v0.0.1
Initial Release
MAD69992026-03-23★★★★★
Every game he releases is worse than the last. God, the story is incredibly boring, the characters are flat and incredibly clichéd. The developer's last two games are just copy-pasted. He needs to try something new and stop including so many characters in his games. There are so many with zero development; they seem like NPCs from some bad RPG.
WankerDxD2026-03-23★★★★★
I tried to enjoy but I didn't, only good for quick fap. -Good looking characters (Not original DAZ characters, I saw them in other games), good enough sex scenes. -Very boring story, boring routine, Cold characters.
kevlar5912026-02-07★★★★★
Fantastic game, both in terms of graphics and the story, which is thrilling and full of twists and turns. The characters are well-developed (no pun intended), especially in terms of personality and emotions. Corruption is very present from all angles. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Mrsexoo32026-01-04★★★★★
Very mediocre game, the team keeps making the same mistake they made with their previous titles, they just never learn. I wasted anough time so ill just be brief. Story 1/5 sleep inducing , as always, the writing is so bad, you feel like skipping most of the time characters 2/5 outside of their looks they have nothing going for them, just tropes and cliches, no charm or personality at all, doing nonsensical shit most of the times and most seem to be mentally challenged Renders/aniamtions 3/5 they are nothing special, these could be considered great back in 2017 but right now, compared with the best game out there, these are mediocre at best. TLDR: Very disappointing game, with decent graphics, might be worth to just ctrl skip and check the sex
Erimate2025-12-25★★★★★
If you can accept the whole thieving family idea, which imho works just fine for the porn purpose of this game, then you are going to thoroughly enjoy this AVN. LIs are super hot, scenes are very steamy, renders are professionally made, there is progression and not the usual jump on the main course. It's not the best AVN out there, but it's definitely very well made, it covers all the basic requirements for a very good game and then some. Minus 1 star for the very obvious plot holes, again falling in the category of the weird, but innovative premise. If you only care about the visuals, the scenes and the LIs then this would be a 5* Ps: Finally a game where a next door girl gets some much deserved love, though not enough (yet). I am talking about Zora who is one of the top ten LIs I have encountered. However, she changes heart almost immediately and we don't have the normal (good) progression we have with the other LIs although she clearly said she wants to take it very slow, we get her almost immediately to third base.
binkbonkdinkdonk2025-12-21★★★★★
I made it just about through Episode 1 (a third of the way through "Part 1") before deciding to drop it. From the start, the models look great, and on top of that the story begins with an interesting "thieving family" premise, and even introduces some unique "relationship" mechanics! Unfortunately, everything quickly falls apart after the first few scenes. For one, the interplay between being a "family" and a high-performing task force just doesn't really work, and ends up painting one of two pictures in regard to the family backstory, neither of which makes any sense: 1. A mom and dad decided to groom their kids into becoming their henchmen. 2. A husband and wife decided to adopt/house a bunch of kids, who they then groomed into becoming their henchmen. In either case it makes no sense and just makes both parents seem irresponsible at best, and actual psychopaths at worst. This also makes it really difficult to understand the relationship dynamics between any of the "family" characters since it's not clearly established how and why these people even stick together in the first place. For example, why does MC care that the dad threatens to kick him out? Why does dad keep MC around if he sucks at his job so much? What doesn't answer these questions is the porn logic the game immediately starts throwing at you. This just signals early on that this plot is not to be taken seriously. Even worse is that since this premise isn't absurd enough to even be ironically funny, it really just plays like a bad but sincere effort. Also, the whole "points" system just feels extraneous and unresponsive. This becomes especially apparent when you realize you only get up to a single point per "episode", which is far too infrequent and also far too consequential (if these points actually do anything to begin with). Think about it like this: if you reach the end of a chapter and realize you miss a point, you either proceed and potentially miss scenes, OR go back and try and figure out the "right" answer to these fucking events (that's a whole other can of worms). I did decide to comb through the decompiled game (including Part 2) for the scenes, and they're surprisingly lackluster. There are few animations, and there's often quality disparity between them and the renders. For a game toying with these "intricate" relationship systems, it should really make sure the payoff for working with that system is locked in first. I also noticed that the dev decided to permanently change the hairstyle of the blonde LI at some point. I definitely liked the previous hairstyle better, and if I were to have slogged through the whole game it would have been primarily for her scenes. It's also strange how none of the title art uses the new hairstyle. Ultimately this game focuses a bit too much on bells and whistles that don't actually make a kinetic VN enjoyable, and when combined with a pretty shitty premise it makes this entire project just not work for me. I can give two stars simply for the models, but that's really it.
