Narrative Review: Thief

2012 Gold Prize Winner,  GDC Game Narrative Review Competition
GDC Vault narrative review website
(From the GDC Website)
"Every year, leading game design programs at universities across the country integrate the GDC's Game Narrative Review competition into their academic curricula. Each participating student conducts a detailed structured analysis of the narrative elements of a game title of their choice. The resulting papers are submitted to the GDC writing board for review, and the submitters with the most promising entries are then invited to create a poster as a visual synopsis of their review. Successful poster submissions are declared winners and exhibited at the GDC. "
I entered this contest and got to exhibit my review of Thief: The Dark Project at GDC Austin 2012.

Narratives are a tricky thing in games, and it's especially encouraging when you see those in the industry making strides toward games as storytelling.  Thief was just one in a long list.
