Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Stories of normal people doing normal things is something I find quite appealing, so enter Windy Meadow a story of three villagers with “humble” aspirations living in a small village, of course it would pique my interest.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
There is no OST as far as I understand, since Windy Meadow uses songs by Doctor Turtle under a Creative Commons license, I like the songs and think they are used appropriately, however, I do wish we could have had something unique, songs made with the characters, and the game in mind.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
It's a pleasant read, with just alright visuals (some animations looked too stiff) and the most boring cripple AND a bard story you could think of.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
At certain points the menu will fade away and reveal a normal, cozy scene of rustic village life, two sisters sitting on a plinth, an old herbalist waiting for her apprentice to finish dinner, a retired Roadwarden having a talk with the boy he rescued, all framed by a slight drizzling rain.
