Good
Покупать только со скидкой, буквально сырое юнити симулятор Купился на атмосферу ретро и это же разрабы первого симулятора вора Настолько сыро что нету всегда озвучки, звуков взаимодействия по типу ювилирки, разговоры с нпс Это мог быть обычный симулятор вора с вайбом ретро,но нет, из плюсов внешка гг но без кастомизации, нету популярных ретро музла
LOVE!! This is the type of thief game I like :)) 10/10
It has a solid concept, but it's not executed well enough. Reloading a save takes ages, tenants are extremely buggy, interacting with doors or windows can take ages, and the story is... lackluster to say the least.
It is like thief simulator but with connected town that make it feel like player can roam freely. But the sandbox mode is harder, no schedule for tenant and no save. Thiefing the house in blind with sandbox
Thief Simulator but in the 80's, it's like a dream :) I did encounter a couple bugs but reloading fixed everything, nothing that stopped me from having fun.

It takes you straight back to the 80s, where the tech was chunky and the heists felt like something out of a classic crime flick.Gameplay: Old-School ThieveryYou’re a thief climbing the social ladder in a typical 80s American town. No high-tech hacking here—it’s all about crowbars, lockpicks, and hauling massive tube TVs into the back of your car. You have to scope out houses, learn the owners' routines, and make your move when the coast is clear.The 80s VibeThe strongest point of the game is the atmosphere. Everything from the synth-wave music to the boxy cars and the "shag carpets" in the houses feels authentic. It’s a great sandbox for anyone who misses (or loves) that aesthetic.Pros & ConsPROS:Strategic Freedom: There are multiple ways to break into every location. Planning the perfect getaway is super satisfying.Retro Fun: Stealing VCRs and cassette tapes feels surprisingly nostalgic and funny.CONS:Wonky AI: The police can be hit or miss—sometimes they're oblivious, other times they have superhuman vision.Technical Jitter: It has that typical "simulator" jank with occasional clipping or physics bugs.Final VerdictAmerican Theft 80s is a fun, lighthearted stealth game. It’s not perfect, but it’s a blast to play if you want to experience a "crime spree" through a retro lens. ---{ 9 / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☑ 9 ☐ 10
круто (UWU)
A great heist simulator with a cool 80s vibe! The gameplay loop is very satisfying, though the graphics and animations feel quite outdated and leave a lot to be desired. If you can overlook the visuals, it’s a solid and entertaining game. Played the game in 2026.
ok stealth game
