EPIC! A nostalgic game I grew up watching my Dad play, the narrative is incredible. Can't say enough how much I love this game.

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.

One of my all times favorite game. It isn't that optimized for modern PCs/Laptops but with The Sneaky Upgrade Community Patch, you will linger for more content, it's so goddamn good. I wished it was longer and had an open world + the graphics and the atmosphere are just pure perfectness. The sound effects, the music, everything is awesome. 10/10 , I would recommend you to play it with the patch for the best experience.

I've never played the other Thief games, so I can't say how this one compares. I played this one back when it first came out and loved it then, so when I saw it again in a Steam sale for practically free I grabbed it out of nostalgia. 20 years later it's still enjoyable, and the Shalebridge Cradle is still super creepy One piece of advice - quicksave frequently. I did experience crashes occasionally, and a weird bug where Garrett would start floating and be unable to jump or crouch. I suppose that's to be expected from something so old running on an unofficial patch, but it doesn't significantly detract from the experience.

Just download SneakyTweaker from Nexus and the game's perfect! No bugs, has 1920x1080 support. Literally the best stealth game on Steam.
