Alba: A Wildlife Adventure Reviews
Alba: A Wildlife Adventure itself is not careless. It has great emotional flourishes that feel earned. The music swells, the visuals gleam and the story comes together well.
Alba: Wildlife Adventure offers an immersive and beautiful experience. It is captivating to explore an island in search of animals to photograph while trying to prevent the mayor's greed and the degradation of nature. The ambience won me over with its stunning look and countless beautiful places to visit, and the light pace creates a relaxing atmosphere. The topics covered are interesting and the simplicity of the systems makes the adventure accessible, but I believe that it would not hurt to do a little more depth. In the end, Alba's adventure oozes character and is a great option for those looking for a peaceful experience.

The story and gameplay for Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is both delightful and eye-opening for anyone who decides to pick up a camera and hunt for that perfect lynx picture. With a clean, unique art style and intuitive interaction with the environment, players can enjoy their time saving dolphins and rescuing squirrels or they can travel the island with Inés rebuilding bridges. Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is an excellent pick for anyone who hopes to have a relaxing adventure in nature, or learn more about the powerful effects of conservation on small eco-systems. The game is not just fun to play, but carries a powerful message about preserving nature, and how it effects communities.
An extremely fun and cozy adventure game that will have any animal lovers smiling in no time. A handful of bugs and performance issues do impact gameplay somewhat but it's easy to overlook given Alba's creative brilliance. I would have preferred a slightly longer story but that aside this is one of the best indie games I've played in years. You would be doing yourself a disservice by not at least giving it a try.
Look up the word “charming” in the dictionary, and you might very well find the cover for this game looking back at you. A bright and breezy game with an important message at its core, Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is a terrific experience, imbued with personality at every turn, that can be polished off in a single session. Another winner in a rapidly burgeoning library from ustwo games.
Ustwo follows up Assemble with Care with more quiet restorative magic.
Alba is the kind of game that all young people should play. Not only is it a heart-warming romp where you get to look at animals, it's educational and empowering, inspiring and beautiful.
