All Sims 4 Werewolf Books And Where To Find Therm

The Sims 4: Werewolves introduced werewolves to the Sims 4 series. While werewolves had been in the franchise since the Sims 2, they’d never been so powerful, outrageous, and just a pack of howling fun before this. Filled with vim and vigor from their power tree, werewolves are chock-full of both interesting interactions and interesting lore.

The Sims 4: Life & Death – All New Cheat Codes

The Sims 4: Life & Death added tons of new content to the game. Here, you can find relevant cheats to this expansion.

The presence of lore in The Sims 4 is enough to get many players excited, but the backstories in this pack are incredibly detailed. From ties with spellcasters and vampires to the origins of the two new werewolf packs (and that mysterious Greg figure), there’s a lot to explore, and books are the best place to start.

New Werewolf Books

Research Before You Rampage

Werewolf books can be hard to find if you aren’t sure what you’re looking for. We have a list included in this very article, but for those who want to find some themselves, there are some clues to be had in the titles. They usually have something to do with werewolves or the moon. If there’s something spooky or furry involved in the books, chances are they are a werewolf book.

What this doesn’t reveal, though, is where to find all of these books. Only some of them can be purchased right away. Others have to be discovered. As it turns out, there are plenty of ways to uncover these new tomes – and the werewolf secrets they contain.

Purchasing Werewolf Books

A Bite-Sized Read

A male Sim looks at a bookshelf while purchasing books.

Like any other books, some werewolf titles can be purchased from a computer or book case. All the Base Game compatible books are available this way. You can also find some Werewolves-exclusive books here, but without the Werewolves game pack installed, you won’t see the pop-up text.

These werewolf mods for The Sims 4 will leave you howling.

If you’re looking for a lunar epiphany, some of these werewolf-centric books will get you closer; you might have to read them more than once, though. Once you unlock Lunar Epiphany, you’ll get more out of the books you read — finally, those special characters will make sense!

Lunar Epiphany is vital to curing your Sim of being a werewolf, so make sure to focus on reading books if that’s a priority.

Scavenging For Werewolf Books

Because Just Buying Them Is Boring

Scavenging is another new werewolf ability, which can be unlocked with the Scavenger ability in the abilities tree. But to find the real treasure — the secret stuff, if you will — werewolves will have to unlock the Enhanced Smell ability first.

Use the Enhanced Smell trait to “Smell Here.” A sort of smoke cloud will appear above spots where treasure is located. Click on those spots and choose “Scavenge Ground” to find treasure. You might find a secret book — maybe even a diary? Maybe not, though. Can’t know for sure until you get digging.

Travel Underground

Get Tunnel Vision

The Sims 4 Werewolf Power Tree is shown as it focuses on the Tunneler power.

Underground tunnels pop up around Moonwood Mill, and once you get familiar enough with the system, you can save a lot of time wandering around by traveling between them. Exploring these tunnels is similar to the choose-your-own-adventure pop-ups that occur when you explore new locations in Selvadorada, or the secret worlds in Willow Creek and Oasis Springs.

A lesser-known (but equally cool) thing to know, though, is that you can also find books here. It will take a decent amount of exploring and a bit of luck, but the Night Vision ability makes things easier. This ability makes it easier to see at night, so you won’t be held up by tunnels with debris, it won’t be too rusty to sift through, and you can actually find things.

The Night Vision ability will be available to purchase once your werewolf Sim reaches the Omega level.

Check In With Your Pack

Hang Out With The Gang

A Sim talks to Kristopher Volkov, the leader of a werewolf pack.

Ranking up in your pack of choice might also unlock a new book or two. For example, when Jacob Volkov reached the Omega rank in the Moonwood Collective, he received a complimentary copy of The Good Boy.
