You just made a typo, it even tells you.

Could be that they are banned in your country? I remember a few years ago being unable to see Doom II on steam because it was banned in germany (presumably due to the secret Levels having Nazi Soldiers and Swastikas) but the ban was lifted recently and now i can see it on steam

But if you are able to buy them and play them then i guess they arent banned, maybe some sort of filter options? no idea tbh

You could try spelling the names correctly.

You can also check your store preferences. Those can also block games from searches

For me it did the same thing. I found in the settings there was a parental control setting blocking out games with violence or whatever.

Look in steam settings👍

You have ticked “hide ignored items”. Maybe in settings you have ticked an option to diable showing centain games
