Thief of Thieves is an action-adventure game for PC Windows and XONE, released in an episodic form. It was developed by Finnish studio Rival Games, known for the 2014 game The Detail.
As the title suggests, the game is based on the comic Thief of Thieves, written by Robert Kirkman, mostly known for The Walking Dead series. Thief of Thieves tell the story of Conrad Coulson, a legendary thief working under the nickname Redmond. One day, he changes his career path and starts to steal from other thieves.
You play as Celia, a young woman, who learns the art of theft from Redmond. During the first season, consisting of four episodes, she attempts to commit a series of increasingly difficult heists.
Thief of Thieves is an action-adventure game with stealth elements for PC Windows and XONE. Each heist has to be carefully planned out first, and then carried out as precisely as possible.
You begin most missions by doing a reconnaissance in disguise, e.g. as a courier to gather useful information and prepare for the robbery. During the heist, the stealth aspect becomes most prominent. You have to quietly move towards your target, avoid patrols, and neutralize security systems.
Celia is no good at close-quarters combat and cannot win against guards, so you have to avoid detection at all costs. The gameplay also features logic puzzles and various minigames, involving e.g. lockpicking.
The game features fully 3D visuals, but they successfully imitate the style of the comic the production is based on.

Game Ratings for Thief of Thieves: Season One Video Game.
GamingTrend: 65 / 100 by Austin Fern
Thief of Thieves is an interesting but unpolished stealth game that offers a great cast of characters but has little else going for it. The voice acting and writing had me invested in these characters and I enjoyed my journey with them; I just wish it had less of the stealth gameplay which isn't exactly great since this is a stealth game. In the end, it just really made me want to play Dishonored again.

Instead of pulling off a perfect heist, Thief of Thieves: Season One was tackled at the door by a 6ft tall cockroach wearing a security guard uniform. It may looks nice, but no single element of gameplay works properly.
NintendoWorldReport: 3.5 / 10 by Matthew Zawodniak
Thief of Thieves would be a boring game in the best of conditions, but the Switch version only serves to make a bad game worse. It's incredibly short, clocking in at less than five hours, but I still found myself struggling to care to keep going long before I reached the end. From the bland, underdeveloped gameplay to the buggy port, Thief of Thieves spent so much time focusing on the comic book's style that it didn't bother including any actual substance.
