Thick As Thieves is an immersive stealth-action multiplayer game that invites players to navigate a 1910s metropolis where every shadow conceals new challenges, from rival thieves and watchful guards, to a richly detailed city that changes with each heist.

Thick of Thieves is a brand new stealth game with elements of immersive sim, and even involves Warren Spector in development.

There's not a lot to it, but it’s hard to find much fault with these stealthy co-op heists.

Thick as Thieves is a solid stealth steal-em-up that will probably be elevated by finding a few sticky-fingered friends to play with.

I remember seeing a preview of Thick as Thieves when it was a PvPvE-focused game. It feels like the shift to single player/co-op stripped away some intangible but important elements. What remains is a fun but limited stealth action game, with lots of potential and room to grow but disappointingly stingy at launch. There’s an old joke about how a restaurant’s food sucked, and also, there wasn’t enough of it. Thick as Thieves is a reasonably-priced $5 game with a solid foundation, but needs more playable characters, maps, depth, and encouragement for creativity. I look forward to checking in fro...

Thick as Thieves lays the foundation for an excellent stealth-based Immersive Sim, but locks so much of what could’ve been built on it behind draconian online multiplayer design.

Thick As Thieves needs a little more time in the oven, but it could become something great in the future

May 28, 2026

Thick as Thieves has the bones of a great stealth experience with rewarding exploration, satisfying loot management, and a world that strongly evokes Looking Glass Studios’ legacy. However, leftover extraction-game design, forced contract progression, limited combat options, and locked characters hold it back from fully stepping out of the shadows.

Thick As Thieves feels like a heavily scaled back version of what we were hoping for, but for $5, your expectations may be met.

Warren Spector’s Thick as Thieves delivers a bite-sized, budget-friendly homage to classic immersive sims that shines brightest in co-op.

May 24, 2026

Warren Spector is a legend in the stealth and immersive sim genre, having given us classics like System Shock, Thief: Deadly Shadows, and one of my all-time favourite games, Deus Ex. So when Thick As Thieves was announced as a PvPvE immersive stealth experience, it immediately had my attention. Then, just weeks before launch, it pivoted into a cooperative PvE stealth game instead. Even with that sudden shift, I stayed cautiously optimistic that it would still turn out great. Unfortunately, it...
