This game is a first-person Japanese horror game.
The game is set in the late summer of the 2000s in rural Japan.
The main character, "Misaki," got a job and started living alone.However, her work didn't go well, so she quit her job and returned to her parents' house.
That day, Misaki was soaking in her heartbreak at the park where she used to play when she was in elementary school because she hadn't made any progress in cleaning up after moving.
Then, Misaki notices that the door to the path leading to the forest, which is normally closed, is open.
"I wonder what's going on beyond that..."
Misaki walks off into the forest as if something is calling her.
Misaki knows that she is not supposed to enter the place, but she does.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The atmosphere is really intense and foreboding, you can almost taste the humidity in the air, it's suffocating. The use of light and colour are very effective, creating these intense contrasts and deep shadows that play tricks with your eyes. The dread is subtle and effortless. The game does have a few spooky encounters and a vague story, both of which are passable, but they are a distraction from the immersion. If you play this game, play it slowly and explore, don't rush. Rare excellent horror game.4 found this helpful
里帰り | Satogaeri is a J-Horror walking simulator developed by とらんぽ（Torampo), a freelance game developer and released on Steam around late November of 2021. I don’t personally know much about this game developer as I don’t really speak Japanese or read Japanese or know…basically anything Japanese aside from the origins of a variety of my favorite media series like Yakuza, Silent Hill, Resident Evil and J-Horror movies like The Ring or The Grudge. However, what I do know is that I originally found this game through a friend of mine, Scott’s Game Asylum, wishlisting it on Steam. As someone who is into J-Horror and walking simulators, I figured I’d give it a wishlist. I bought this game around Christmas of 2023 to stream in the future for a friend of mine along with other games like Eschaton and That Which Gave Chase and then ended up playing it tonight before delving into Nightmare of Decay. I’m going to start with the gameplay here mainly because it can be summarized in one sentence: “It’s very linear, you can only pick up a few things, and the only reason you’d get confused is if you can’t read Japanese.” Literally, not understanding Japanese is the only reason why one would take mo…3 found this helpful
Like the first game, it is very unique. But this time you really need to speak Japanese (or use a walkthrough) to play it. I like it.
Well, that is not bad, but would be great if story was more detailed. もっと詳しいストーリーが欲しいです。 https://youtu.be/zCCt8PZ6XWA
don't know know where the developer has gone but love the games
I don't understand japanese but the game was very intuitive. It's short, dark and scary. My heart was really pumping for this one, I really liked it!