RikkJames2502025-11-27★★★★★
I rarely rate games, but this one has improved dramatically from launch. Updates are a bit spread out, but they are content rich. Models are great and the scenes are very well done. In fairness, the animations could get a bit better, but giving credit for them being "non-robotic" as that takes sincere effort. Highly recommend the game if you have not played it. 6 full chapters out, so a lot of content. Great job devs, keep it up!
Abaddon.Pale2025-11-27★★★★★
I don't know how the hell I missed the whole first editon of this game. Another Great Game from Mr.D and seriously the best one so far.. Still love DMD.. but man this one is also a great story. DMD was good story compaired to this one. Really as with any MD game.. the graphics are outstanding, the animations are mouth watering. and the writing is top flight. I ABSOLUTLY LOVE THE HELL OUT OF the Officer Justice story line.. it's so freaking hot. I hate NTR games where the MC is the guy getting cucked. but I totally gig the MC cucking the crap out of an NPC especially when OJ is the second hottest girl in the game after Arial. This is a great title and I cannot wait for the next release as it ended on a rather awful ( but expected ) clifhanger.
Issikka2025-11-26★★★★★
This did look promising, but sadly went downhill fairly fast. The writing is sub par, story is missing a lot to make it interesting. You could forgive it if this was the dev's first game, but it is not and well it seems to just go downhill. It also seems the dev decided to just make mediocre slop that is then paywalled so that the complete game is only available to those that are in his top tier support. Over all very disappointing.
MrEcco002025-11-25★★★★★
With the new installment this has gained, finally, a new level in erotica scenes. My perspective, it finally advanced in the story with many of the characters meeting and surpassing my expectations. Style is top notch for me.
PR Mitter2025-10-10★★★★★
Model and Render 5 star Story 1 star I don't f**ing understand why these devs try to use mystery as premise and lack pretty common sense. I mean, this dev is great with dialogues and little moments, that's why his previous two VNs were among my favorites. But mystery needs a lot more attention to details, not just good story flow and dialogues. So, many incoherent actions there that made the VN unenjoyable storywise. For example: 1. They had the feed access but never even brought that during missing pendrive situation with the tattoed girl or probably never recorded the feed in an important ongoing mission(which is lame). 2. Why are they doing small thievery every day??? The devs seemed to start with very strong suggestions that they are professional expert strong group. No professional would do any unlawful act as much as possible outside of their main job. 3. That fucking guy just lost a very important pendrive to a girl with a cat tatoo and even within 24 hours he saw it on another woman but didn't put his guard up. What a crap... I mean, it's a heist/mystery novel. Try a bit harder Mr. Dev. 4. There are also bunch of other things like stolen phones without a location log and wtf can't force unlock a phone(except iPhone)!!!!!! Anyway, the models are gorgeous and the proper control over a sex scene is really great... 5 star there. This is a VN which I can recommend to everyone, because at the end of the day, it's an adult VN and the adult content is top notch, the story is enjoyable but not upto the level compared to the genres.
