Need an indication of something soothing (for my PC)

Well, I come to seek help from the good folks here. I am in the last 6 months of my PhD research and on the verge of a crackdown, so I need something really soothing. You know, something simple, slow paced, preferably running in a window and that can provide some experience like old solitaire did (the one in windows 8 is just plain horrible) for a 15 minute break with no strings attached. I've recently bought Critical Mass on Steam and it is the opposite of what I want. Any good suggestions?

Try Reus, it's a RTS that you can easily stop or take breaks from.

It was on the last Steam sale, wasn't it?

Yes, it was part of the summer sale, I tried it and it's pretty neat, you can play it in short sessions since it's like a mini Civ.
