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.

Crows Curse is a 3D open world game set in an large gang-ridden city. You take the place of someone who has been cursed by the "Crow", the reigning drug lord, after he made an 'example' of your brother who betrayed his trust. You have been marked with the talon tattoo around the eyes. Because of this you have become an outcast in this hostile world, you have become a public enemy and will be attacked by anyone who notices your mark. The only way to loose the curse is to gain the loyalty of the people and become a stronger, more powerful drug lord than the Crow.
You must now scavenge to live, find equipment and food to live off. Kill to survive and become the ultimate predator. The player is free to what he wants but will be guided my dialogue of the player speaking to himself. Days will pass and opportunities will arise, the player must take risks and make big decisions. Will you settle for acceptance or will you aim for something much greater?
