Evaluation

Heaven Forest NIGHTS released on March 14, 2017 as the second entry in the Heaven Forest series. After a small feature patch in April 2017 adding a saving system, the game saw very little developer communication for years. On August 30, 2025, the developer posted an update announcing that an improved graphics update with bug fixes was coming "soon next month" (i.e., September 2025), and that the game would also be arriving on Nintendo Switch 2 in an enhanced edition. This is a clear signal that additional work was being done on the game. However, as of June 27, 2026, no follow-up post has confirmed that the promised September 2025 update actually shipped on Steam, and there has been no further communication from the developer about this game since August 30, 2025. The promised update date has passed with no public confirmation of delivery, leaving the status of that announced content unclear.

About this game

This is the second chapter from the "Heaven Forest" series.
While in the first game we explored the meaning of life, in this second chapter we wonder about the opposite: what is the meaning of death?

We are born and we grow up and we step by step we come to terms with the fact that sooner or later we will die. So, in the end, have everyday efforts any meaning at all?



And again: do life and death have a meaning at all? If there is meaning, is it for the good or for the bad?
Why is death a presence in our lives?
Is there something beyond the physical after death?

The awareness of our own immanent death is a major feeling. But it's also the beginning of wisdom.

Throughout the game you'll find scrolls of wisdom that will help you concentrate and think at a more profound level.
The human nature will be unfolded once you'll find all the scrolls.



The VR device is NOT required in order to play the game.
VIVE and Oculus are the supported devices you can use.
