Play Heaven’s Dawn Online

Heaven's Dawn is a fantasy point and click adventure game released in 1995 for MS-DOS. Developed by Art 9 Entertainment Inc. and published by Manaccom Pty Ltd, it is a third person experience presented in a graphical style and of a length comparable to other adventure titles of its era. The game's visual interface is framed as a painting displayed on an artist's easel.

The player controls Jeremy, a painter from New York who is transported to a cursed fantasy realm after a mysterious encounter. His objective is to investigate the land's curse, which is causing people to vanish and the environment to decay, and find a way to break it so he can return home. Progression involves exploring locations like an empty palace, examining diaries and other clues, and collecting inventory items. Interaction is managed through a floating, scrollable inventory accessed with a right click; moving an item over the character provides a short description. Key gameplay systems include solving a rich variety of environmental and inventory based puzzles, engaging in occasional mini games that do not demand fast reflexes, and later utilizing a traveling map to navigate between areas.

The game features music and sound effects throughout, with spoken dialogue reserved for the introduction and ending sequences. An options window and an in game notebook for tracking objectives are accessed through icons on the easel interface. Player progress can be saved using one of seven available save slots.
