BOOK OF HOURS

I love a game that is convoluted and weird and asks you to try and make sense of its esoteric world and systems. Unfortunately for Book of Hours, all its systems are annoying and boring, and discoveries don't fill me with "Aha!", they fill me with "who cares??" Also, every part of its UI and controls is designed with pinpoint precision to annoy me as much as possible. I get a headache just thinking about it. Some text windows have scroll bars, but they don't recognize the scroll wheel so you zoom into the map instead on accident, so you gotta click and hold the scroll bar to scroll down, but don't release it over the text or it thinks you wanna click the text which copies it to your pastebin and shows you a notification in the middle of your screen, and you have no button to remove that, just one that never shows that notification ever again, and I don't want that, so you move your hand to the esc key to get it away and I honestly don't remember if that actually removes notifications or not. The game seems like it has alot of heart, and I wanna like it, but jesus christ dude

J’étais déjà fan de Cultist Simulator, mais Book of Hours m’a totalement conquise ! Le gameplay est beaucoup plus chill, pas besoin de se presser, on prend le temps de lire nos livres occultes et d’aider quelques passants de temps en temps. Le jeu permet aussi d’approfondir le lore de l’univers, et j’adore l’ambiance beaucoup plus cosy et détendue que Book of Hours propose <3

Si vous pensez jouer à toute vitesse... oubliez. Prenez des notes (c'est préférable), soyez méthodique, lisez TOUT (et notez-en une bonne partie), notez/apprenez les caractéristiques de ce que vous trouvez dans le jeu. La description de l'univers est utile pour remplir divers objectifs. Heureusement, on peut sauvegarder quand on veut : c'est une bonne idée de sauvegarder avant une action risquée. Bref. Un jeu prenant, pour lequel il faut de la patience et de l'investissement;

I gave a guy tea that had been sitting in my driveway for months and he helped me clean out my garage.
