Another horror mission is yet another artefact seeking but this time in abandoned mansion, filled with Amnesia-style monsters.

The mission is very dark, and you should often use your lantern, one of the few inventory objects you have. The main difficulty therefore is to keep the balance between the visibility of locations to you and - at the...

One of two One Million Contest horror missions. The basic premise of Perdurance is simple: you go to the seemingly empty Mechanists' ghost ship to steal some precious artefact. But, as usual in horror missions, getting inside is much easier than getting outside, and the ship is clearly not abandoned.

The main strength of Perdurance is thick...

Garrett has got a job offer to rob yet another noble, Sir Vasco, but now in a city of Bohn. So begins our adventure. We are to wander in sewers, climb the heights inside and outside of aforementioned noble's posh mansion, read quite funny "tongue-in-cheek" texts, and to have fun from pure ghosting (optional) and solving one particular and simple...

Keywords: compact, daylight, sewers, pretty, FUN.

I just love the premise of TTLG's One Million Units contest, forcing us to appreciate how much can be packed into smaller levels if it's done right. This specific format is both a restriction and opportunity - mapmakers can spend more time on fleshing out the layout, the loot and the story. Ci...

After successful small robbing, Garrett was unexpectedly kidnapped by other thieves, but happily managed to escape and now he is in the middle of mysterious rainy forest filled with dangers and... with possibilities (especially, in version 1.2 which included all needed scripts). So begins his another journey.

It may be my subjective issue, bu...

Before his foray into the Angelwatch tower, Garrett recieves information about new type of robots Mechanists designing in their workshop in Eastport. So he should pay a visit to the workshop and in addition to it - "inspect the property" of local inhabitants. Some of them, albeit, have their own agenda in which Garrett plays important role...

It's time for me to express my own thoughts about some of One Million Units missions, and I'll begin with this one. Alcazar is another excellent example of clever using of limited space: I spent almost 2 hours and didn't gather all the loot scattered on the layout. Practically you will have several (sometimes well-hidden) ways to almost every lo...

Will the rain ever stop? Perhaps, but for now, all we have is lamp oil shortage, inefficient drainage system and curfews!

This is the world of Raid on Washout Central. The City is on a brink of major crisis and people are scared - Baron is losing the war, City Watch doubled patrols and flood is imminent... Lots of turmoil, but also a grand o...

What we've got here is, essentially, one of the most legendary FMs ever conceived. Originally released in late 2001, read: infancy of Thief modding, it surely influenced whole community, raising the bar for all future mapmakers - we're talking of Inverted Manse, Smuggler's Request or Calendra's Cistern kind of impact. For this reason alone it's ...

The Sealed Quarter was one of my favorite locations in The Dark Project, so naturally I'm always on the lookout for missions that explore that aspect of Thief's setting to add to my queue. Unfortunately there's not as many as I'd like, since most of the well-known undead missions favor other kinds of locations. Lost Among the Forsaken is a notab...

Replayed this and was impressed all over again, and am still missing plenty of loot. It's a sign of a truly great mission when you replay it, and not only discover new areas and routes (some of which may have not been intentional) but are still left with the feeling there's much you still haven't seen. What sets this above the earlier Disorienta...

The Cinder Notes is a very aesthetically attractive FM with a large number of (comparatively) high quality assets (which I think are ripped from Thief 3, though the documentation was a little difficult to understand on that front) and some absolutely gorgeous lighting. The level is compact and makes good use of verticality and levels; more than ...

No doubt that a lot of effort went to create this campaign and the amount of content is amazing, but as a whole it's being seriously held back by both Thief 3 shortcomings and some design decisions too.
The OM modifications are quite creative, but from the beginning, gameplay relies on running, jumping and mantling, which is constantly glitchin...

I'm taking Nicked's word for it that this is a <1,000,000 units, because it sure as hell doesn't feel like it. This mission is massive, and utterly fantastic. It sees you go from nothing to so many items scrolling your inventory becomes more of a pain, it has Garrett doing magic, Garrett doing mad science, Garrett doing horticulture, Garrett wie...

Sabotage in Eastport is supposed (as far as I can tell) to slot in inbetween Trail of Blood and Life of the Party in the official Thief 2 campaign, and in my opinion does so pretty smoothly- its plot (it details Garrett's attempts to prevent the installation of a much stronger kind of builder's child in Angelwatch before he can get there) never ...

A Sinister Night is an attempt at replicating exploration horror gameplay in Thief 2. It removes all of Garrett's weapons and items, save for a "lantern", which I was delighted to see after playing other FMs that have used the concept to help surmount the problem of darkness hindering the player as much as helping them.

Tragically, this lante...
