Don't know where to Start. One of the first 3D stealth games, amazing story, played it a million times... A core memory for me. I first played it on a demo CD (pretty common for it's time) and fell in love. I played the demo over and over until I finally got the full version. The second mission really freaked me out as a child with the friggin scary zombies.
If you're simply looking for the first Thief game, it's on GOG under the title Thief Gold. I'm assuming this entry is specifically for the original Thief: The Dark Project, without the changes Thief Gold made. 'Vanilla' Thief had 300+ votes on the old Wishlist. There's a mod called GoldToDark that converts a Thief Gold installation to revert the changes back to TDP.
würde mich sehr freuen darüber wenn's gog auch erhalten würde. ich liebe solche Spiele sehr ist ein gut gelungenes game richtig mysterisch action ein düsteres cooles game finde ich. 😌

Secret of Mana
Secret of ManaInitially released in Japan in 1993, Secret of Mana took the world by storm with its innovative real-time battle system and gorgeously rendered world. It continues to stand out among other action RPGs for its seamless gameplay that anyone from beginner to veteran can enjoy. One of the most memorable elements of the Mana series is the Ring Command menu system. With the single press of a button, a ring-shaped menu appears on the screen, where players can use items, change weapons, and do a variety of other actions without needing to switch screens. This Ring Command menu system for which the Mana series is so well known was first introduced in Secret of Mana and has since appeared in most games in the series. Play as Randi and his two companions, Primm and Popoi, as they adventure all around the world. At the center of our epic story is the mystical power of Mana. Battle the empire in its quest for control of Mana. Befriend the eight elementals who wield the forces of nature itself. Numerous encounters await at every turn.
