About Beasts of Maravilla Island

About this game

Embark on your adventure as an aspiring wildlife photographer in the hidden, magic jungles of Maravilla Island. Explore a mysterious 3D island and solve puzzles in order to discover extraordinary creatures, interact with them in their natural habitat, and photograph the enchanting, unique behaviors you reveal!

The protective magic of Maravilla Island is waning, and the only way to save it is to restore humanity's belief in the magical. Assume the role of Marina Montez, an aspiring wildlife photographer who is armed with her grandfather's journal of Maravilla and his camera. To save Maravilla Island, you must climb, explore, and solve puzzles with the island's flora and fauna to find and photograph its fabulous beasts.

You'll also need to coax out their unique behaviors! Play with a rambunctious otter-crocodile. Be the wingman for a lovestruck bird-monkey. Discover the favorite hiding spots of birds disguised as bananas. Beasts of Maravilla Island is filled with enchanting opportunities to engage with creatures in unique, wholesome ways!

Capture your magic moments with majestic animals, and share Maravilla Island's magic with the world!

I remember playing the demo to this game and loving it! There are three areas to discover: the jungle, a river area and a desert-like area. All of them are nicely designed, you get a few objectives and a specific animal you are meant to observe more closely. While there is not much more to the game than walking around and takin photos, it is a lot of fun discovering the different species, interacting with the animals and enjoying the beautiful world. There even is a bit of a story with a very wholesome ending to it. I would recommend the game to people who are more out for an experience, not a game. If you liked Esther, What remains of Edith Finch, etc this game might be a good call for you :) (It took me 3 hours to finish the game, achievement hunting included, you have to judge for yourself if you want to pay the full price for the game or wait for a sale)

A short game about taking pictures of strange plants and animals on a mysterious island.

A short game about taking pictures of strange plants and animals on a mysterious island. There is a photograph book to track what you have and have not found. There are some light puzzles required to solve to progress and the path forward is very narrow, so you won't be getting lost. And the game is really short, like a couple hours and you'll see everything. For a picture-taking adventure, get Alba A Wildlife Adventure Instead.
