Thief: The Dark Project |
Action Game from Eidos Interactive, by Looking Glass Studios
First-person action adventure game. You play a thief named Garrett. The game consists of a series of well-designed missions. Objectives include stealing particular items, or performing rescue missions etc. Settings include castles, ruins, towns and caves.
Stealth is a crucial element in the game, although Garrett does have a few weapons. You must stick to the shadows of you are to succeed. A visibility display shows how obvious Garrett is at any given time. There is a good degree of realism in the behavior and response of guards, monsters and other NPCs the game effectively creates an atmosphere. Further realism is achieved by the implementation of 'real-world physics', thus objects can be handled and used in a more realistic way. In addition, materials play and important part, for instance tiled floors make a significant amount of noise.
The game's graphics, AI, audio and control system are good.
