FPS - a First Person Sneaky

The first - and best - stealth-em-up game with an original setting, immersive atmosphere and an education in all round sneakiness. This has gameplay in spades which still stands tall today (one hell of an achievement for a 14 year old title). Legging it round the manor corridors after accidently jumping on an uncarpeted floor with the cries of "C'mere you taffer" from the portly guard who gives up the ghost after I take a dive into a stream in the garden outside, holding my breath underwater where I can't be seen, I take my revenge by tip-toeing after him, lurking in the shadows, crouching in doors, waiting motionless in archways while he continues on his patrol route, before stepping out and clubbing him on the back of the head with my blackjack, picking up his unconcious body and deposting it in the corner of a cellar concealing him in the shadows. I make my way back to the room upstairs to help myself to the prize. This is the drama of Thief. Unsurpassable.

Re-Playing A Classic!

When Thief first hit store shelves, I remember picking up my copy from the local store and installing this game for the first time in anticipation of what looked like a great game. Playing this game again years after it's original un-installation, brings back many fond memories of this stealthy classic. The game still plays fantastic and the atmospheric setting is steeped in a deep and dark story with a foreboding sense of mystery, with the urge of exploration that drives you forward to uncover the dark secrets of the Hammer. Skulking around the dark streets and hallways, I found myself physically leaning around corners on my chair, before I snapped back into reality that I actually need to press a keyboard button to execute that action. The atmosphere does pull you in and even makes you whisper just in case the hammer guards hear you. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking for a great classic, stealthy FPS, that brings back the meaning of what it is to be a well developed game.

One of the all-time greatest games

This is easily one of my top five favourite games of all time. It may be my favourite. Simply put, it is a pure stealth game. This is a game where, if you get into combat, you're pretty well screwed (and on the highest difficulty, you are actually not allowed to kill anyone human, though you can knock them out). Everything is about careful planning and good execution. The levels are about as nonlinear as I have ever seen in a game, and the challenges often have multiple solutions. After all this time I would still say this game is phenomenal. For an extra challenge, try to play the hardest difficulty without even knocking anyone unconscious (the 'Lydia style' of play, named for a famous Thief player). The only problem with this game is, after playing it, almost no other stealth game will feel worth looking at.

The true art of making an ORIGINAL game!

I do not care what anyone says, long before I ever hard of Metal Gear Solid... There was THE DARK PROJECT. Genre Defining, The Stealth Em Up as I called it was started HERE! I first got the game many years back, an long after its initial release - And from the start I was hooked! So what makes the game so special? Graphics are just the right side of "Good" given the age - Yes there is a lot of Polygons and stuff, but they work and work well... In fact if you were to put MGS next to TDP you would see just how far the Genre had come since those early days. The Story is excellent... There are dozens of locations to explore even if the Enemies are limited (But hell! That's a complaint with most games...) Its dark brooding medieval setting just adds to the atmosphere and makes this a perfect addition to anyone's game collection who fancies a break from the usual Blast Everything in Sight jobs. Issues: NOthing Major unless you play on a more modern PC - This game does NOT like Compatibility Mode so is useless on Windows 7 - Or was... Then came GOG! Now the game is playable once more and I am back to having the full collection (I have the Third on DVD Rom and the Originals on a Sold Out Double Sided Disc but can only play the Second...) - If you have never played before - Come and accept the challenge, Beating this game is hard... Mastering it is EVEN HARDER!

One of the best games of all time

The Thief games are legendary, especially Thief: The Dark Project and Thief 2: The Metal Age. They are all known because of their revolutionary game mechanics and design, the first title being the one that came with special sound effects on different kind of surfaces, a large variety of tools, a lot of diversity (enemies, places, sounds) and so on. Before this master-piece were developed, stealth games never had this kind of features. Even today, Thief Gold (the newest version of Thief: TDP) is considered the best (or one of the best) stealth creations ever and almost 20 years had passed. I think no words are necessary to say from now, just take this awesome game and enjoy every detail. It's a experience you'll never meet again.
