* BriefcaseFullOfMoney: [[spoiler:The Mayor receives one as compensation for pushing the hotel plan through. Alba's task is to get a picture of it.]]
* ComMons: House sparrows, domestic cats, red squirrels, and several varieties of gull. (This is pretty much accurate to real life.)
* CunningLikeAFox: A fox stealing chickens manages to briefly convince the humans that it's a lynx. The main characters only realize otherwise after finding its den and photographing it.
* DistantPrologue: The prologue is set ten years earlier, complete with "Ten Years Later" caption when it ends.
* DoorToBefore: Around the nature reserve and (to a lesser degree) the castle, Alba can often open a door or build a bridge or ramp that gives her access to an area that she had to walk around the long way to get to.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:The mayor was willing to be bribed to build the hotel, but got in over his head. Attacking the two little girls who saw - and photographed - the handover is much too far for him.]]
* FieryCoverUp: [[spoiler:Paco burns the petition. It's also implied that he might have committed arson on the building site after the mayor is arrested.]]
* FirstPersonSnapshooter: Third-person for getting around, but the photography is first-person. It's the entire point of the game.
* {{Fauxshadow}}: The woods north of town have 'no fire' signs around them, and the police officer warns that they could go up in flames at the slightest spark. [[spoiler:While there is a fire, it's at the construction site for the new hotel, and the woods remain unburnt through the valiant efforts of the townsfolk.]]
* FreeRangeChildren: Alba and Ines have the run of Pinar del Mar and can catch the ferry to La Roqueta as well.
* FriendlyPlayfulDolphin: A dolphin gets trapped in a fishing net and beached early in the game, and Alba has to collect people to help; when a dolphin comes to the beach a few days later, everyone thinks it's the same one trying to thank Alba for helping it.
* GreenAesop: The game is all about protecting nature, and the credits start by suggesting that if the game moved you, you should look into supporting organizations like the [[https://www.panda.org/ World Wildlife Fund]].

* NobleBirdOfPrey: In-universe - everyone is very impressed by the Spanish imperial eagle nesting on the island. The eagle doesn't actually do much, though.
* PlayableEpilogue: After the end credits, you're let loose on the island for your last day with no time limit, allowing you to talk to everyone, finish off any remaining quests, and find those last few animals.
