Players are tasked with stealing as much as they can without getting caught by the owner of the house. As players progress, the difficulty increases, but so do the rewards. While stealth games like this aren’t for everyone,Mini Thief’s multiplayer support may make it more appealing to a wider audience. Steam users can try the game for themselves completely free of charge, and as long as they snag it by January 24, it’s theirs to keep forever.
