Having received training from an enigmatic organization known as the Keepers,
Garrett leaves the order and goes back to the life of a thief on the streets of the
City. Once you enter the underworld you have to deal with all the consequences – you are
not the only one out there looking for decent loot. Hide in the shadows of the dark,
savage city. Sneak into old ruins, haunted cathedrals and mansions of the rich.
Incapacitate your enemies quietly or in an open fight. This unique sneak-em-up game
provides you with a range of means to achieve your goal. Remember though – secrecy is
your best friend. Thief Gold is a first-person perspective stealth game. It was the
first game to use light and sound gameplay mechanics – different surfaces cause varying
noise (for example carpets are quiet and ceramic tiles are very loud). You can use sound
to your advantage – it’s not only your main source of information on how close your
enemies are but you can use it to distract them, for example by throwing objects. With
unscripted levels, and objectives and paths altered based on difficulty settings, Thief
Gold can give you hours of non-repetitive gameplay. This extended edition includes all
of the missions from the first release, as well as three new missions adapted to the
original storyline, with full voice acting and new graphics. It can still be considered
the first game in the Thief series.
