Criminally Yours
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
You're the next generation of heroes—"Oracle," given to your mother and you for your ability to see glimpses into the future.
The only thing that stands in your way of keeping peace in the city is the supervillain "Chronos".
When you aren't protecting the city from Chronos, you're just an average everyday civilian working as a project manager with your long-time crush, Nikolaos.
Little do you know that Nikolaos knows your secret, but you don't know his—that he and Chronos are one and the same.

This was freaking amazing 10/10, i ate up this VN. Can't wait for the update! Again, fantastic work! c:
Ví un video de el juego y es de los mejores que e visto solo me encantaría que fuera compatible con Android
this was so good im going to cry
Amazing vn, i liked this proyect so much, thank you for this :")
OH MY GODDDD this was so peak SO PEAK. this is everything i've ever wanted in a VN. the music was immaculate and did such an incredible job with enhancing the atmosphere. thank you for keeping it open to everyone with the pronoun choices. as a queer person i appreciate it so much. i can't wait for the second part to drop!
I had a thought, it might be kinda niche. The way Chronos talks to Oracle in the first action sequence gives 'bard trying to seduce the bbeg vibes.' Anyways I love the game! Down a little too bad for the evil crazy blonde man and I'm so curious to see how this all goes down.
Also, is his name Chronos because of his memory because having photographic memory could be considered rewinding time to look back at it?
I fell in love with this game! I love it, even i'd say it's the best visual novel ever, i love the voices, the story and how there were little details or hints, i hope you release the chapter 2!
Im in love with Nik, can't wait until part 2. I wonder if his personality be different now that we know his secret👀
Wait is the game have open ending or there will be next chapter I confused
the next chapter/part 2 comes out August 1st. It’ll be the final part of the game 🫶
neuron activation when i saw yandere and blonde
Nice music, nice voice acting, nice art. I like the story so far and he's definitely interesting.
I love love love the plot and the male lead!!!!
EVERYTHING from the art style to the gameplay to the music was really done well and its so fun to play. Voice Acting was my fave though
*swoons*
Ah he's perfect perfect and the cliffhanger??? i've got one finger hanging on and its about to slip... I need the rest of the plot before I really slip! Save me devs save me!!!
I just aughhhh~ I
NEEDtocrackhim your honor. AHHHH-> ꉂ \(˃▽˂ )/PLAY THIS GAME TRUST. (ദ്ദി ๑>•̀๑)
(BARELY A MINOR SPOILER) The sound track was brilliant "Time's running out" has to be my top track. Like just the vibe it gives is wonderful with its particular scenes! like towards the end you could just FEEL the stress radiating off Y/N like-
>>> "Oh no I need to leave...NOW." <<<
Plus for being a villain (which was ALMOST ovb come on Y/N..lol..) hes not to bad I mean like...12/10 WOULD honestly. Which is how I know Im def more cut out to be a vigilante than a hero like batman at some point! XD
I even said "imagine if this was the end of the game then proceded to Not knock on wood THEN THE GAME ENDED...BUMMER...but I cant wait for more likeeee Ima there for the update "like a phoenix rising from its ashes"!~
Just thinking about it now hypes me up >:D
OH and the way I was hooked to this and the plot for HOURS I tell you... HOURSSSSSS- (about to be 4 hours in & chat Im enjoying my timeeee<3) ₍₍⚞(˶˃ ᗜ ˂˶)⚟⁾⁾
I love this game so much, and it has fantastic music <3
I was a bit confused by the d description, is it a NSFW game? I'd love to play if it is.
i mean it does talk sometimes abt nsfw in some scenes but i don't think is a whole nsfw game.
Bless you, thank you so much for answering. It reminds me of those Love 360 games. They don't do the hanky panky via CGs but the text is very spicy. I'm surprised some of those games were allowed on the market. Because of the strict guidelines/rules. 😹
OMG it's been ages since I thought about Love 365. I feel your vibe
I only recently discovered the company and was bummed that they took the super star Otome off the app store. 😭
- Good news is 90% of Love 365 games are on Nintendo Switch shop and Steam. 🥹
They're on switch now?! I didn't even know. Man, I can't believe they took it off the app store though.
