Theresia (テレジア), known in Japan as Theresia: Dear Emile, is a psychological horror visual novel adventure game developed by WorkJam and published by Aksys Games, released exclusively for the Nintendo DS. It is one of the few DS games to receive an ESRB rating of M for "Mature" and a CERO rating of C from "ages 15 and older", and is the fifth of 11 DS games overall to be issued the former rating for a North American release.[1] The game was released on September 11, 2008, in Japan and on October 30, 2008, in North America. Arc System Works acquired the rights to the series in 2017.

The game is the second release of a mobile phone game series of the same name. The first title, named "Theresia..." came out in 2006 for DOCOMO FOMA phones. The DS version contains a remake of that title, titled "Dear Martel."[2]
