Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 56.83/day in the week to Jul 17 → 3.29/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

It's better than Cultist Simulator, but also suffers from some of the same flaws as Cultist Simulator. If you disliked Cultist Simulator I don't expect you'd like Book of Hours. Overall the game is similar - uncover occult mysteries, via game mechanics that are initially confusing but which you gradually work out. The player's experience with the mechanics of the game mirrors the protagonist's progress through the game. What makes the game better than cultist simulator is the broadening of mechanics. As well as researching mysterious secrets, you're exploring rooms of a mansion, and doing some gathering/crafting. Apparently Book of Hours is more forgiving than Cultist Simulator. It is difficult to find the items you need. The main tool seems to be visually scanning the map for items that highlight when you mouse over a related icon. However you typically want to find things that match two icons, not just one. The answer seems to be a lot of physically rearranging items into different rooms, in order to group things to make searching easier. However the rooms in the house don't hold many items. This is all rather awkward. Overall, expect heavy note-taking, and lots of waiting for shortish timers to finish.

永恒确实很美好,但是历史的自由才是我的最爱 “这重历史是我最后、最伟大的作品。这座梦寐已久之城将于存在之外安然无恙,由悖论保护。 乌有城建于悖论的基石之上;它的城墙为纸;它的护城河为墨。我是它律法的侍从,是它无王宝座的臣属;且我并非孤身一人。”
I have spent a horrifying number of hours in this game so I feel qualified to state that it is an absolutely delightful experience. The lore is so deep, the vibes are immaculate, and while the learning curve is a bit steep, it is 100% worth sticking with. If you found Cultist Simulator a bit intimidating, don't worry, this is far more chill. Additionally, the devs are extremely responsive to accessibility requests -- I emailed them requesting a feature and they rolled it out in the next update.
One of the most engrossing and maximalist stories I've ever played. The anti-canon approach that the writer uses is incredibly clever. Amazing game from top to bottom. Frustrating at times but very, very rewarding. Will definitely come back to it.
特别没意思,和上一作玩法差别挺大的不是同类型游戏了 游戏内每天时间速度都得调,缩放没办法自由缩放只有固定的缩放大小,房间和村庄个隔着距离很远的桥,来回拉很不方便,位置拉扯只能右键,很不方便,玩起来过于繁琐也没有教程 集密教糟粕于大成,去其精华剧情,和密教的联系就是同一世界观部分客串人物和图标,彻底成解谜游戏了
Well, i was always a crackhead when it comes to esoteric lovecrafting games, and I have played other gamers from the main writer, and boy, he does deliver. I particulary like Book of Hours a lot more then Cultist Simulator cause it is very rewarding when you being to understand the lore without being so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stressful. Anyway, i love it, it is a slow burner style, so if you interested, know that action is not a part of the game.
I wanted to like it but didn't manage to. The content is interesting and I like the lore but the management aspect is tedious and the visuals are uninspiring
比起前作去掉了那些个追着玩家屁股后面索命的倒计时,除非刻意否则几乎不可能死 但卡关就不好说了,真有人不看wiki能玩通关吗?局内甚至连个图鉴都没有,我都当图书管理员了,不能给我看过的书编个目录?后面分类多了想找哪一类回忆的书都要翻半天,书没法集中真的好痛苦 最近出的那个类密教的炼金游戏就有个收纳功能,真的很建议后续加入
