This is one of the few Western games(and maybe the one with most of the essence of my comparison so far that I've seen, by far) that ever made me feel like I was playing Boku no Natsuyasumi/ぼくのなつやすみ(PS1). I had been searching that for over a decade now since my teens. delightful to remember(or start experiencing for the first time and in process of normalizing it) how it feels to not have a care in the world.
A nice little cozy game where you play as a kid called Alba and take pictures of the animals on the island. The story is wholesome, and the tasks you do on the island with your friend Inés are just chill. It took me about 3 hours to do everything and get all the achievements. If you need a break from what you usually play and want to chill for a few hours, Alba: A Wildlife Adventure would be the ideal choice.
This is what I want in a cozy game: no grinding, no insane amounts of time spent crafting or gathering, just silly and wholesome activities and a good story. Great game and worth trying and even finishing, a short gem!
