When it comes to gameplay, Thief Simulator is remarkably detailed and nuanced. Luckily, the story is mostly window dressing in a game that is much more concerned with accurately recreating what it's like to be a thief prowling the streets of unsuspecting neighborhoods.

Then Vinny tells you to steal something like $30 and an old CRT television to prove The Thief's competency and the story, what little there is, begins to unravel from there. The Thief begins his journey standing in someone's backyard, getting a call on his cell phone from a guy named Vinny who informs him he has been sprung from prison by a local crime gang that wants him to start, you guessed it, thieving for them. Thief Simulator follows the story of the protagonist who is aptly called The Thief. Developer Noble Muffins has created a sandbox title that is, without a shadow of a doubt, about simulating the life of a thief - at least, a thief in an extremely cheesy crime film written by someone who only half paid attention to the Guy Ritchie film they were watching while working on the script. Thief Simulator is refreshingly honest with itself.
