This game even with its problems feels like a Thief game and i'm enjoying it a lot. Also I love fireplaces in old video games hahaha.

unlabelledView post →Works fine on Steam Deck. The main community control layout has some nonsense (270% stick sensitivity? Why?) so I shared a fixed version. Gameplay is simple but the emergent storytelling is fantastic. The voice acting and sound design are impressive. A real joy to play for any fan of immersive, emergent worlds.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →8.5/10 Story-wise it's one of the best games I've ever played. This was one of the first games I ever picked up to play and the Shalebridge Cradle mission is probably my favorite level in all of gaming and I'd recommend the game for that mission alone. Thief has a truly unique world with enemies that feel fleshed out and genuinely creepy. This is the ONLY game I've ever played that was able to make its zombies genuinely terrifying. Not because they're deadly, but because of the creepy way…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thief: Deadly Shadows is the third installment in the Thief series and continues the story of Garrett, the master thief in a dark, steampunk inspired world. While it retains many elements that made the previous games memorable, it also introduces some notable shifts. The most apparent change is its more linear structure. Compared to Thief: The Dark Project or Thief II, missions in Deadly Shadows feel more constrained. This linearity doesn't always serve the stealth experience well, especially…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →With the “Sneaky Upgrade” mod, you get a well-crafted stealth adventure with that classic Thief vibe. While it doesn't quite match the caliber of the first two games, it still looks pretty good even in 2026. 8 out of 10 Taffers.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Brings back so many childhood memories. Play with Sneaky Upgrade and ReShade - worth it. The former changes the gameplay a bit, adds few cosmetic options, has new textures, and quite a lot of convenience settings, merges certain maps together for smoother play. The latter simply makes the game look gorgeous. Many call this game the weakest of the originals. I can say that, to me, it's the best one in the franchise. The previous two are simply too ugly and too limited in my opinion. I know T:DS…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thief Deadly Shadows marked the third entry in the iconic stealth series, and while it carried forward many of the franchise’s signature elements, at its best, the game nails the tension and atmosphere that defined the earlier titles. Sneaking through candlelit mansions, listening for footsteps, and extinguishing torches with well aimed water arrows still feels satisfying. The sound design is a standout every creak of a wooden floorboard or muffled conversation behind a door pulls you deeper…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not nearly as good as the first 2 games but still an extremely enjoyable experience. "Sneaky Upgrade" fan made patch is practically a requirement though but it's simple to install.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spookier Thief got a demo ! "The Citadel Project is a first-person stealth game with lite survival-horror elements, inspired by the Thief series and set in a dark fantasy world. Use your tools and surroundings wisely, stay hidden in the shadows, and uncover the dark secrets"
unlabelledView post →I'm almost done with the Life of the Party mission in Thief 2 and it was the best mission so far. This game has been so amazing. One of the best Windows 98 games of all time.
unlabelledView post →The worse part about looking for stealth games that hit the same way that Thief and Dishonored do is that people will call any game with the vaguest of stealth elements a "stealth game" when it comes time for catagorization Unless those systems are as indepth its not a fucking stealth game

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm biased. I put 1000 hours into og xbox version of this, and was willing to go through the effort of making it work on my 5070ti. A space ship to run to the store for milk situation. Worth the bundle, I'm playing 4 again, next. Probably won't even try the older games, and i think any game older than 15 years should just be included in every bundle of that series for free, but it's nice to have if i ever decide to get weirder.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A classic series with another game that just doesn't work well on a modern machine.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Enjoyed this as much as the other two. The game still looks very very good. Soundtrack is atmospheric and creates appropriate mood. You can see Spektor's hand all over the game, same systems driven game design. Gameplay is still certified Thief gameplay but now with a little bit of Deus Ex. Sadly the game was an original XBOX release, so levels are much simpler than in the previous two games. But that is compensated by more involved story with good storytelling. Much more cut scenes and…
