Photography Games
I’ve decided to make some lists of video games that use some of my favourite hobbies/special interests as part of their main mechanics and features. I’ve tried to find lists like these before with no luck so now I’m making my own because I had the idea and now cannot rest until it is done.
Life is Strange
Tumblr media
This is maybe the best known one on this list, t the point where I almost did not include it because who doesn’t know Life is strange.
TOEM
Tumblr media
TOEM is an indie point-and-click game, and one of my personal favourites.
Alba: A Wildlife Adventure
Tumblr media
Alba: A wildlife adventure is a game about bettering the world around you and documenting thriving wildlife. Buying and downloading the game also funds the planting of trees worldwide.
Beasts of Maravilla Island
Tumblr media
Beasts of Maravilla Island is a very photography heavy game, and, similarly to Alba, is also about documenting animals and wildlife.
Pupperazzi
Tumblr media
It’s photography and dogs. I like it.

After completing the first level, I felt that Beasts of Maravilla Island was fairly good yet not particularly memorable.
But then I saw the second level.
Its celestial blue-and-purple colour scheme, dotted with glowing plants and vibrant creatures, absolutely delivered on the feeling of awe and wonder that Maravilla aimed to create. For me, that environment took the game straight from ok to good, and guaranteed my interest in both finishing the game and writing a review of it...

Beasts of Maravilla Island [Review - minor spoilers]
DEVELOPER: Banana Bird Studios, LLC
PUBLISHER: Whitethorn Games
Description from Steam: Beasts of Maravilla Island is a 3D adventure game where you take on the role of a young wildlife photographer who traverses Maravilla Island's magical ecosystems to discover extraordinary creatures, learn their behaviors, and, most importantly, photograph their majesty.
Time taken to complete: < 3 hours
Played on: PC
Rating: 2 out of 5
Positives:
Wildlife/Environment Designs - the designs for the wildlife are very endearing [some below the cut] and I enjoyed hunting around for the creatures. I also appreciate the variety (although limited) in the environments and the specific wildlife found in them; particularly big fan of the bio-luminescent wetland/riparian zone.
General atmosphere - there is no time limit and it’s almost impossible to miss photos, so it is very chill, very laid back until the finale
Chapter Selection - I really appreciate that they included a chapter selection as I missed a couple achievements. Rather than make me play fully through the game a second time, I was able to jump around to tie up the loose ends.
Journal - I like the journal entries on the animals; they’re helpful for the “objective” animals and add a little bit more flavor to the game.
Neutrals:
Story - An attempt was made and I could see what they were going for (conservation message), but how the journal is set-up at the start of the game gave away the “big reveal” and the execution overall was ‘eh’ for me.
The “Good Dog” Achievement - Some people will enjoy the “Good Dog” Achievement (which is playing fetch 20 times); I am not one of those people (because of the controls), but I understand the appeal.
Gameplay - I enjoy a good wildlife photography game. I really like that the animals react to your whistling and that there are some candid shots for some of the more adorable designs; I wish there was more behaviors from the non-“main objective” animals to observe. I also wish it was longer by one more zone as the last zone transitions into the finale pretty quickly compared to the prior zones - I would have liked more for the beach zone.
Negatives:
Glitches - I ran into a couple movement glitches, but the worst glitch encountered was an audio glitch during a cut scene in the Singing Jungle that left the game screaming for the entire cut scene. I think I encountered a glitch with the photo camera as some of the images look as if they have a grey filter over them(?).
Controls - It does not control well. During climbing segments, I got stuck (character wouldn’t release or step down on platform except in one spot despite visually being on the platform and having pushed the release button). There is no run button, so the character is stuck at a set pace; this made back-tracking for photos kind of frustrating as some animals are tucked away in alcoves and only found there. The photo camera is a bit slow if you are trying to catch animals in flight; you have to kind of line-up and wait rather than taking a photo on wing. PICKING UP ITEMS WAS NOT GOOD!
Camera - the game camera (not the photo camera) went haywire a number of times while just walking around. This made me kind of motion sick.
Accessibility - while it does have captions and a variety of languages available, it does not have fully voiced dialogue, journal entries, or audio narration options (that I could find). I am not sure it would work with a reader. I did not see options for high contrast. The Simon Says segment, I feel, might be unplayable for gamers with disabilities. It’s a segment where you match your whistling to the singing of one of the objective animals; this is strangely difficult because it’s a bit like a game of simon says with Morse code. I was able to do it by accident (or the game took pity on me), but I was mostly using my eyes to see the subtle colors of the notes (difficult to see) rather than matching the sound as the sound was hard to keep up with.
Who might enjoy it: If it didn’t have the glitching/control issue and was more accessible, it would be a nice unwind game for adults if you just like walking around while looking at cute colorful animals and don’t have a lot of free time in your evening. Children would be into it also I imagine; I’m not sure keyboard would be the best console for them, but I think they’d like the same aspects as the adults would.
Obligatory screenshots of some of my favorites under the cut.

Recently Completed: Beasts of Maravilla Island (Xbox Series X)
This is a third-person photography adventure about exploring a mythical island. It's pretty, absolutely jam-packed with plants and interesting creature designs, and unfortunately very short. The story isn't anything revolutionary, but my daughter and I had a nice time. Maybe check it out!

in celebration of one of my sister's friends admiring my "gamer swag" (all the games i've played that are apparently obscure) i've decided arbitrarily to try to dredge up some obscure games to share with you all in case people are interested in that sort of thing. in terms of determining the obscurity of the game, i think i'm gonna go with less than 1000 reviews, and/or looking at all-time peak concurrent player stats in steam charts. whatever i feel like maybe. Also, if there are absolutely no guides on steam or the internet, then i guess that's for sure obscure.
also these are all games that i've finished. some of them i finished a long time ago so i may not remember much about like. quality. or how good they are. shrug. they're interesting though.
