"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 …"

"With updates, Thick as Thieves has the potential to deliver a more exciting heist simulator, but it won’t do that with just two characters and two maps to choose from. For now, all it provides is mindless repetition and half-baked …"

"While Thick as Thieves is a short game lacking in many basic features like rebindable controls, it&s;s an easy game to recommend thanks to its compelling gameplay loop, emphasis on replayability, and a co-op mode."

"Thick as Thieves lays the foundation for an excellent stealth-based Immersive Sim, but locks so much of what could&s;ve been built on it behind draconian online multiplayer design."
