Tricky Thief

Tricky Thief cover

Tricky Thief is a short puzzle game about using an unusual long arm to reach a theft target. The arm can bend in different directions, so each challenge is about finding a smart angle, moving around obstacles, and reaching the target without overcomplicating the route.

What You Do in Tricky Thief

The main idea is simple: stretch the bendy arm toward the object you need to steal. The puzzle comes from the path. Instead of moving straight ahead every time, you look for a route from another side, curve around what blocks you, and use the arm's shape to make the theft work.

That makes Tricky Thief feel more like a quick brain teaser than a long adventure. Each moment is built around a compact problem: where should the arm go, which obstacle matters, and what direction gives you the cleanest reach?

How to Think Through Each Puzzle

  • Look at the target before moving the arm so you know the final direction.
  • Use the arm's bends to approach from the side that avoids the biggest obstacle.
  • Try a cleaner route instead of forcing a direct line through blocked space.
  • Keep the puzzle goal in mind: reach the target, not every object on the screen.

If you enjoy compact puzzle logic, Boy Escape from School: Runaway has another escape-style challenge, while Draw path to home focuses on planning a route. For another quick clever puzzle, Save the Doggy is also available on Funavio.
