“With its stunning hand-painted visuals, immersive soundtrack, and deeply emotional narratives, The Wind and Wilting Blossom offers a captivating journey that will test your leadership skills and leave a lasting impression.”
TheGamer

“The designers made great choices in deciding what they should include and what they left off, and it just works in a way that a lot of other games do not.”
8.5/10 – Turn Based Lovers

“The Wind and Wilting Blossom is a fantastic Rogue-like strategy RPG that marries all of its systems superbly. It does clearly draw inspiration from FTL, but this is no bad thing; in fact, I’m delighted to have more of this emerging subgenre.”
4.5/5 – Indie Game Reviewer
