No, you started a Steam post with a quote from The Silmarillion! YOU'RE the nerd!
...Okay okay maybe not in this case. Regardless, a quick update to let you know that the long-awaited OST for BOOK OF HOURS is out now, with a 10% launch discount for anyone who gets it in the first week.
The album features twenty-five remastered tracks from the game, arranged by its composer, Maribeth Solomon, herself. It's totally beautiful, and we've tried to keep some of the game's sense of seasonal change in the track listing. An extra bundle of Christmas candles to anyone who can guess AK's and my favourite tracks.
The OST costs $10.99 / 8.99 / 9.99 and is available now. Go forth and float by the shores of Brancrug.

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 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.
Weather Factory is a two-person dev team supported by many brilliant freelancers. BOOK OF HOURS was partially funded by the European Union's Creative Europe Programme - MEDIA. Thank you, Europe! We love you. ♥