ianpac2025-09-11★★★★★
I’ve played all of the previous games, and respectfully think this is the worst one. Just finished part one of the game and it starts off interesting but just progressively gets worse and worse. I feel like there’s no buildup between the MC and love interest. I have no interest in any of the love interest so far and I’d say these are some of the most boring models for woman which is very disappointing after Sunshine Love which in my opinion were some of Mr. Dot’s best models. MC is okay? I don’t care for these non cannon scenes. Seems pointless. Also feel like there’s game has very odd transitions between some scenes. Almost seems like a slideshow. Very awkward placement. I really hate to do harsh on this game but Mr. Dot really missed with this one. I was very excited when it was announced. Hopefully the next game is better than this. Very unsure if I will bother finishing this one.
Leon d'or2025-09-09★★★★★
Interesting background. "Not just a fuck-em all" Wonder where this will go. Pity Megan isn't to be featured more (?) I think Zora is uninteresting – visually and character-wise. With so many hot chicks, the MC has to pick this one. Pity. Anyway, nice game. Look forward to more.
Golden.Nyks2025-09-02★★★★★
I won't review the game in terms of story, writing, or characters, as many people already do that very well. I will be reviewing it in detail in terms of its visuals. Pros: -Considering the game's size, it has a lot of images (+10,000). -The models are above average. I liked most of them. -The colors, background textures, and models are sufficient. -The background environment is well-filled, not empty. Cons: -Images are heavily compressed, causing a loss of detail, though they aren’t distorted. -Due to compression, most images lack model details, revealing a flat, featureless skin texture. -While the overall look (models, scenes, etc.) is good from a distance, most images lack fine detail. (In my opinion, that's what makes it truly good). Beyond the images, the game is average at best.
kamimed2025-08-31★★★★★
MrDots is (or was) a talented developer. "Melody" was my favorite of his games, both for its story and characters. While "Sunshine Love" was a visual improvement, its story was average at best. It feels like this new game was assigned to an intern and MrDots went on vacation. This feeling is compounded by the snarky intro, which already attacks the players—as if whoever developed it knew it was subpar work. The models are not that great. Maybe in 2019 this would have been a hit, but for 2025, they are lacking. Going from "Sunshine Love" to this is a clear downgrade, which is why I suspect an intern is working on it. Story-wise, it is bland. I understand the need for censorship in the relationship; that's not the developer's fault and it's fine. However, the writing itself is abysmal. It relies on the same tropes you've seen in a hundred other visual novels, but with a far worse execution. The premise of a "group" of thieves reminded me of the movie "We're the Millers." While that movie was funny, this game is not. Even in the film, the "son" had more chemistry with the female cast than the MC has with anyone in this game. For me, it was a miss. I expected more after "Sunshine Love" and "Melody." However, you might still like it if you play. Don't base your opinion solely on reviews; it may fit your taste. Unfortunately, it didn't fit mine.
MyLoneyLucifer2025-08-28★★★★★
Pretty plain is the best way I could describe this game. Nothing stands out at all. Pros : Renders - I'd say above Average. Cons: Story - Really like the concept but the exclusion lets it down. Writing - Not the worst but at times you wonder if the dev even tried or just wrote whatever first came to mind. If all you want is a basic porn game then I'd recommend, if you want anything more than that just skip.
