Some scientists think it will help to reveal the secret of immortality and they called it "Heaven Dust". 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... FEATURES Thrilling and immersive exploration-horror experience! Challenging story-integrated puzzles! A hopeless story with different endings.

It’s a brave move trying to stand out in the zombie market. With so many games and clichés, it’s easy to make a bland and mediocre title, but that definitely isn’t the case here. Heaven Dust is a brilliant game that epitomises everything that is great about the genre and I recommend you buy it here! Can you survive this viral outbreak and make it through the mansion? Search for clues, find items and kill zombies while solving every puzzle you encounter.
