    Alba: A Wildlife Adventure is a game that, acknowledging its own disadvantages, knows how to exploit its strong points to offer a didactical and environmentalist product without renouncing to that soft vibes that characterizes it. It's a title that knows very well who is speaking to and what it wants to do, giving a relaxing experience that will entertain our kids, but will also evoke a sweet nostalgia to the elder ones. If there's a game to educate the children about recyling or environmental preservation while make them having fun playing, it's this one: an edutvative but fun adventure that everyone can enjoy. The more adult gamers will find in Alba: A Wildlife Adventure a brief journey of summery nostalgia.

    Alba: A Wildlife Adventure feels like taking a vacation on your Xbox. Even while players explore a blissful island paradise, there is still an important environmental message to learn, and plenty of tasks to engage in as players interact with the vibrant setting and its various colourful characters. Although the experience is largely designed for younger players, there is plenty of incentive for any player to kick back and soak in a video game that genuinely feels like a holiday escape.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm not sure who this game is for. As an adult I found it tediously slow - the character walks a normal walking pace and you're going around and around and around and around the same island. At first I thought well, it is very simple and easy to control with very basic quests, so maybe this would be a great game for a smaller child with a good message about environmentalism and conversation efforts...except in the end our main character, a child, the hero of the story that we've been identifying as and with the whole time, disobeys an adult and goes running back out into the island which is now *on fire* to save a wild animal which... it's not actually clear needs saving? And when the kid is found, they're not told "wow that was dangerous and stupid", they're praised and featured in the newspaper. So I also wouldn't really say it's kid-appropriate either.… Expand