theolin2025-08-25★★★★★
I tried playing the game but after episode 1 i dropped it the main reason it was boring as hell Pros -Good Models Cons -The game mimics other games making it even worse...we have the tsundere big sister, the adorable litle sister ,the reluctant mom add a scumbag dad and you have a doomed game as 90% of the games is like this -Bad plot...The plot could not get worst than that is...MC is a thief as his family then he gets robbed twice making this whole story nothing but trash since all they are thieves stealing one another -Models...While the models are good they are unattractive to me in comparison to that of DMD (Dee, Elena, Jennifer, Georgina) and Melody(Melody, Sofia, Rebeca) none of the girls are appealing either as models or characters -Sea of texts...there are non sex scene only endless text and the scenes are fantastic...fantastic scens i personaly hate this staff -A Rank missions...i am playing a boring game no sex scenes and i have to watch my rating...hahaha go to hell... Edit i added one star for 2 reasons -Mr Dots has always finished his works all 3 of them -Updates...his updates are frequent and big For the above reasons i added a star
ghostuser10772025-07-24★★★★★
Thief of Hearts, Part 1 I played through part 1 and have no interest in playing Part 2 or any other future updates. The only reason I played that far was out of respect for the time and effort the dev did put into this game. But unfortunately, this is another game with amazing models, ruined by awkward writing and terrible game play. Originally, I wanted to give this game 3-Stars as average, but when I thought about my overall experience, I hardly enjoyed the game at all. Most of the time? I was just frustrated. Spoiler: In-Depth Long Review/Notes PROS : 10/10 models . What makes a good AVN is different characters with varying ages, faces, nationalities, and body types. Not every love interest needs to look like an 18-y/o skinny busty girl with the same face. The dev did a good job with the main girls and some of the side characters. While I support fitness weight loss goals, I wish characters like Zora were left as is. She is nowhere near as fat as the game tries to make her out to be. A stark contrast to the "everyone has different tastes" message the game tried to preach at the beginning of the game. Relationship variables . Making your gaming experience as customizable as possible is something all AVNs should do. I hate the tenant-landlady-roommate troupe but understand why it's there. Letting us players define what's what and who's who is the best compromise. And it's very much appreciated. Nice 1-on-1 Moments . The best parts of the game are outside of doing graded tasks. Scenes like taking Ariel out for coffee or going jogging with Bella are what kept me playing. It's when I'm playing to earn heart points or looking for "secrets" that take away my enjoyment. Decent story . The story itself isn't so bad. Not everything has to be "original" to be good. It's the dialogue that needs work. CONS : This game is ruined by its "Task" System . These are the missions you do with certain girls, and you get hearts/relationship points based on how "well" you did on your mission. The more hearts you have, the better the later scenes are, essentially. Interesting idea, terrible execution. The problem here is, this creates the "illusion of choice". You will rarely be able to play how you want or be the MC you want to be because most options will have a "right" answer. For example, during the first heist you help Vivian with, she can steal a red, black, or gold dress. A Normal player would assume they can pick whatever they want based on their own preferences. However, choosing anything other than the Red Dress will result in a lower score for the Task. If there was only one right answer, what was the point in giving me a choice like that? This game is littered with choices like that, and it pisses me the hell off. There's no rhyme or reason to getting an A+ . There are no clear hints or clues as to what options to pick, so you either have to guess correctly or redo that part until you get it right for the full score. Some tasks want you to be serious, others want you to be as pervy as possible. There's not even consistency of the type of person you're supposed to be between characters. These choices also infringe on the player's tastes . During the first Ariel heist, to get a perfect score, you HAVE to let her unknowingly step on your dick and balls, and make the MC cum? Seriously? What does that have to do with increasing her relationship or how well I've done the mission? I'm not mad that a foot scene is there (I support everyone's interest and kinks), I'm mad that you've essentially forced the player into a foot-play scenario. Even as a gag or funny moment, it falls flat. Even if you don't NEED to get a perfect score on all the tasks to progress a relationship, you've made the player feel like they have to. " What if I miss a secret to unlock? ", " What if I don't have enough points for the next scene? ", " What if there's an achievement for getting A+ on everything? " Because of thoughts like these, you've made the player worry more about their task score instead of just enjoying the game. Awkward Dialogue . If the Dev/Writer isn't American or a native English speaker, it's fine. If not? Then they should look into hiring someone to write better. None of the Love Interest feel like they have their own voice; several of them all talk and feel like the same character. Certain lines are also very repetitive. And the Dev should definitely get a proofreader . There are a lot of spots where [Character A] says something [Character B] should've said. Unbelievable "Family" Dynamic . These characters are written like you're just getting to know them. Which is good, for the player. But it's weird for the MC. It feels like you should be closer to your "roommates" if you've grown up and lived together. I'm not sure how long you've lived with Victor, but no sane person would put up with him for years. Despite their financial situation, Victor has no redeeming qualities that make him a fit father figure or husband. The story could've really benefitted from making him more a grey character; "a good man but tough when he needs to be" or something. Instead, he's clearly written as an unbearable asshole who's going to get kicked from the team and have his wife take from him. He's probably the flattest character. The MC and overall story aren't so bad. Though I prefer more silent protagonists or games that give me control over how my MC acts or speaks. MC comes off as the usual irresponsible and generic college kid who gets by on luck and nice women, like we usually get. I didn't mind the MC, but I can see how that frustrates other players. Because of the Task System, I was sick of this game half-way into Chapter 1. How I made so far? I couldn't tell you. The characters, I guess. Despite being a VN, it almost comes with all the frustrations of a sandbox game. I've played simpler games that were a lot better. Sometimes less is more. Your time and money would be better spent supporting other games.

