As you probably guessed Way of the Thief II is a secqual to the game idea i posted yesterday, Way of the Thief. This game takes place almost immediatly after the first one. The player has just escaped from the barons lair thing and has found out upon arrival of The City that The Baron has claimed he killed you and dragged your name through the mud. With your reputation ruined and your horde of gold plundered, you set of on quest for revenge to kill the only man to ever outwit you, The Baron.

The player must now spend his time scouting out the city, doing small quests and assassinations to make enough money to live off and buy equipment. You use you time wisely discover the city's secret passes and tunnels. Make friends with people who will give you opportunities and kill people who hinder you. You are still mainly a thief and don't do well in head-on combat. Stick to the shadows and plot your kills from the darkness. Work your way up in society under a new name, get into the Barons keep, kill him, and escape.
