    Impressive, this first person stealth game really did pull it off.

    40% Action 10% Adventure 50% Stealth Alright I have a bone to pick with this game. I like the game for the first like 7 levels, good idea to keep the killing down to some degree but they went too far. I like getting t... Read Full Review

    Not to shabby. Already a classic.

    I played this first in the series. It grabbed my attention with the sneaking, and looting mechanic. As the latest part of this series this sure is a fun way to sharpen your skills for the next. Personally I'd skip thi... Read Full Review

    A game that defined a new genre: stealth adventure.

    Thief is a revolutionary game. It simply brought new life to the first person shooter genre. Incredibly, with just 10 years of existence, first person shooters were already suffering from the fate of repeated formulas an... Read Full Review

    I spent hours playing this game and loved it I'd be happy if the'd remake it with new or different levels.

    The first thing I’ll say is remake it with the new Thief: Deadly Shadows engine and maybe with a few upgrades to it. But I have to say this game was superb! I spent a long time trying to beat the game on normal then on e... Read Full Review

    So I'm gonna go against popular opinion here...

    Back when this game came out in 98 one of my school friends told me all about it. He isn't a particularly excitable guy but he was going absolutely crazy about Thief: The Dark Project. So four years later, in winter 2002... Read Full Review

    One of the two games that redefined the FPS genre.

    Now this is one of the games that you can call "breakthrough". Creating a new sub-genre called "Stealth-action", Looking Glass Technologies not only created a believable world of technology and magic, but also created an... Read Full Review

    This must be the best stealth game I have ever played in my life time.

    For all the stealth games I played in 2005, this game is the best stealth game I ever faced. The gameplay is solid. The game conceived a extraordinary atmosphere and some of the atmosphere can be creepy and scary. Even i... Read Full Review

    Gotta have patience with this type of game.

    Okay, so this is not the normal runna-shoota'em up... And of course no point in comparing it to Splinter Cell series as many do, because it is simply not even the same genre. Thief is *ALL* about stealth, you live it, y... Read Full Review
