hey, I have been following this forum for a very long time. It is great to see that forum like this still exist in classical style in opposition to shitty like facebook groups etc.
When I played Thief for the first time I was just a small child, now I am an adult (wow! mild shock that time pass). I don't believe that I would experience anything similar to Thief atmosphere in other game. I have tried almost all of "spirtual successors" of the Thief, but none of them was even close to this masonical and mysterious stuff created by TLGs.
Deadly Shadows was very good, but is not the same. It lost a part of soul comparing to the dark project nad metal age, but still it earns it place in the series, making it a trilogy.
We had T4ief, but it was something completely different, it wasn't even 4th part it was total reboot.
Many other classic games are also getting "new parts" (e.g. Disciples, another dark theme game, it was massacred totally), but they are like halloween pumpkins, maybe nice looking at the first glance, but when you look inside them, you see that there is not much pumpkin pulp inside anymore, let alone a seeds.
Sorry for a quite long offtop, maybe someone will get my point, why we won't see a great successor of Thief and it would be better if nobody would ever touch it, leave it as it is.
So in order to preserve the memory of the game, I wanted to add something from myself. There are already lot of mods, fanmissions, etc so I added something different to the community and created a Quiz for real fans of Thief. Enjoy yourself :) and I am open for suggestions.
It is available on google play only:

Life would be perfect if it could be possible :D but what are your thoughts so far?

Whatever name I pick, it keeps telling me someone else is using it when I finish a round, even though I just picked out a unique one.

it reminds me of the thief version of who wants to be a millionaire
only thing i would recommend is a modes for each class to you can focus on lets say pagan history in game/hammers/mechs/keepers, for the hardcore fans the most obscure things in thief 1/g/2/3 games
also a mode for fan missions where you pick a path either to the master builder=light path, or the woodsie lord=dark path, and have a story mode type of thing with random bars, and random shops you loot for say something used to help you on journey, meet npc for side quests the ultimate thief rpg type mini adventure with quiz's ,maybe a house you can add stuff to as you complete the storyline
sorry i was rabbling again once again captain davidson is to blame and his rare spice

Good idea! I will try to add it! It would be something like hardmode.

I was thinking about a fan mission section, but that what you suggest is beyond quiz concept :D The separated game would need to be done probably to make something like this. But I will think about it. I would love to make something similar to Thief experience or atmosphere, but I want to avoid to destroy or put a stain on legacy of series with too much odd ideas

It's me again, this guy with his Thief Quiz! It's hard to believe that our Garrett is 25 years old. I tried to finish big update on time for the anniversary, but as you can see I am late.. better late than later. I wonder if you had a time to think about Thief Quiz, when surprisingly Black Parade went on the loose ^^ And Yes! BP will be in Thief Quiz soon!

http://madcrapb.xlx.pl/thief-quiz-28.pngWhat is new in Thief Quiz 2.8?
- T2X Shadows of the Metal Age Mode (if you haven't played don't use it)
- Hard Mode improvements:
Before there was position randomization for the answer buttons. This mechanics now is a part of Hard Mode. In normal mode answer buttons are on fixed position.
- More and more questions
- You can disable hint and manipulate time between questions
- Because the question database bloat a bit, you have download them manually in Question Base window. No longer auto update.
Preparations for WebGL are closer then ever before! If everything will go fine, this Christmas all the Thief fans around a world will be able to play Quiz!
