No location is truly off-limits — houses, banks, shops, and museums are all fair game when you've got the right equipment and the knowledge to use it.
Climb the criminal ladder through a county riddled with corruption, uncovering the dark secrets locals would rather keep buried.
Virtually any building you lay eyes on is a potential target — but do your homework on whoever lives or works inside before making your move. Getting caught isn't part of the plan.
VHS tapes, cassette players, CRT televisions — ring any bells? Whether they bring back memories or feel completely foreign, the locals will be generously sharing these retro treasures with you. They just won't know it yet.
Build your cash reserves and street reputation as you carve out a name for yourself in an underground world where crime and corruption reign supreme.
When things go sideways, jumping behind the wheel and flooring it may be your only escape — just don't underestimate the law. The police mean business and won't hesitate to give chase.
Keep some bribe money handy to stay off their radar and clear your wanted status.
Take a break with a variety of retro-inspired minigames. Chase down high scores and rack up achievements along the way!
Arm yourself with essential breaking-and-entering tools — crowbars, bolt cutters, lockpicks — and put them to work on your next score.
KEY FEATURES:
- steal from houses, trailers, banks, shops, mansions and more
- use lockpicks, crowbars and other tools to break in
- finish shady jobs for cash and reputation
- drive around seamless sandbox
- buy and steal cars
- buy houses and decorate them
- disguise yourself as an electrician or put on a suit to fool tenants
★★★★☆ – Classic Thief Fun in an 80s Skin Playtime: 17 hours What I liked: If you’ve played Thief Simulator, you’ll feel right at home here. The gameplay is pretty much the same — sneaking into houses, picking locks,
Thought it would be funny. It wasn´t. Watching the neighbourhood for an real life hour while eating my dinner, then getting beat down with a stick by the homeowner. Story is boring, but i didn´t get too far into it.
"American Theft 80s" is a love letter to the '80s – neon colors, VHS vibes, and plenty of criminal energy included. Just like the '80s were in the States. You take on the role of a small-time low life junkie, or more
I wouldn't say this massively screams 80s (besides the odd items you steal) however I've enjoyed the thief sims and didn't know about this one. If you enjoy those and have a crime spree itch. This is worth a go. When on
If you like the Thief Simulator games, you'll love American Theft 80s. I had a lot of fun playing this one. I only wish it was longer and had even more to do in it towards the end. Great game.
My review is entirely based on having played Thief Simulator and the being tempted to buy this, albeit in the sale. This adds nothing to the experience. The mechanics are just as clunky and the 80's setting is novelty
