Each stage after the training levels has three items to steal or find that grant you a star apiece. It might be a barrel to hide in for when the guards come your way, or a rope to untie, or a pie to bake, or any number of possibilities. Tap anywhere onscreen to move, and if you're close enough, certain objects will pop up with an icon above them you can tap to interact. Each chapter comes with its own story, revealed in comic book scenes between levels, and even level represents a puzzle with its own unique objectives to complete. As the title suggests, you are a plucky little thief who, along with your sassy ferret sidekick, must steal, trick, and slink your way through six different chapters of adventures.
Why? Because not only is it one of the most beautifully animated and adorable games to come down the river in a long time, but more importantly, it's fun, clever, and imaginative to boot.