I LOVED this VN it was awsome aswell as the plot and i hate the cliffhanger it left us onnn!!! i cant wait for the full game!
this was so GOOD! also the soundtrack is PEAK! nobody talked nearly ENOUGH about this i'm a huge music nerd with a fixation on classical music & jazz so this was literally everything i could ever ask for. the voice acting was TOP notch! i kind of love the open ending also the chemistry between the MC & nik is soooo good i love their banter! am looking forward to more future projects <3_<3
def one of my fave otome in a while, i'd totally pay for this if you made a DLC in the future!! also we never got to know what his abilities are...
what? what? WHAAAAT?! It ends there. omg. This thing was a slow build up. But those last few minutes were perfect. Haa. I am so excited for the other half. I do wonder if there's more to his heterochromia other than a stylistic choice.
Good luck devs!
THE MC'S NAME IS DELPHI...AND THEIR SUPERHERO ALIAS IS ORACLE....GREEK MYTH REF?? APOLLO GOD OF PROPHECY, MUSIC AND PLAGUE MENTIONED???
A fun exercise in dramatic irony :3 what a great project!
WOW I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. incredible build up.
love it
PART 2 PLEASEEEE!
spoiler :3
LMFAOO. the way i knew he was chronos from the start, but when he said the line chronos said.. i did the slowest turn ever like 🤔🤔 when did you ever say that?!?!
This is crazy good. I need to know what happens next. *__*
I'm feral for Nik, I'm a simp and I would bark for him <3
I'm so shameless about it it's not even funny
这个游戏太棒了。Nik 的占有欲和对 MC 的无意偏执太可爱了,期待下半场会如何发展!🫶🫶💞💞💞💞💞💞
this gaame is AMAZING
Wow! First of all, i would like to congratulate everyone involved in the creation of this incredible and well-done job! This is a project in which we play and fell the love and care and hard work put into every detail.
I loved the narrative, music, characters, art, and oh, Nik, the man you are...
I really can't wait to see how this game progresses! It was a really enjoyable experience.
THAT WAS SOOOOO GOOOD???!!! i need more omg !! i love the duality in Nick/Chronos, the perfect mix!! i can't wait for more good luck
IT WAS SO GOOD. i loveeee the voice acting, the plot, the characters. wow. one of my favs i can't wait for part two!!!!
when i tell you i am FERAL FOR THIS STORY/GAME?? this visual novel is so great, the art, the stellar voice acting, the dialogue, everything. i absolutely cannot wait until part two. i would pay hundreds to play this game if i had to, seriously amazing <3
I NEED MORE!! PLEASE, I BEG OF YOU! BLESS US 🙏🏽 I NEED A PART 2 TO CONTINUE. In other words, this was amazing, I loved it. Please give us more, you CANNOT leave us like this..This is practically edging :(
I LOVED ITTTTTTTTTTT!! IT WAS SO GOOD OMGGG i would love if we have more scenes of cronos :DD
GOOD LAWD, I KNEW HIS ASS WAS CHRONOS JS FROM THE DESCRIPTIONS BEFORE DOWNLOADING BUT JESUS IT STILL HAD ME FOAMING.... the last scene had me crawling ... #release more
This is perfect, I LOVED the comic book style. I am trying to find different kinds of otome games and this was like a fresh air to me. The cliffhanger is written good, especially the ending monologue of Nik made my jaw drop. I can't wait for the second part <3
This was incredibly well made! Ya’ll really know how to hook someone. The storyline so far is amazing, I loved the designs in-game, the voice acting was phenomenal, and the cliffhanger immediately drew me into wanting more. You did a wonderful job, and I can’t wait to see what you have in store for the next update. ;]
WOW I loved this game! Can't wait for part two? will it be a continuation of this one or like a backstory or new one? Also love how you added Chronos's POV at the end hahah
Thank you for your kind words! We plan for it to be a direct continuation of this part, with some added backstory when needed. 💖
Wow. That was incredible. Can't wait for part two!
i was a bit hesitant to play at first bcs superheros arent really my favourite but DAMN WAS THIS GOOD. keeping an eye on this asf
