Eidos Interactive's 1998 classic Thief: The Dark Project is one of the pioneer games in the popular stealth action genre. In it you controlled the master thief Garrett and soon found that hiding in shadows and knocking out enemies from behind was much easier than attempting a frontal assault. Thief: Deadly Shadows, the third chapter in the series, mixes classic stealth gameplay with expansive missions, a deep storyline, and a sprawling city to rob.
