Thief 2: The Metal Age is a first-person shooter where stealth is key, where being ignorant about your enemies and surroundings got you killed. Thief II surpassed the original with new abilities such as shooting buttons using arrows, invisibility, and setting and disarming traps. Practically anything you could do as a thief in a pen and paper RPG you could probably do in Thief II. Complimenting the game were its proto-Venetian setting where magic and technology co-exist and where dark, untamed forces threatened the fabric of reality. All this combined to make Thief II one of the best games of all time.
