What stops you from rating Calendra's Cistern as if you were reviewing it with 2000 standards in your mind (and not as a modern player)?

You may also want to check out Intertheft by Nomadman, it 's another very solid take on Thieves' Guild, but a bit more similar to the original in terms of setting.

Playing "The Black Parade" has been an absolute delight.

The intricacy and brilliance of the level design within this Thief campaign are nothing short of extraordinary. Each environment, from the long-forgotten mortuaries to the labyrinthine mansions, embodies a level of intricacy that borders on the sublime.

Pros:
- The scale of the mission is very large and while there is some backtracking involved, it is not hard to distinguish one area from another, so you are unlikely to get lost for longer than a few minutes.
- Beautiful design and architecture. Attention to details and colours is particularly impressive.
- Good writing. The readables are ne...

It's just a nice little demo of someone playing around with DromED. As the author wrote in the readme, no need to take it too seriously.

First of all, congratulations to the author for releasing his first mission. Right from the very beginning, Condemned Catalogue captivates you with excellent old school design, thick with an atmosphere of mystery and constriction. As a warm-up, we start in a narrow alley and explore a few accessible buildings before we enter the main area of the...

A Noble Death, one of the very earliest missions for Thief, may show its age, but it still offers an enjoyable experience. Those who loved Lord Bafford's Manor will appreciate the nostalgic design and an interesting story. A lovely detail worth mentioning is Lady Gilder's small garden. Despite some dated aspects, Noble Death captures the essence...

Another masterpiece from Nicked. If you are up for a classic Dark Project experience, then you should definitely play The Scholar's Hand. The mission is great in terms of gameplay, as it allows freedom of exploration, provides the player with a few completely new and exciting tools of trade, and isn't frustratingly difficult or challenging. A fe...

DarkLoader is outdated and it is incompatible with most modern fan missions. Please use AngelLoader or FMSel. Do you have Thief1Fix installed?

Another miniature FM by Bulgarian Taffer. Here you have to rob Bafford's town house. There is also an adjacent city section, which is a welcome addition.

Aemanyl    April 2, 2023, 8:45 p.m.

A tiny Hammerite fan mission. It's perfect if you have about 15-20 minutes to spare. I particularly liked the Old Quarter section, I did find it quite atmospheric and there was also one fun easter egg. However, I wish the intro was in a better quality and if I were the author I would also add more loot and improve the lighting in some places. Th...

I remember that when I played this level the assassination objective was actually one of the positive highlights for me. While Garrett is not necessarily a murderer, in Circle of Strain 2 the killing can be done very stealthily without alerting any guards, so it is not too removed from the original gameplay.

message   Fun little Dark Engine creation
topic about   Umbelina (2016)   T2 FM
Aemanyl    March 28, 2023, 3:53 p.m.

Umbelina is a relatively enjoyable little creation (it does not resemble a typical fan mission) taking place in a large apartment where you need to solve a few simple puzzles. If you don't mind the modern setting and an unusual story, the level will keep you entertained for about 20-25 minutes. I particularly appreciated custom music and objects.

In overall, very well made mission, but it was very hard to complete all objectives, hence the lower rating.

What, in your opinion, was the most challenging objective?
