Overall Changes

 * The graphics are different, and so are the songs.
 * The Kayna monster can now breed.
 * Monsters start off as babies, but become adults when teleported.
 * Some breeding combinations cause different outcomes.
 * Many new Structures are present.
 * The Market (the original game's Market) has been replaced by the Shop.
 * The Market is now the place where players can buy and sell products, rather than a place to buy monsters, decorations, etc.
 * The Storage has become the Vault where items can be stored.
 * Decorations are purely cosmetic, as the Happiness meter does not exist in this game.
 * The News button has been replaced by the Bulletin Board.
 * All basic in-game actions, such as buying a monster, or collecting food or other items, are more interactive, because players need to manually drag items out of stuctures, instead of just clicking them.
 * Structures, Decor, Monsters, & Obstacles are now dynamic.
 * A new structure, the Mailbox, is where purchase receipts and news are received.
 * The game primarily requires Crafting Items to develop a player's Continent. Crystals, Polished Crystals and Carved Crystals, which are all both a Crafting Item and a currency, are used for upgrading the Castle and the Vault. Food and other items are used to fulfill requests given from monsters, which doing so rewards coins.

Productions

 * Unlike in the original game, monsters may ask for personalized treats, rather than simple Food.
 * There are many new structures involved in making various items, such as:
 * The Fruit Tree, which is unlocked at Level 1, can grow Apples, Coconuts, Lemons, and Acorns.
 * The Masher is used to make products that must be ground, such as Applesauce, Coconut Butter, and Sugar.
 * The Garden Patch can grow Grain, Sugar Cane, Smunkins, and other plants.
 * The Bakery returns, but is no longer upgradable. You can bake Apple Tarts, Cookies, Smunkin Pie, and other Treats in it.
 * The Bog is used for collecting items such as Bamboo, Logs, and Rocks.
 * The Workshop makes things such as the Bamboo Flute and decorations such as Rock Garden and Apple Barrel.
 * The Jeweler structure, which is unlocked at Level 7, makes polished and carved versions of Crystals.
 * The Juicer structure, which is unlocked at Level 8, as is plainly stated, makes juice. Examples of Juices are Apple Juice and Coconut Milk.
 * The Ice Machine, which is unlocked at Level 11, makes Ice.
 * The Cooking Pot, which is unlocked at Level 13, can cook meals. You can get Coconut Cheese, Ice Cream, and others.
 * The Apothecary, which is unlocked at Level 17, is used to create medicine and equipment like Bandages.
 * The Skyship (introduced in Version 1.5.0) which is unlocked at Level 19, is used to fill in orders that require Crafting Items. Filling an order will earn coins and XP, but filling all orders of a single shipment order rewards a grand prize of diamonds, if done within the 18-hour time limit.
 * The Weavers, which are unlocked at Level 20, can produce fabrics such as Cotton and Wool. You can even make rope in the Weavers.
 * The Candy Factory, which is unlocked at Level 22, is used to make sweets such as Candy Apple, and Amber Lollipop.
 * The Tailor, which is unlocked at Level 26, is used to make apparel such as sunglasses, scarfs, and earmuffs.  It also makes sewing needles.
 * The Toy Factory, which is unlocked at level 33 is used to make toys such as teddy bears, slingshots, and kites.

New Currency

 * Coins are no longer used for upgrading the Castle (or the Vault).
 * Instead, players can collect Crystals around the Continent and upgrade it with those. As the player reaches a higher level, they will have to save crystals to get special crystal items at the Jeweler Structure to upgrade or use diamonds.
 * Monsters might request items which are only obtainable via the Wondermine.
 * Monsters no longer produce coins. Coins are earned through giving monsters the food (and other items) they request. Coins may also be earned through completing goals, selling monsters, or selling products at the Market.
 * There is no mine to produce diamonds. Instead, monsters have a fairly small probability of finding them in the Wondermine. This is unless the player buys a Diamond Extractor, which instead of producing diamonds automatically, it requires coins to produce the selected amount of diamonds.

Continent
Continent consists of five of the original natural islands together. They all share the same song, no matter where the monsters are placed, and monsters are unrestricted from moving to particular sections of Continent.

In Continent, there are differences from the original My Singing Monsters game, including the different plants and monsters. On the Land that is now Air Island there are cacti on it instead of yucka trees, while on the Land that is now Earth Island all of the plants are still alive. The Land that is now Cold Island has trees that still have their leaves. The Plant Land is basically Plant Island from the first game.

Plant Land is unlocked when you first play, like on the first game, Cold Land is unlocked on Level 9, Air Land is unlocked on Level 19, Water Land is unlocked on Level 30 and Earth Island is unlocked on Level 42.

Outer Islands
In Dawn of Fire, there are 3 Outer Islands: Space Island, Cloud Island and Cave Island. Monsters are teleported to the Outer Islands depending on their level, using the Teleporter structure, which cannot be moved. When the baby Monsters are teleported to the Outer Islands, they grow into adults. More Outer Islands will be added in the future.
 * Space Island has 13 Monsters to be placed and the Level requirement is 10.
 * Cloud Island has 13 Monsters to be placed and the Level requirement is 15.
 * Cave Island has 13 Monsters to be placed and the Level requirement is 20.

Music

 * All songs in Dawn of Fire seem not to follow a 140-beats-per-minute rhythm.
 * The Castle does not create or produce any bass sound when upgraded.
