Rough but worth it
Unlike many games with "Simulation" in its title, this one genuinely tries to be a good game. It's very rough in some spots, but there's clearly a lot of effort put in. If you can get past the premise of playing as a criminal, it's quite a lot of fun despite its issues. As you've surely realized, you play as a thief. Your goal is to steal stuff and sell it to people who don't ask questions for a profit, so you can improve your toolset and be able to steal more and better stuff. The story is just basically an excuse. You can nearly entirely ignore it. As far as I know it's only needed to unlock the other neighborhoods, but since story-mandated goals are simple and unintrusive you can easily go through them as you play. While the basic game might look simplistic at first, it grows in complexity without ever feeling complicated. Breaking in a house at first is as simple as casing a place to know when the owners are out and breaking a window or sneaking through the back door with a lockpick. But things get increasingly complicated: windows start getting alarms, doors start getting stronger locks, some owners never leave the house, cameras and security guards start showing up, fences start getting taller, etc. So you need to start using better tools and learn newer tactics. Stealth is key. The stealthier you are, the better your rewards. You can escape if you trigger an alarm or someone sees you, but if you're undetected you'll reap better results. Coming back to a house later will have some items be replaced, but others not. The more expensive stuff doesn't get replaced, so if you sell it to the wrong guy you'll lose a lot of profit. The game's main issue is that it's a bit janky. Some control and design issues needed more time in the oven. Hopefully the announced sequel will address them. Despite its flaws, it's quite a fun experience and I recommend it.
