Does anyone have any Japanese horror game suggestions?

I usually prefer games that lean more into paranoia rather than action and guns, but I am also into action horror! Dark Deception has a lot of "action". I noticed some more obscure Japanese horror games lean into paranoia instead of guns and a bunch of chasing like most mainstream horror I feel like, correct me if I'm wrong. So if anyone has any suggestions let me know

𝓴𝓲𝓻𝓪_𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓪𝔀𝓫𝓮𝓻𝓻𝔂	2 hours ago (edited) Report PLAY HOMICIPHER OMGG- it’s one of my fave Japanese horror games I love it so much I was even one of the ghost last Halloween 😭😭 just a warning tho like if u actually play, the creator literally had to stop making new chapters because the fandom was so bad <\3 so like if u research the game and see a bunch of freaky shit I promise you the actual game isn’t like that 😭😭😭 ooohh this game looks really cool.. Ill definitely check it out!! thank you!!! shame the creator stopped making chapters by Email; 1 hour ago (edited); Report I played the demo and it was really fun im gonna buy the full game eventually! thank youuu for recommending this to me 🥹🥹 by Email; 1 hour ago (edited); Report OFCCC ENJOY!!! :))) by 𝓴𝓲𝓻𝓪_𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓪𝔀𝓫𝓮𝓻𝓻𝔂; 56 minutes ago (edited); Report
skuromii	2 hours ago (edited) Report Omg indie games r like that too tbh I recommend any chillaart studio and taintedpact games and the one n only fears to fathom 🥹 I think chillas art is Japanese so if u haven't heard of that one u should totally check it out Also japanese horror games aren't the only games that lean into thriller/paranoia psychological themes...😭 Thank you thank you!! I'll definitely look into it more! Also the reason why I ask for Japanese specifically is because I like the style of japanese horror with like pale-faced monsters and what not, instead of large grotesque bloody dead by daylight monster. I am aware some japanese horror has those monsters but i do prefer the style that most obscure japanese horror has. games that lean on paranoia in general is really cool though but im lookin for a style yknow lol by Email; 1 hour ago (edited); Report
