Andy Mccoy's blog : Video Games and Gaming Thief Deadly Shadows
The game and controls of Thief Deadly Shadows are very similar to other Xbox games, but the playstyle is very creative with movie-quality clips set in old European houses, towns, and villages. An M for mature (over 17 years old) was set for violence, graphic colors, and language to some degree I suspect, and the general nature of theft in general. “Cry Brethren for the Betrayer has come.
Your hands will be crippled and you will die as the wretched outcast in the bleak unwritten and you will know the face of the destroyer” a rediscovered text from the Propheticus that has been missing in Thief Deadly Shadows sattamatka for 132 years. To begin the game, enter the first mission briefing. Set your difficulty level to Easy, Normal, Hard, or Expert mode and check out your main objectives in the mission area. Check these goals frequently as they will change as you progress through your game. The gear area displays your arrows, tools, loot, quest items, and maps to keep you updated on your supplies and location.
You mostly need to keep an eye on the arrows that you have on hand, but checking in with your available tools and map locations will be helpful throughout the game. Your first mission is a training tutorial that will teach you extreme navigation and stealth skills. If you follow the blue footprints along the path you will get through this quest. Do not try to randomly attack someone on this mission, just wait for the tutorial to instruct you. Bringing as many water arrows as you can carry will help you a lot not only on this mission but also on the next.
The water arrows you use on the first quest will be replenished for the next. As long as you have around 25 arrows when you pick them up, you will have 25 arrows when you leave the first area, even if you use them all for exercise. At the top of that first mission, as soon as you enter the side room, the guard won’t even see you anymore. Once you are no longer threatened by a guard, you will get extra loot, some throw items. After practice, the game starts with Garrett (you the thief) walking through corridors, houses, and streets of the city with a pretty old London flair of dark, dingy, and a creepy kind of “Jack the Ripper” daytime vibe.
As you sneak around as the story progresses, as far as the player knows, Garrett is just a thief. Later in the game, Garrett steals to steal morphs in some sort of investigation. Your curiosity as a player peak while the Guardians inform you about the prophecy (Garrett already knows this information and through stories the Guardians and Garret let us flow into everything together as players). Guardians are a magical society obsessed with books, writings, pages, and glyphs. Central to the plot, these Guardians embark on some interesting journeys that begin in Garrett’s hometown of the South Quarter, a poor region of the Empire. Your second mission takes you to the southern district.
Firing a torch guard with a water arrow puts them on higher alert, but gives you the added bonus of more shade and more camouflage. Striking guards with your blackjack weapon will also help you complete this mission. Hit them from behind, then pick up the bodies and hide them in the shadows. Use a water arrow to wash away the bloodstains, this will keep the other NPCs (non-player characters) in check and not put them on alert. If you get back your killing arrows that miss a wooden object and get stuck in it, your arrow count will get higher. Since you are a thief, you need to improve your lock-breaking skills in your home. You start with two practice locks and can purchase more later in the game in certain shops.
If you are proficient in the lockpicking skill and memorize the locations of some of the easier locks, you will move forward much faster. Waiting and listening are two more of a thief’s greatest skills. Tips flashing on the loading screens, conversations between NPCs, and added hints that Garret didn’t say from NPCs will go a long way in helping you know things before Garrett admits that you as a gamer know them. Finding secret passages and rubber along the way is well worth your time, although you may not visit them very often. Where does a thief go to sell his ill-gotten gains? Why, of course, a “fence”!
