This was in itch.io's Racial Justice Bundle (AKA The Bundle,) which we're still slowly working on sorting through (even though The Bundle 2 for Palestinian relief efforts is now a thing, aaaa.) On the other hand, it's a short little free browser thing you can play just by going to the product page anyway, so being in The Bundle doesn't really do anything except remind you that it exists as you're sorting through Bundle pages. On the other other hand, that is an important perk, since I'd completely forgotten about it and then I saw it again and was like "oh yeah" and went and played it and actually beat it this time. So the ploy worked, I guess?
Anyway.
A Kishoutenketsu in the countryside is a short and sweet little walkaround puzzle game. There are four keys hidden in the various directions you can go from the starting point. Most of them are hidden behind some manner of block puzzle. Once you have all four, you can enter the final area, which has a nice callback mixture puzzle of all the different types of puzzles you've encountered in the four key puzzles, and then you make it to your house and have some hot chocolate and enjoy the rest of the day, the end.
Not much to say about this one, I guess. The puzzles were neat. One of the keys was really hard to find and took a hint or two from the comments before I finally got it. The end part is very satisfying. I really enjoyed this overall, and since it's like right there, there's no reason why you shouldn't too.
