Having received training from an enigmatic organization known as the Keepers, Garrett leaves the order and goes back to the life of a thief on the streets of the City. Once you enter the underworld you have to deal with all the consequences - you are not the only one out there looking for decent loot. Hide in the shadows of the dark, savage city. Sneak into old ruins, haunted cathedrals and mansions of the rich. Incapacitate your enemies quietly or in an open fight. This unique sneak-em-up game provides you with a range of means to achieve your goal. Remember though - secrecy is your best friend.
THIEF™ GOLD is a first-person perspective stealth game. It was the first game to use light and sound gameplay mechanics – different surfaces cause varying noise (for example carpets are quiet and ceramic tiles are very loud). You can use sound to your advantage - it’s not only your main source of information on how close your enemies are but you can use it to distract them, for example by throwing objects. With unscripted levels, and objectives and paths altered based on difficulty settings, THIEF™ GOLD can give you hours of non-repetitive gameplay.

Truly a must-play game... I played it for the first time last year and I can honestly say it made a huge impression on me, definitely one of the best games I've played in all my years. The Gold Edition is also WAY better than the original, so kudos to GOG for that.
There are some texture mods available that make the game look a bit better, but the single biggest improvement you can make is ensure you get EAX working properly. It truly takes this game to the next level on the immersion scale.
And what can I say about the main protagonist, Garrett... one of the best characters who's shoes you'll ever step into, I cannot wait to play the sequels!
Thief is almost a perfect game. Almost. The gameplay is absolutely solid, feels better than most games made today, the weapons feel great, the characters and voice acting is better than most movies, the graphics look a bit dated but have lots of charm, and the engine feels great. The level design is also beyond incredible. Most levels are dense, rich, open mazes that feel meticulously designed and perfected. Like Deus Ex, it's younger brother, the game allows you to go about levels as you wish, sometimes letting you explore the perimeters before diving into the meat of the game and allowing you to plan your attack. You could knock everyone out and go through the front door, or steal the key off the guard and swim through the sewers. For 1998, this was revolutionary and it still feels fresh today. What also feels fresh is the fact that your character, Garrett actually TALKS! Yes, Gordon Freeman, Link and Claude might be great because they don't speak, but it's truly refreshing to hear your character talk in a game made around the same time, especially as the voice acting is so superb. The voice acting of Garrett is just amazing and will simply never age. If you can find a way to get this game working with the cutscenes, you'll have a way better experience. All the weapons seem very well designed, but it's also were this game falls short. The blackjack for example is supposed to be used to knock out unsuspecting guards, however, getting close enough to hit them over the head without them or one of their friends seeing is a real pain as, if spotted, all it seems to do is agitate them, so quicksaving will be used frequently and there is no other way to knock them out without them finding out or harming yourself. Over all though, the game is phenomenal and these are very minor problems. Would highly recommend to anyone who enjoyed Deus Ex or SS2 or really any oldschool FPP/RPG/FPS games.
I've played through this game countless times and keep returning to it. Thief is beyond a classic, it is a masterpiece. The only games that have surpassed it are its sequels. The story is engaging, disturbing and unique. The sound system fills your imagination from the groans of zombies to every footfall. The game makes you relish sneaking from shadow to shadow. Planning each attack. Hiding every body. And for your troubles you are rewarded with little stashes of gold. The designers of Thief took special pleasure in hiding their troves of loot, in fact the secrets of the Thief series are unparalleled. From tiny buttons hidden in the eyes of statues to special books on bookshelves, to little levers hidden underneath desks. The gameplay of Thief is mission and goal oriented rather than a matter of clearing areas of enemies. It is also one of the few games where it pays to play on the higher difficulties because you are rewarded with more goals and trickier mission constraints (such as not being able to kill anyone. Don't fret you have a blackjack and those unconscious guards are as good as dead.) Each guard is a challenge and each needs special attention. Some have fixed routes in which you can wait in the shadows then slip behind for a quick knock the the head and a furtive heft of their body to dump in some dark corner (leaving bodies in the open tips off other guards). Others turn this way and that making you dread the short spans of loud flooring you will have to cover to knock them out or endure in the hopes of slipping by.
As for the story, you are treated to a vibrant world alive with intrigues of its own beyond your main quest. Rival nobles, stupid guards, warring factions, all detailed not just through the cut scenes but also through numerous books, scrolls, and overheard conversations. You'll listen in the shadows as guards discuss matters of their nobles, key plot points, vital hints that add to your mission objectives and general and often hilarious chit chat. The themes of the game are dark and surprisingly deep and mature.
While the graphics are dated, the game still succeeds in making you feel vulnerable. You will cower in the corners praying the guards will turn back to their patrol routes. That the zombies will stop hunting you because you managed to run out of holy water and don't have enough health to try an assault with your sword. You will not regret playing this game. And if you're still not convinced, realize that an entire community of gamers has produced hundreds if not thousands of fan missions for this game ever since it's release in 1998. Yes, they are still obsessed with this game and it is worth the obsession.
With a name like "Thief," you may expect the game to involve a fair bit of burglary, pilfering, and snatching. It does, surely. The first mission, a classic, has you swipe a baron's prized possession and as many other valuables along the way.
However, there is a deeper story and world to this game. A world with its own religions, secret societies, and zombies. Of course, there has to be zombies.
By the second level, you're fending off the undead with holy water. By the third, you're going toe-to-toe with dinosaur-like monsters in underground caverns.
This is when the game starts to become simultaneously wonderful and frustrating.
On one hand, it has some incredible level design. There is a strong emphasis on verticality and paying very close attention to your surroundings for loot. My favorite level, "The Sword", plays with your mind in ways that I almost never see in modern level design. It's wonderous, especially in this version.
However, for as much wonder, there are sections or entire levels that devolve into endless, featureless mazes. Almost paradoxically, you will find less and less loot for thieving. This becomes frustrating when certain loot levels are required to clear a level and you have to scour every nook and cranny for the darn goblet you missed.
Also, there is a fair amount of platforming which feels a bit clunky in the first-person perspective. Combat is a bit hairy, but you're actively encouraged not to engage in combat so it is not a major issue. The AI is a bit dull-witted so it is not hard to avoid combat even on the highest difficulties.
The atmosphere is dark and foreboding throughout, and the occasional monster does add a spice of ambience. However, I typically come to a game like this for stealth and thieving, not so much blowing up monsters.
Overall, an interesting experience and inspiring for designing other games.
Thief is a classic stealth game which was much improved upon by its sequel. In particular, there are certain levels in this game which actually do emphasize combat, which is incredibly unforgiving. However, the original Thief does benefit from a more grounded story than its sequels, which struggled to add lore to what was a somewhat thin premise. If you love Thief 2 and need more, you should have plenty of fun with this one as well.
