Alba: A Wildlife Adventure
PC, XB1, PS4, Switch, iOS
Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is a game about protecting wildlife, rather than gaming’s more usual deadly approach to the matter. Alba is a small girl who visits her grandparents in the Mediterranean one summer, and discovers an animal in danger. In response she starts a wildlife conservation club! Yay Alba!
The game is about improving the island, photographing animals, and helping those in trouble, like a more hands-on Pokémon Snap. It’s by the team behind Monument Valley, which gives you an idea how pretty it is. And more significantly, it’s a game about making the environment around you a better place to be, for both you and the wildlife.
It’s single-player, but designed to be accessible to much younger kids, meaning you can fling the controller back and forth between you.
