HOURS Wiki

Owning nothing, knowing nothing, wanting nothing. Yet, his existence more meaningful than any other.

VisitorIcon Visitor is a Host in HOURS. It is unlocked by completing Light Beneath Closed Eyes with the first five Hosts: InvaderIcon Invader, ProphetIcon Prophet, WitnessIcon Witness, ArtisanIcon Artisan, and VestigeIcon Vestige.

During Resident Mind's second phase in Light Beneath Closed Eyes, Visitor's title and true name are revealed: "Faceless, Soulless, Depthless — Zeronil."

Appearance[]

Visitor is a navy blue, crystalline humanoid who wears what appears to be a straw hat. His "head" and the lines that run down his body brightly glow a faint purple; this property is lost when he has no Skin. He has three spikes made of the same material as his body that protrude from both of his shoulders. He wields an umbrella that has its canopy replaced by a drill and likewise uses it like the latter.

Playstyle[]

Visitor is a slow but highly durable and somewhat versatile host. It boasts better defensive capabilities than any other host thanks to its passive ability, Skin, that grants it additional armor. Its regular attacks deal fair damage but are not completely reliable. Its secondary and main damage-dealing attack, Beam, deals a high amount of damage over a short period of time and will also heal when fully cast, which gives Visitor more survivability. Burrow can be used in ways such as an opener into other attacks or to disengage from an enemy, though the latter is less reliable. Skewer can buy time for Visitor to reposition or to make an opening for the full use of Beam.

Abilities[]

  • VisitorDrill Drill [ M1 ] - Thrust the drill forward, hitting three times per attack and dealing 8 damage per hit.
  • VisitorBeam Beam [ M2 ] - Shortly wind up before firing a beam in the target direction. The beam deals 4 damage per tick and a total of 32 damage over 2 seconds. Fully channeling the attack will deal an additional 64 damage and heal for 8% of max health. Recasting the ability before it ends will cancel the channeling. Has a cooldown of 8 seconds, which occurs only after the ability finishes or is cancelled.

Trivia[]

  • Visitor is the only host in the game whose icon does not appear on his face or anywhere on his entire body.
    • Originally, Visitor had no icon at all. This was most likely due to his lack of a face.
  • During development, Visitor was known as "Amalgam." It was changed because the creator felt the new name suited him more and also sounded better.
    • In addition, Beam could be endlessly channeled and would gain power as it hit enemies and lose some upon taking damage.
  • The Full of Holes upgrade will deal damage to Bloxxerman when he initiates his final phase albeit only to his shield.
  • Beam is one of the only attacks in the game that Ronin Alpha cannot parry and Resident Mind will make no active effort to dodge.
  • Burrow cannot move Visitor outside of the main arena. Using it on the path towards the end after completing Light Beneath Closed Eyes will simply return the player back to the arena.
  • There is a card for Visitor in the game Blox Cards.
  • The Visitor's true name, 'Zeronil', is made up of the words 'zero' and 'nil', which are both synonyms for 'nothing'. This reflects his design choices and concept.
  • Unfinished Recor was supposed to be named Unfinished Record.
    • Seeing as how its name is unfinished and "unfinished" is in its name, it is possible that this was done on purpose. This also could simply be a typo.
  • The "Drill" Used by Visitor represents an Umbrella.
