    The Stillness of the Wind не так хороша какой она могла бы быть: письма тяжелые, и странные сны не способствуют созданию атмосферы полного одиночества. Тем не менее это игра необычная и заставляет тебя задуматься а что будет со мной в старости. У игры также есть проблемы с позицированием звуков в пространстве к примеру: волк рычит слева а он идёт справа.The Stillness of the Wind не так хороша какой она могла бы быть: письма тяжелые, и странные сны не способствуют созданию атмосферы полного одиночества.

    It perfectly shows you how a life on a lonely farm is, alone, at this old age. You just do things again and again, when the trader comes there's a little difference to the every day cycle where just have to hold you alive. Only problem is that it's very boring. It's cool to play it some time but at some point you just won't play further. It's not a game that I think anyone would play aIt perfectly shows you how a life on a lonely farm is, alone, at this old age.

    But it's good for people who just wanna see how it is to live like that and don't suppose to play this a long time.    … Expand

    The Stillness of the Wind is a very interesting chance to live the emotions of an old person. The devs have used all the right techniques to show and let play these feelings. Is not for everyone, but the game has all the characteristics to explain what freedom in indie games development is.

    If you're looking for a fun time, a happy time, or a smooth ride, this isn't your game. If you're looking for something to chew on and to learn about a person or people you might not be able to truly see in our real world, then Stillness is here. I wish more games tried to communicate these kinds of messages.

    The Stillness of the Wind will not suit everyone. It is a game that is somewhat devoid of excitement. It is probably a closer example of a farming simulator than games such as Harvest Moon or Stardew Valley and their bright colours and fast-growing crops. It is more than that though. It is a game of survival, for both the elderly Talma, and for the animals that she tends. It is a game of loss as well, as we learn about all the family that lived on the farm but have left the nest. The Stillness of the Wind is relaxing though, allowing you to wander about doing your daily tasks however you please, but without goals to aim for, there is often the feel of emptiness which can lead to the game feeling a tad dull.
