May 2025
I have 35/50 achievements after getting 100% achievements for Thief Simulator 1, I am now "debt-free" in Thief Simulator 2 and about to wrap up the main story, presumably. When I initially saw this on sale with Thief Sim 1, I wasn't sure I wanted to buy in because Thief Sim 1 has more overwhelmingly positive reviews and it looks like they even released DLC for the first game AFTER releasing the second game, which is just kind of a weird feeling. Ultimately I appreciated it as I played through the first game knowing that it hadn't been fully abandoned for the sequel. So the question becomes: Why is Thief Sim 2 more critically reviewed than the first game? The first game created a solid framework for rewarding good planning, inventive thinking, diligence, and situational awareness. It spent a lot of time introducing and building on each core mechanic and making them load-bearing. Thief Sim 2 wears the same skeleton, so it can seem like you're going to have a highly similar experience, but it is structured somewhat differently, and I think that affects people coming in from Thief Sim 1. When I think back to my Thief Sim 1 experience, I think about dodging around cameras and guards, watching the tenant routines to make sure no one was assigned to the room I was in at the turn of the minute (in-game hour), but if someone was coming there were often lots of nooks and crannies to hop into to avoid them. Thief Sim 2 has a different philosophy about the core Thief Sim gameplay and opens it into something both more crude and more refined. There are fewer places to hide because you are given many tools to be able to anticipate the exact movements of each tenant. This encourages a type of gameplay where a property is like a clockwork puzzle you have to move through without getting jammed in the machinery. Thief Sim 2 is also harder from the beginning; Tenants are smarter, and they will get weirded out by open doors or drawers, or a door that should be locked but isn't. This could be frustrating for people who operate stealth games from a place of bravado and self-gratification. However, this game becomes maybe even easier than the first game towards the end, as you unlock Agility scores that allow you to run as fast as a car and jump fences in an almost superhuman way, as well as boots that allow you to run without making a sound, so that all you need to worry about are vision cones and cameras. You are given so many tools to succeed that the game becomes a power fantasy towards the end. This is the game I like the most, one where you start trying desperately to survive and end as a god of the world. Thief Sim 1 was a good stealth game; Thief Sim 2 is one step closer to being a full open world immersive sim. One last mention, the second game is a lot better at allowing you to sandbox the world and even respawns valuable loot in buildings to give you incentive to come back to them where the first game didn't. At one point I dropped the main quest and just sandboxed and built a fortune and bought all the tools I could. When I went back to the main quest line, I was overprepared for the next 4 or so quests. This is so much better than the handholding of the first game which gets fixed in its new game+.

An awesome stealth game with a good middle ground of being punishing and forgiving. Can be 100%ed in around 15 hours when started on Hard mode. Overwise a second playthrough is needed for the "Story on Hard mode" archievement.

Nice Part 2 of this Franchise. A lot of new features. a lot of fun, another good story. Keep the good work up man, its really impressive that you did these games on your own. Mad respect for that. 40h for 100% Achievments and 100% ingame. Greetings from Germany :) (One thing, the translations could be better XD)

This game is good and bad, let me explain: Pros: -Pretty decent graphics -The heists expand from TS1 and are a fun challenge -The people actually feel like people unlike TS1 -More items to steal -The story is way longer -Much better models -More QOL tweaks -More overall replayability -You can steal the President's phone Cons: -Gets really boring after you finish the story -Devil's Lair should've had more of a reward -Shooting Range serves absolutely no purpose besides a mild joke in the description -Apparently(Though I haven't experienced it for myself) it has crappy optimization -There's only 2 neighborhoods in contrast to TS1's 3 neighborhoods -There's only a few heists, most of which are just there to fill in the gaps -Dogs could've been a cool mechanic, but instead are more annoying tenants -The cloaking device was heavily nerfed from TS1, which ruins the fun of it -New game+ is nowhere to be seen, one of my favorite parts from TS1 -Going into George's Store causes him to freak out(It's a flipping store, just why?) -Lastly, it feels like an asset flip of TS1 with a few more mechanics and voice acting Thank you for listening!

I've played the first game and instantly fell in love with it. 2nd one is even better with different mechanics and gameplay. I was mind blown when I learned only 1 guy made this game. I would recommend this game for people who just wanna pass the time playing a singleplayer game.
