As you see, Heaven Dust is deeply inspired by the classical famous game Resident Evil (or Bio Hazard in Japan). The developers are the big fans of it, so they try to use a similar theme and some ideas. But the story, puzzles and most of the design are definitely new. So you may find some familiar taste and a totally new fresh experience in Heaven Dust.

At the beginning of the game, players will find themselves waking up in a strange mansion full of horrible zombies and deadly traps. What you need to do is collecting helpful items, solving innovative puzzles, fighting with zombies and trying to find out what happened.

In 1970, a scientific investigation team found a new virus in the blood samples from a primitive tribe called "Torkue" in New Guinea. Some scientists think it will help to reveal the secret of immortality and they called it "Heaven Dust". However, it turns out that it's not really a gift from Heaven, it opens the gate to hell instead.

After the research center in New Guinea was destroyed in an accident related to the mutant virus, they brought "Heaven Dust" to the USA, then the researches were carried out entirely by their subsidiary company StarDust.

A disaster is just unfolding...

You may have heard from the news that there are many infected persons with the novel coronavirus confirmed in China. They are not only numbers, but they are also real human lives. We made this decision after careful consideration: though undermined by the situation as well, we won't delay the launch date, as we hope the hopeless story for teaching courage can also help us deal with the struggles and fears of our everyday lives with the plague.
