Looking for some top-down walking sims.

[ReddKasette]

Looking for a specific genre of top-down (or isometric) walking sim/ adventure/ investigative/ visual novel games. Preferably with no (or very minimal) inventory, no leveling system, no fighting/combat and no point-and-click. Something along the lines of:

-Deadeus - GB
-Burried Behind the Cabin - GB
-Pine Creek - GBC
-The Year After - GBC
-Neighbor - GBC
-Ihatovo Monogatari - SNES ~My personal favorite so far. Justice for Stove Cat! (╥‸╥)
-Private Eye Dol - TG-CD

Not really specific to what I'm lookin for, but close enough to be honorable mentions:

-Ginga Ojousama Densetu 1 and 2 - TG-CD (Not top-down and has combat, but extremely minimal)
-A Grave Encounter - GB (Has a dodge system for combat, but very minimal)
-Detective Conan: The Mechanical Temple Murder Case - GBC
-Detective Conan: The Legendary Treasure of Strange Rock Island - GBC

Currently playing on a Miyoo Mini, so must be PSX and under. English only. Also very open to Homebrews! Bonus points for cuteness!

Any recommendations and suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!! <3

The only game I can think of is a homebrew called Dichotomy. I haven’t played it myself, but from what I understand it’s purely walking and exploring — no combat or inventory. Here’s a link if you want to check it out!: https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/Dichotomy_GB

Speaking of GBC homebrew, try Opossum Country and A Dark Winter Wander. I think those fit the description perfectly.

Thank you for the recommendations, but I'm specifically looking for games that run on older consoles up to Playstation 1. My poor little Miyoo Mini can't run games any newer than that, but thank you though! <3

*Also for anyone lurking, I'd add SOMA and What Remains of Edith Finch to their amazing list!*
