Twisted Voxel: 6 / 10 by Ali Haider

Warren Spector’s Thick as Thieves delivers a bite-sized, budget-friendly homage to classic immersive sims that shines brightest in co-op. However, a lean content offering, sterile solo play, and an underwhelming text-heavy narrative keep this otherwise mechanically sound, Edwardian-era heist from pulling off the ultimate crime.

PCMag Middle East: 3.5 / 5 by Vincent Peter

Thick as Thieves is a small but stylish stealth experience that punches above its weight thanks to excellent level design, immersive sim sensibilities, and a fantastic atmosphere. It’s polished, clever, and extremely fun – especially with a friend in co-op.
