'''''Thief''''' is a three-game series of first-person [[Stealth Based Game|sneak-em-ups]] starring an [[Anti-Hero]] named [[Deadpan Snarker|Garrett]] as he goes about [[Phantom Thief|stealing stuff]] in an ancient, [[City Noir|noirish]] and unnamed<ref>Only known as "The City"</ref> [[Medieval European Fantasy|medieval-esque]]/[[Steampunk]] city. Each game consists of a series of missions that begin with little or no connection to each other but eventually become part of an over-arching plot-line concerning Garrett saving the world from a great evil.
The series is especially notable for the [[Wide Open Sandbox|relatively free exploration allowed within the boundaries of each scenario]] and the many ways the player can approach the given objectives. [[Self-Imposed Challenge|Self Imposed Challenges]], such as [[Speed Run|completing objectives in as short time as possible]] or [[Stealth Run|completely avoiding detection]] [[Pacifist Run|and confrontation]], are popular among the more devoted fans. The games are loved for the convincing and engrossing atmosphere they create by taking usually Victorian [[Steampunk]] and giving it a dash of medieval flavor, making for a truly unique and interesting setting. The ''Thief'' series has a strong following and many elaborate fan-made scenarios have been created, some arguably surpassing the quality of the original ones.
