Thief Gold Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The best game I have ever played. Period. The best for adventurers, the best for strategists, the best for action gamers. If you have not purchased THIEF yet, go with THIEF GOLD, as it includes three extra (and fantastic) levels at no extra charge. If you already purchased the original, don'tworry--you get a $10 rebate in it for already buying it previously, PLUS a$10 rebate off the future release of THIEF II! Going completely against thetired idea of running-around-in-mazes-blasting-things which has alreadybeen run into the ground, THIEF requires stealth, care and strategy,requiring you to stay in the shadows, move quietly and carefully, pickingoff enemies without being discovered. No, it's NOT as easy or boring as itsounds. THIEF is so immersive and involving, so guaranteed to get yourblood pumping through you to the point where your face will turn beet red,that it has single-handedly made my fellow game fans, once they discoveredit, take former favorite games like UNREAL and QUAKE and either toss theminto the garbage or hock them at their local used software store. It's thatgood. Forget new releases like OMIKRON, THIEF delivers in a way that noother title does, so amazingly well that you will swear you are actuallyTHERE. It's just about worth the purchase of a PC alone just to play it.The must-have for anyone with a 3D acceleration card.

Follow this first-person role playing game through updated missions and new levels: Thieves Guild--Garrett has heard that the Downwind Thieves Guild has pulled off a daring heist, stealing Lord Randall's sapphire vase. However, they are now squabbling among themselves about how to share the loot. Garrett decides to go in and steal it himself. He intends to break in through a gambling den they operate called the Overlord's Fancy. Mages Guild--In the ruined city, the Keeper Chapel revealed that the Mages Tower was the hiding place for the Talisman of Air. Garrett breaks into the tower to steal it. The talisman is being held in the central tower of the Mages Towers and is secured by spells. To free it, Garret has to get one master Mage from each of the towers to stand on a particular pedestal and touch his ring to a symbol. Garrett must find his way to the central library, unlock its doors with items found in the towers, and then unlock the door to the Talisman Room to get the talisman. Songs of the Caverns--Garrett searches for the Talisman of Water, which is hidden in an underground cavern deep below the city. However, he soon learns that someone else has already stolen it, and his only clues as to who it is come from the ravings of a lunatic hermit.

Thief Gold (small box version) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is one of the original stealth action games. It is entertaining and completely immersive. If you like first-person shoot-em-up games... don't play Thief. Well, do play Thief, because it's great, but it's a completely different experience.

Don't come to Thief hoping to go slashing merrily towards your goal. Oftentimes slashing your way towards any goal is a sure-fire way to fail a mission. (It's called Thief, not Murderer) The levels set out challenges that have to be met with subtlety and innovation, which, personally, is more satisfying to me. It's not quite as interactive as Thief 3, where you can change the environment to snare enemies, but, as the game that started it all, it is just as entertaining.

The levels in Thief Gold give you a variety of goals, and there are multiple strategies for playing. This game spawned its own following with different kinds of players, and a community of fans which is still operating today. This game is simply a lot of fun, and the Gold version gives you even more levels and challenges.

As far as the ages that this game is appropriate for, I'd say that the level is fairly mature. It's not too gory, just because the graphics are old, but this doesn't take away from the experience, and you still have to deal with zombies, blood splatters, and cinematics which are animated well, and with a distinctive style not seen in modern games. (someone referenced the eye-popping scene, it's not too graphic, and doesn't show much, but it could be disturbing for young-uns)

From the manufacturer: "Journey through the night...as Garrett, a master thief, cloaked in the darkness of a sinister medieval realm where shadows are your only ally, trust is not an option, and confrontations can bring grim results.

Steal from the Downwind thieves in The Thieves' Guild, enter a ruined city in The Mage's Guild, and go in search of the stolen Talisman of Air guided by the ravings of a lunatic hermit in The Songs of the Caverns.
