE a vast crumbling edifice built on the foundations of an ancient abbey.

WREST your past from obscurity. Choose from nine different Legacies which determine who you are. You might be a Magnate, abandoning wealth to seek peace. Or an Archaeologist, fleeing the curse you awoke. Or perhaps your origins are more esoteric, like the Symurgist, or Twiceborn? Each playthrough offers different opportunities.

A brilliant world to get lost in

Like Cultist Simulator, this is a rich narrative experience told through hundreds of snippets of flavour text. I have a love/hate relationship with the fact that playing this game requires the wiki (or, if you prefer, taking exhaustive external notes from scratch), but ultimately it conjures up enough of an atmosphere that I just can't stop playing.

addictive. esoteric. puzzles

Great game. I spend so much time on a single day, and I usually get all that time back in neat discoveries. There's so much depth in everything

One eye shut and half a brain as well?

"Behind every word is a hidden meaning"... Fortunately for some, they have both eyes open. Not recommended
