About Data Thief

Data Thief is a VR puzzle game where the player's goal is to solve light puzzles by redirecting, splitting, and merging colored beams of light in order to reach and obtain a piece of data. The player is only able to view one primary color at a time, alongside secondary colors composed of that primary color. While the spectrum limitation does hinder the player's ability to see the full picture, it allows them to move without fear of coming in contact with the dangerous beams of concentrated light.

"Data Thief" is a really badly made low poly/neon/minimalist VR exclusive puzzle game, where the developer once more fails to understand the basic axiom of game development... if the only cool thing about your game is VR support, then your game is not cool. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come across as "artistic", but it doesn't, it comes across as "really lazy" and looks bad as a result of their lack of interest in doing their job properly. Developers must try to understand that gaming is a visual medium, and gamers spend a lot of money on high end gaming rigs for a reason. And that reason is not so they can look at lazy, phoned-in half efforts like this. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and t…

Игра Data Thief — это настоящий подарок для любителей стелса и головоломок, завернутый в стильную киберпанк-обертку. С первых минут погружаешься в атмосферу мрачного мегаполиса, где каждый взлом системы — это настоящее искусство. Механики кражи данных выполнены на высочайшем уровне: нужно не просто пробраться мимо охраны, но и просчитать свои действия, использовать окружение и гаджеты на полную катушку. Уровни продуманы до мелочей, а сложность постепенно нарастает, заставляя по-настоящему напрячь извилины. При этом игра не душит тебя излишними подсказками, давая почувствовать себя настоящим мастером своего дела. Визуальный стиль и саундтрек идеально дополняют атмосферу, создавая эффект полного погружения. Если вы цените продуманный геймплей, напряженную атмосферу и возможность почувствовать себя невидимым хакером, то Data Thief — это то, что вам нужно.
