Thief: The Dark Project converges with Kafka, Gogol and Tamagotichis in this immersive sim with a giant personalityPlanning is half the fun in immersive sims. Titles such as Thief and Dishonored drop players into clockwork worlds where there are emails or letters to be read, vents to wriggle through, and desperate situations to overcome with smarts and social engineering as much as sheer violence.You could argue that all that’s been missing from the genre until now is a colossal policeman whose lanky body rises hundreds of feet into the sky, and who can look down at you and see absolutely everything you’re doing.
