About the story

Join Alba as she visits her grandparents on a Mediterranean island. She is ready for a peaceful summer of wildlife exploration with her friend Ines, but when she sees an animal in danger, she realises she needs to do something about it. This is truly a Mediterranean paradise if you ignore all the litter! From the idyllic beaches to the ancient castle overlooking the town a whole island is ready to be explored. With Ines and your grandfather - who is a total bird nerd - by your side, you can start the movement to save the island. Maybe even the world after that.

Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is about as wholesome a game as it gets. You play as young Alba, first taking steps as a toddler alongside her grandparents on a small island. You learn how to control Alba in this flashback sequence. There you learn how to walk, run, and take photos. At the end of each day, all Alba will need to do is shake her head in agreement or disagreement when asked a question. After the short tutorial sequence, you time jump and play as teenage Alba tasked with cleaning up the island. Along with clean-up, it is Alba’s mission to get enough signatures from neighbors to stop the building of a large tourist high rise.

‎Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is an educational title for the little ones that does not give up reaching the most adult players. Its strong environmentalist message is present continuously, but it does not deprive us of having a colorful, relaxing and very beautiful adventure in which we will feel tenderness and nostalgia. If there's one game to recommend this summer, it's this one.‎

Relive the joys of discovering nature as a child with this beautiful but brief story of conservation and exploration set on an enticingly warm Mediterranean island. Highly recommended for kids with a nature conservationist bent, but also for adults who want to relax in the warmth of the sun in the company of an adorable cast of characters.

This game is all about observing and taking photos of wildlife in the island within the mediterranean. The story is somewhat well threaded but you can still enjoy the game like as if you’re on a peaceful vacation. The purpose of the wildlife photos aren’t just for your personal collection, it’s to preserve the habitats of each species you encounter. The entire gameplay time is a little short but the contents you get to absorb are plentiful and grow awareness about various ways of protecting our wildlife.
