What a weird game. EDIT: To add to this now that I've processed it a little more. The game goes in a pretty unique direction, and I don't want to spoil too much, but people picking it up for the sale may want to be aware that it's not "cozy" and it's not a management sim. There are some light management aspects, and the simple pleasure of a soothing, unhurried routine backed by relaxing music that helps create an atmosphere. And that atmosphere sets the stage for the more complicated story the game wants to tell. This is interactive fiction at its core though, not Stardew Valley. The story is a bittersweet one, which I did expect. But it gets a little strange too in ways that leave you staring at the credits going "what a weird game" when you reach the end. I'm still thinking it.

The Stillness of the Wind is a quiet, contemplative experience that focuses on solitude and routine. an elderly woman who lives alone on a farm, tending to her animals and dealing with the passage of time. The game has a unique atmosphere, with its minimalistic art style and slow paced gameplay. While it doesn't have traditional action or conflict, it beautifully captures themes of loss, memory, and change. The simple yet poignant mechanics allow players to reflect on the quiet moments of life. It’s a meditative game, though its slow nature may not appeal to everyone.

Feeling absurdly emotional about this game ;( This is not a cozy, relaxing farming game. It is not exciting. Its an emotional experience. It didnt even make me happy. I felt depressed, and awful. I was essentially playing out my worst fears. And thats why I recommend it. You are old, and you are alone, the rest of the world moves on without you, but there is joy to have in the simple life of a farmer. You have flowers to tend to, chickens and goats to take care of. You can laugh at the simple things around you. But then you find memories, buried in the desert, and the letters from home turn frightening, and your loved ones slowly stop writing. You have nightmares. The laughter and songs stop coming. The wolves come at night. The birds disappear, even your chickens from a locked coop. The storms come. The flowers die. The cheese rots in the storeroom. What did you store all that much for, are you going to live long enough to use them? She is scared, and she is alone, and the days are going by too fast for her, faster than they should. Everything she loves is disappearing slowly, and soon, she will too. This is a beautiful game about sadness and loss and the inevitability of age and death. But it is done so softly, so quietly, that the ache had settled into my heart before I even realised it.

What makes The Stillness of the Wind stand out is its emotional depth. Through letters from family members in the city, the game subtly unfolds a larger, mysterious narrative that contrasts the peace of rural life with the turmoil of the outside world. The art style is minimalist yet atmospheric, and the slow, deliberate pacing invites players to savor the moment, reflecting on themes of aging, loss, and the passage of time. The game may not be for everyone, as its slow pace and lack of traditional objectives could feel uneventful to some. However, for those who appreciate quiet, contemplative experiences, The Stillness of the Wind offers a poignant and intimate journey that lingers long after the game ends.

The game was frustrating most of the times, but it was bittersweet. The days felt long and tiresome since Talma is so slow. But then I started to miss the amount of chores when the days became bleaker. The dialogues and pages (of books, maybe) felt extremely personal and beautiful. The letters were all sweet except for the last ones. They, legit, made me cry. Overall, the game is a reminder of how everything changes and death is inevitable. A truly wonderful experience to have lived Talma's life through this game.
