Book of Hours is a narrative RPG released on 17 August 2023 for Linux, macOS, and Windows by indie developer Weather Factory. Set in a 1930s library off Cornwall's coast, players take on the role of a librarian tasked with restoring the vast structure. They organize texts, build tools, and uncover secrets embedded within the library’s books and architecture. The game features a card-based system like its predecessor Cultist Simulator but emphasizes a gentler setting and atmosphere.

At launch, it contained over 180,000 words, expanding the lore of the Secret Histories universe shared with Cultist Simulator, TTRPG The Lady Afterwards, and the upcoming CRPG Travelling at Night. Players interact with patrons seeking obscure truths while shaping events in this hidden realm. The game balances exploration of ancient knowledge with personal growth within a contemplative environment.