Was already not a big fan of the slogfest Mr.Dots writes but still decided to give his latest project "thief of hearts" a try and gotta say, this is arguably his worst work yet. He tried to create something like oceans 11, a family of thieves pulling off a high risk heist sort of thing but for that to work you gotta have an MC who has an iq greater than 75. The game starts off with MC being introduced as someone who is highly fit, works at a gym, knows all sorts of martial arts, is extremely charming with the ladies but when it comes to showing his skills, he can't outrun his own sister, gets his ass beaten by some random thug and proceeds to get robbed by girls on 2 different occasions within the first 2 episodes itself. Not to mention this is no exception to the usual slog fest writing style of Mr.Dots where you gotta go through 12 hours of gameplay and random sex scenes from side characters to even get as much as a kiss from one of the main LIs.

I'm gonna be honest... this is a tough 3 stars to give... Honestly it should probably be like 3.5 .. It's not a bad game, it's frustrating, and there's some confusing things that hold it back, and keep it from being solidly good verging on great. So we all know Mr. Dots usually goes for a different kind of dynamic in these games with the characters and the type of relationships he likes to set. This is a breath of fresh air for me but still there's some elements of those other dynamics in this game a bit as well if you're looking for them. I have to give him kudos for trying something new. This is an ambitious story, and the changeup is also nice. Now for the things that aren't so great. We get the feeling of a stall where Mr.Dots knows EXACTLY who the people want to see the MC get close with, and unlike the other games, he's drawing them getting close out VERY slow... It's part 2 and MC hasn't penetrated ANYONE that he lives with.... Matter fact most of the lewd scenes are these "fantasy non cannon" scenes that are in there just to justify this being an "adult game" and to probably keep people from complaining... But it's frustrating and immersion breaking for it to just all be happening in a fantasy scene or a dream scene... I honestly feel if you're gonna do it like that, just have the balls to not put any in the game until it's time for them to REALLY happen anyway... Another frustrating bit is that, if you're up to knowledge on how crime and law stuff works here, then some of the things they get wrong can be annoying. Now I give leeway and credit to trying it out and getting some things right and being mindful to some things but some of these things kinda throw out immersion. There's also the fact that they break the 4th wall quite a bit but it doesn't really strike you as that kind of outrageous kind of game... The characters are pretty decent if not a cliche.. They're fine, nothing super memorable here... The dialogue is pretty much the same.. The story is different for this dev but it's nothing world changing or genre defining.. All in all it's a decent game, reaching for something new and great, it misses what it's reaching for but it's a decent attempt. Not his best work, it's a nice change but many things done here that hold it back. Worth a shot, don't know if it's worth a finish... Comes down to the person. It's sad, because this was his chance to show he's not really one note, but this one doesn't quite hit the mark as a hit game.
