The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A slow, meditative journey of solitude and quiet discovery as you meticulously restore a ruined library, uncovering occult secrets through careful reading and crafting without any combat or pressure.

What players say
Players are split on Book of Hours: some adore its cryptic, note-taking-heavy pace and beautiful eldritch writing, others find it impossibly opaque with no tutorial and little sense of progress. It rewards methodical players who enjoy figuring out obtuse systems on their own, but the same deliberate lack of clarity leaves many feeling stuck and frustrated.
