'''Heaven's Vault''' is an archaeological science-fiction [[adventure game]] released by [[Inkle (video game company)|Inkle]] on [[Microsoft Windows]] and [[Playstation 4]] on April 16, 2019. |

==Plot and gameplay== |
|||
In Heaven's Vault, players assume the role of an archaeologist named Aliya Elasra who has a robotic companion called Six. The game follows the course of their adventure as they 'sail' between the moons and planets of the Nebula region of space searching for a missing [[roboticist]] named Janniqi Renba. |
|||
The player has to decipher and learn the hieroglyphic language of the Ancients, a lost civilization. This involves finding and collecting inscriptions from ancient artifact, sites and ruins and translating and discussing texts with other characters. |
|||
The developers state that over a thousand words written in the game's fictional language can be found <ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2019/04/16/heavens-vault-released/|title='80 Days devs Inkle have opened Heaven's Vault' – Rock Paper Shotgun|date=6 April 2019|work=Rock Paper Shotgun}}</ref> and claim that its pictorial glyps are inspired by Ancient Egyptian and Chinese writing systems. |
|||
The player can choose their own route through the story and around the Nebula. |

|||
==Reception== |
|||
As of release day the game had a rating of 79/100 for PC on Metacritic. |
