This is something of a first for mobile owners - it’s the only time you’d want a Thief with your phone. More precisely, a copy of Thief: Constantine’s Sword, the newest WAP game announced by Eidos. Based on the characters and locations of the hit PC game Thief: The Dark Project, Constantine’s Sword will be compatible with all WAP 1.1 enabled mobile phones.

Incorporating elements of puzzle solving and strategy, Constantine’s Sword sees you once again take on the role of Garret, a master thief, who is out to steal the legendary sword from which the game takes it’s name. There are a staggering 60 levels to play through in which you must make it through without detection. The mansion you’re trying to escape from however it littered with traps, guards and puzzles to halt and hinder your progress.

As Simon Protheroe, Eidos’ Technical Director says: "With our strong catalogue of well established titles we are ideally positioned to provide content for WAP services. We are very pleased with iomo’s interpretation of Thief and believe that it will further enhance the franchise."
