Review:
Steal... uhm, "borrow" as many things on the list as you can and escape in time in this short and sweet game - The Very Organized Thief! It's best to escape before the owner arrived home, but don't worry if he is home... you can still sneakily escape, provided that you're not caught. However, be warned that if the owner's home and see the knocked over table or vase, he'll definitely be on the lookout for you and will be searching every room.
This game is pretty fun in the first few run-throughs, but since most of the items that you have to find are not exactly randomly placed (although the list of items to "borrow" will change in every playthrough), so you can easily memorised the locations of the items and collect them pretty quick in the 2nd or third run-through.
I like that the game has this security safe in the bedroom that contains a gold bar that your list will surely have. You will need to find the office key to enter the locked office and then search the desk drawers for the 4-number code to unlock the safe.
There are also plenty of cash wads hidden in shelves, cabinets or drawers, be sure to search for them all. :)
After successfully escaping, you will be shown the total value of the items that you've "borrowed" as well as the time you used to search the house.

| List of things to "borrow" :P This list changes with every playthrough even though the locations of the items do not change much. |
 |
| Items that are on the list will show the option to "take" the item instead of "pick up". So, you can easily identify the items that you need without needing to keep referring to the list. |
 |
| You must successfully escape to earn a score - it doesn't matter much if you didn't complete the list of items needed (but you will get a lower score due to not having some of the items on the list) |
Tips and hints:
1. Remember to search the desk drawers for extra wads of cash, the key and the code for the safe.
Downside:
- Some items placed in the lower drawers cannot be taken and you cannot control your character to squat in order to retrieve the item.
