Hi.
I wanna ask you guys, if you could recommend me some games with genres " Walking Simulator, Atmospheric and Story Rich ".

I want to fill my wishlist with them, cause i found joy playing this type.
Looking for similiar games to What Remains of Edith Finch, Suicide of Rachel Foster, Firewatch, Gone Home.

I appreciate any help (may others also see this thread and try those titles as well).

Dear Esther is pretty good game. I may try Old City then.

I've played 3 of the 4 above that you mention and liked them. I'd recommend these as scratching similar itch, maybe not pure walking sim though:

Event[0], Tacoma, Turing Test, Abzu, Stanley Parable, Her Story, Timeframe, Verde Station

Death Stranding? :kappa:

Edit: more seriously (and affordably), Dear Esther was recommended above, the only one I've played. I've only heard good things about Stanley Parable, so a +1 from me too; and I'll add Last Day of June to the recommendations list.
New edit: I forgot I played Firewatch for an hour or two at a friend's place. Very nice, too. Also saw Ethan Carter in a comment below; didn't play it yet, was given on Epic. Heard lots of good things about it.

These are all the same style with heavy story, point&click style gameplay, choice & consequences, and light puzzle solving-

Telltale's The Walking Dead Also has sequels and a spinoff game
Life is Strange Also has a newer remastered version and sequels/spinoffs
Telltale's The Wolf Among Us

point & click adventures aren't walking sims.

I own only Suicide of Rachel Foster and I never played it yet, so I'm not sure that's what you're looking for, but maybe something like this:

I know FranckCastle suggested it above already, But I would genuinely recommend Death Stranding. It fills those tags perfectly.

I may be a little bias as I have 100% the game, and have about 120 hours in total across the original and directors cut. But I genuinely very much enjoyed the game. It does well to evoke emotion, and to build this 'real-world adjacent' but still foreign world.

The atmosphere and aesthetic is quite well done, and the story is quite in-depth, and is also the primary driving force for progression in the game. While the gameplay might not be for everyone, it is definitely a walking sim.

Not direct recommendations, but here's a tip; I find the following site gives better "similar games" than steam itself, so here are the results for the games you mentioned:

You can also tune the search by playing around with the search params, like excluding specific tags (say horror), etc.

Was gonna recommend The Suicide of Rachel Foster and Gone Home, but you already did so I'll just give this one a +1.

Here are some you didn't mention that I have played and enjoyed. Some of these may be a bit more interactive than what you are looking for. A Story About My Uncle is missing the walking simulator tag, but all the other games have walking simulator, atmospheric and story rich tags.

Last Day of June - Has puzzles.
Life is Strange
Tell Me Why
SOMA
What Never Was - Short, free, introduction to what will hopefully turn into a full game at some point.
A Story About My Uncle - Has some action with platforming and swinging with a grappling hook.
Kona - Has survival aspects
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter

Oh yeah, What Never Was was nice. Completed it in an hour or so, I think.

Town of Light and Ethan Carter and Dear Esther are going to be closest to the games you mentioned.

Lake Ridden, The Station and Titan Station looks like it should work for me. I already played The Park long time ago, maybe i'll replay this on steam.
