It's hard to recommend this game because the PC port is absolute garbage that requires sorcery to work, an even then some mechanics such as driving and combat are questionable.
The reason why you would want to endure all of this is for the atmosphere and writing, specially the side stories that flesh out the people in the town. I found this aspect of the game very compelling and is what pushed me to spend several in-game days sleeping in a graveyard and subsisting on canned pickles just so I could complete all the sidequests.
If that means anything to you then maybe you'll enjoy Deadly Premonition too.
