6/10, a tad overrated.

The biggest strengths of this mission come from its aesthetics and puzzle design. However, the gameplay suffers from the progression being infuriatingly linear, as well as from ...

This was one that I went back to 2 or 3 times before I finished it. I kept hitting dead ends - not literally but I spent a lot of time looking for a way to progress.

Ultimately, I worked out where to go and enjoyed the mission.

Make sure to play this one!

PaulHumph Aug. 17, 2026, 6:13 p.m.

I remember little about this mission but I gave it a good score as I must have enjoyed it at the time.

I read most of the reviews on here and I'm baffled by some of the missions that reviewers enjoy* (and sometimes wax lyrical over). I try them and give up after a few minutes . Some I've persevered with and still thought I'd wasted several hours of my life.

As most things in life, it's all subjective.

*That includes some reviewers whose recommendations are mostly to my liking.

Where can I download this? There are three links on Thief Guild: Taffers Paradise; The BoycoT & Dark Fate.

My browser won't open the first link, even though it's allowed. I can't see it on The BoycoT (I've searched by name & author - there is another mission by Qolelis). I can only see a link to the Russian version on Dark Fate.

Thanks.

T2 FM

PaulHumph Aug. 11, 2026, 8:40 p.m.

The Sunken Library is populated mainly by craymen (and maybe the odd craywoman - I find it hard to tell the difference) and undead.

There are other creatures, too, but no living humans that I came across. Given the mission title, you should be able to guess where most of the action takes place.

I found it to be a well-designed mission wit...

A small mission with a lot to find
topic about Recipe for Turmoil (2021)

TG FM

PaulHumph March 23, 2026, 9:40 p.m.

An entrant in the million unit contest but there's a lot packed into those units.
It's a dark, rainy mission slightly in the style of skacky, with spiral stone steps and a bit of verticality.
The objectives were reasonably easy to complete - finding the total loot is more difficult. I found all but 40, which is a bit annoying in such a small ...

Explore the warehouse
topic about My Favorite Year (2020)

T2 FM

PaulHumph March 21, 2026, 12:32 p.m.

This is a great mission for those who like exploring lots (and lots) of rooms.

Outside there's nothing much to see apart from guards and containers. The architecture is very basic until you are inside the warehouse where most of the action happens. You'll find that the majority of the doors open and there's something to find within. In so...

The version is 1.27d. I've not upgraded to 1.28 yet as I'm still playing a lot of the older missions.

I played on Expert.

The random patrols of the guards had me fooled. I say random, perhaps they just have a more complex path that I didn't have the patience to observe.

All buttons worked and keys etc were where they should be (so no problem finishing the mission). Secrets were reasonably...

PaulHumph March 18, 2026, 8:32 p.m.

Part of a contest, (the winner, no less!), this is a finessed version of an earlier mission. Very simple architecture (basically a tower hotel with one room per floor) but everything works, the room textures are good and the readables help.

I don't have a lot to add to other reviewers but I've seen mention of difficulty in finding buttons to...

PaulHumph March 15, 2026, 6:01 p.m.

Thanks for recommending this - struggled to reach the loot limit but got there eventually by scouring the rooms. Those switches are quite small too!

Still, that said I enjoyed the mission.

So much variety in such a small space

I believe The Drymian Codex has managed to do a great job in lifting this simple Hammerite complex up. This is mostly seen in the surrounding areas: an interestingly complex sew...

PaulHumph March 2, 2026, 9:44 a.m.

I finished this one yesterday. Totally agree with the small switches - I did a room by room search after an initial sweep found nothing.

The key that I struggled to find was the early in the mission one that had been dropped in the sewers. Despite swimming in every available part several times, I had to watch Fen's video on YT. Apart from that, with a struggle, I found the rest.

A great mission. Some of the readables were a touch on the verbose side but of course well written.

I didn't see Fen's video on this one. I always enjoy his walkthroughs.

I'm still on ND1.27.

I didn't realise the spooky pest had supposed to move - it just stood at the end of the corridor. I was expecting it to chase me at some point but ... nothing.

Having played Vagabond, I had a go at its prequel "Nostalgia".

It's a non-Garrett mission, Darren being the main character (as in Vagabond).

There's not a lot of direction in what you are supposed to be doing at first. While searching for possible entrances, I happened upon a key and since I'd only come across one locked door and I had no...

It starts with the protagonist, Darren, finding himself homeless. (I must admit all the Darrens that I have ever met haven't been prone to assassination - or maybe they did but were very good at it). Darren starts without any weapons o...

Another mission from the Thief Anniversary Contest, Ashes and Dust is quite short (it would have been even shorter if I hadn't missed a relatively easy to spot switch) but everything in it is relevant and very well done.
I played on Normal as the two higher difficulties restricted the amount of AIs that I could clobber and I thought the archite...
