    Though it won't test hardended point-and-click fans, Tiny Thief is a witty puzzle adventure packed with personality and character.

    There are five tutorials, which barely count as levels, and another 25 stages across five worlds. I was shocked by how well every level distinguished itself, even within worlds. Every new screen was like beginning a newly reset game of Mouse Trap, but with setup exorcised in favor of pure Goldbergian fun.

    If you're a fan of adventure games, this is a no-brainer -- just don't be surprised if you spend an entire afternoon tearing through it, longing for more.

    Tiny Thief is a cute, challenging, and inventive offering that sucks you in from the get-go with it's ample charm. It has its tough moments, but they're worth muscling through.

    With beautiful cartoony graphics this game is a must-have for mobiles and tablets. It has an original concept, is really funny and it’s only a few euros. All the levels are different, a fantastic achievement by developer Rovio.

    Tiny Thief isn't particularly difficult, but its bite-sized challenges are a perfect fit for a quick session on the move and provide just enough mental exercise to blow the cobwebs away on the journey to work.

    Tiny Thief is a charming reduction of the point-and-click adventure, though its charm and polish cover over some pretty basic trial-and-error gameplay.

    적절한 난이도의 재미있는 게임.
    퍼즐을 풀어가는 재미와 아기자기한 소품을 모으는 재미가 잘 어우러졌다.
    클릭으로 모든 조작이 이루어지다보니 조작감이 좋지 않은게 가장 큰 흠이다.    적절한 난이도의 재미있는 게임.

Solve the problems, collect the stars and suck out all the little details that will make you smile.
    Wonderful art and animations so the art director should have a big thumb up.

Nice graphics, but low animation frame rate, and the scenes are quite static, feels and plays ok, but the game itself might be perhaps a bit too simple for some gamers; touch an object and see what happens. There's no music in-game, and the sound effects are quite simple. End of level loops are like four seconds long. Cannot really recommend this.… Expand
