How it feels

A slow, atmospheric walk through a dark Japanese abandoned village, relying on darkness and sound to create a tense, eerie feel.

What players say

Players say Haisonmeguri is a very short walking simulator with an unnerving atmosphere, though some find it a graphical step back from the earlier Satogaeri. The horror relies on subtle scares and found-footage vibes, but a few reviewers note goofy jumpscares and a unsatisfying ending. The game is Japanese-only, but a fan translation patch is available.
