Watch Out for Fireballs! is a game club podcast, focused on retro and non-current games. Every week, we play a game in its entirety, then discuss its merits and flaws at length. Most episodes begin with a short sketch, and we're pretty liberal about keeping tangents in. But it ultimately comes down to: Why do we like (or dislike?) this game.

Episode 115: Thief: Deadly Shadows
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross are the hands that rock Thief: Deadly Shadows's cradle.
Thief: Deadly Shadows won our Fall 2015 Stealth Game poll, and we're glad it did. Not just because it gave us an excuse to talk about the Shalebridge Cradle for 30 minutes... but because it's a beloved series, and a kind of stealth game we haven't covered before. Garret's brand of first-person stealth led to games like Dishonored, which speaks to this series' credit... Even if Deadly Shadows overstays its welcome by about 5 hours.
