At first, "Show off" is not a bad mission. It´s not groundbreaking either, but still should provide about 1h of gameplay.
While the architecture wouldn´t win a price and most city parts are unnecessary, because they are empty and not really much detailled, the museum itself is ok. Just a classic looting mission with no frills.
Still, the end i...

My Favorite Year was the 20th anniversary contest FM I'd been leaving till last and thankfully, I wasn't disappointed. I was, however, surprised. The premise of the mission suggested to me this would be something in the vein of Bafford's Manor or Assassins, but the ultimate result is far more evocative of, specifically, Shipping...and Receiving ...

What can I say? Show Off doesn't exactly break new ground, but it's a solid take on a proven formula. A museum is always a fun environment to burgle, and while it's perhaps a little heavy on the empty open space, Show Off still manages to contend a believable museum, of similar size to several of the smaller of such establishments I've visited i...

Let´s face it, if you play this mission just for the mansion, it might not be the right one. The mansion part is ok, but only the surface of the mission. The hidden section is cool and resembles Bonehoard, but it´s intertwined with the TMA parts with a venture of the Mechanists set into it. There are some riddles that are not too hard, the missi...

Where The Unknown Lurks is a strange animal. It's a tiny, two objective in-and-out nick stuff mission with a much larger optional Bonehoard style space hidden under a secret beneath it. It's entirely possible to never see two thirds of the mission because you can simply avoid finding out about or completing the secret puzzle. The mansion space i...

If I should choose one-word expressions to describe this mission, then "Unexpected", "Unlike", "Odd" would be the first among them. The mission lives up to its name. I cannot even simply define it as "city" or "mansion" or "sewer" mission - because "Into the Odd" mixes them and constantly changes the conditions and places where player finds its...

"Compulsory Egress" is a brilliant and creepy mission, stunning for a first release from its author.

I was initially skeptical: it opens in a big, open area, seemingly barren of almost anything. On second thought, this desolation sets the scene perfectly.

Garrett has arrived in a town that is nearly deserted, its inhabitants having been fo...

Another addition to the "Thieves Highway" genre, probably my favorite type of FM, and this one quickly shot to the top of my list of favorites. The sense of vertigo is really tremendous, with the buildings often jammed close together over a long drop, and in fact aside from an optional trip into a graveyard you don't even touch the ground on thi...

Not sure Troubling Transitions is winning any awards any time soon, but if like me you despised every official LGS level that mentions a cathedral you could do far worse than this for a panacea. It's not particularly difficult, but neither is it boring or poorly made, and tracking around the neighbourhood via various skywalks is a fun exercise. ...

Before I started this FM I was already given pause by the seemingly incredibly conceited manner in which the author describes the scale of difficulty. I was not aware of GORT as some sort of Thief FM impresario, and I'm skeptical of the idea now. True enough, there are additional axes of difficulty present in The Pursuance of An Inscrutable Reci...

While this mission is rather small(I finished in about 50 minutes on Expert), it is a nice addition to the list. It has a vibe of Shipping with some additional story elements(that reminded me a bit of the pirates/smugglers from T2X). Not too hard(I found only one archer, the rest are standard sword guards), rather easy. Writings are ok, they are...

Ten Little Taffers starts out strong by being an And Then There Were None pastiche, which is scientifically proven to be the best thing a stealth, adventure or detective game can possibly be. The traditional three difficulty levels are instead replaced by three different stories in the same space and time, which is also very interesting and allo...

This mission is overall well designed. Not the biggest one, but packed with several places you can visit. Climbing can be helpful but isn´t needed to finish it. It has some custom recorded dialogues which are are also of good quality.
The backstory is ok - while not a masterpiece it serves the setting to hear the dialogues or read something abo...

Rewelacja! Ta FMka mnie naprawdę zachwyciła zwłaszcza, że ostatnio czułem sporo niedosytu FMkami. Grałem albo w jakieś miernoty, albo w... genialną... Elizabeth Bathory. Z nią miałem ten problem, że pomimo swej genialności troszkę przeszkadzała mi jej długość oraz brak Thiefowatości. Wszak inne realia, czasem nawet...

Jest to pierwsza FMka w mojej karierze, która dostanie ocenę "10" za swój skill. Pracowicie zbierała plusy, że ostatecznie nie mogę przyznać innej oceny pomimo, że sam koncept misji nie jest jakimś wielkim odkryciem.

W mało której misji mamy tak rozbudowaną fabułę. Tutaj zachwyca ona nie tylko poprzez nieoczekiwan...

Misja piękna. Wielka. Przygodowa, pełna ciekawych skryptów i bogata w klimat, który kilkukrotnie się zmienia. Niewątpliwie bardzo artystyczna i wypełniona nowatorskimi motywami. Sądzę, że mokry sen niejednego łachera się spełnił jak ujrzał metalowe drzewa, ogromne roboty lub dostał dużo broni do ręki, aby wypowiedzieć wojnę planszy.

To niewąt...

Augustine's Revenge is a very nice city mission with several distinct sections and generally a keen sense of location, atmosphere, and a ton of loot.

You begin within sight of your goal, the mansion of a noble lord whom you have been hired to rob and humiliate by another noble for his revenge, but getting there is no straightforward task. To ...

Uuuu... już to mam za sobą! Misja bardzo wymagająca intelektualnie i zręcznościowa. est wielka. jest świetna. Niesamowicie drobiazgowo zaprojektowana, pełna życia, z ciekawą fabułą i przebogata pod właściwie każdym względem.
Aż do przesytu...

Ale od początku.

Mamy tutaj do czynienia z Life of the Party na koksie, sterydach i amfetaminie r...
