About This Game



The stealth genre gets turned on its head in The Marvellous Miss Take – the only heist adventure that invites you to steal with style!

Break into 25 unique art galleries as three different thieves in search of the ultimate score, evading guards and using gadgets to get away with your priceless haul. Unlike other stealth games though, there’s no time for waiting in the shadows until the right moment! Wandering guards decide their patrol routes on the fly, security cameras keep watch over everything and even innocent gallery goers just visiting to admire the art might raise the alarm if they see something suspicious. Only quick wits and even quicker reflexes can help you grab the loot and escape unseen – there’s no option for violence and the clock is ticking!

Game features

  • Organised Chaos – More than your typical stealth game, The Marvellous Miss Take is a fluid, high-speed game of cat and mouse! Random guard patterns require players to think on their feet rather than hiding in the shadows, and one false move means escape can be snatched away from you in seconds.
  • Wits, Not Fists – Forget violence, takedowns or picking off guards one by one… distraction's the key to success here! Each stage stays tense from the first step to the last, so put your gadgets to good use to keep out of trouble and pilfer everything you can before someone spots you!
  • The Bigger Picture – Sneak into the 25 multi-floored galleries as one of three different characters, each of which has their own unique skills and goals. Can you escape safely with the maximum amount of loot and grab yourself a perfect ranking?
  • Artfully Accessible – Streamlined, intuitive mouse controls let you explore the colourful world of The Marvellous Miss Take with ease, making the exciting puzzle-cum-stealth action accessible to players of all ages and skills.

[b]Note: video review embedded below.[/b] The Marvellous Miss Take is such a phenomenal stealth game that it seems to have snuck by just about everyone. Terrible puns aside, Miss Take is likely one the most tragically passed by game of 2014, and one of its absolute bests. An isometric stealth game starring a feisty redhead who’s inherited art has been stolen away, it better understands the fundamentals of what make a brilliant stealth game than nearly anything I’ve ever played. It builds itself upon basic but rock solid mechanics - hiding, running, and pilfering anything that isn’t nailed down - and then applies them to ingenious level designs to stretch them to their absolute limits. Miss Take is immediately accessible without ever feeling dumb, giving you tools you understand but finding endless ways to constantly force you to rethink how you can apply them to a situation. There was never a moment in Miss Take where I was stagnant. There was always some guard I needed to av...

This is a cute stealth game where you steal artwork (which was in turn stolen from your family) from under the nose of several wandering guards. You need to avoid their line of sight and avoid making loud footsteps to get past them. Miss Take meets two friends and you can play as either of them as well. Pros: Lots of fun, its a bit Portal-like but with easier puzzles. The music is this hip jazzy sound that builds a fun atmosphere. The puzzles can be challenging, but not too challenging. There's some map re-use, but always with a twist so it doesn't feel like you're re-playing the same map. Super cute graphics! Gadgets are fun, especially the teleporter. Everything is subtitled and all sounds like footsteps have visual representations so this game should be deaf player friendly. Cons: The guards move randomly, so sometimes you'll enter a map and not have much of a chance to win because of how it starts off because their starting pattern is too tough to break through. >.< I often ...

[b] W4MM - Looking to play! Want to chase me around an art gallery with dogs and alarms? (London) [/b] You: [list] [*]A bunch of chunky goons; 6ft+ only [*]Must be radiating a translucent cone from your eyes to indicate your field of vision [*]Men in uniform with random patrol paths [/list] Me: [list] [*]A lithe, classy redhead in a hat (you'll know me when I drop the hat and run when you spot me) [*]Into toys :) and I will bring them (glue, cat noise makers, teleporters; that's how I like it) [*]The stealthiest fun you will ever have! [/list] ;) Catch me while you can, boys! If you're into pure stealth experiences The Marvellous Miss Take certainly knows how to please. I myself am often found crouched in the shadows, stuffing things into my pockets, being the creep that I am. And, as such, I can tell you what makes a great stealth game. An adequate stealth game gives you steady feedback on how visible you are at any given time and makes it clear how alert your opponents ...

This is a wonderful game, or could be, if the difficulty didn't spike after the second mission and just keep on spiking like an all-star women's volleyball team. I know saying 'this is too hard' invites all sorts of comments questioning one's intelligence, ability and general ability to not derp the place up. I've considered all these hypotheses already. I know I further invite obloquy by swimming upstream and giving a thumbs-down to a very well reviewed game. No, the game is just too damn hard to be fun. The game is original, has more style in one pixel than most games do in an entire screencap, the characters are engaging and the writing okay. All these qualities pall the fifteenth time youattempt a level because, well, you had every trophy and were headed to the exit nd two guards just decided to both turn at once and box you in. Please, Turbulenz. This game could be a gem if only there were some kind of variable difficulty setting. All its qualities just make it all the mo...

Great soundtrack and aesthetic, but not recommended unless you like the blind panic style of gameplay this seems designed around. The teleporter cooldown being tied to the amount of loot collected implies the game will reward strategic thinking, but the random guard pathing means completion of missions is often down to pure luck. Similarly, pathing of your own character is unpredictable. Click on a destination that's not reachable via a straight line, and you can find yourself in view of a guard or security camera. Speaking of security cameras, these have a small "safe" area directly below them. However, the controls are just vague enough that it's easy to accidentally click on a pixel too far and end up within view of the camera. Other issues to note: - Quitting mid-mission means you have to redo it from the start, there's no warning of this (as of Dec 1st). This is particularly annoying for missions with three floors. - You have to complete all missions within a chapter in s...

The Marvelous Miss Take is a great game for the first few levels, fun and simple! However, on the second level of Chapter Two(Show Me The Monet), it got ridiculously frustrating for me. The Guards' sight range is incredibly vast, which is fine.. But not if there's three of them in a small gallery. Along with a camera. After passing that level (not before failing many, many times before.) within an hours worth of trying, I moved onto the next. This is when they added Dogs. The Dogs' sight range is reasonable, but the scent range is infuriating- Especially if you put them in a room with a Guard AND a camera. This is when I decided to stop the game. It was fun, very fun, for the first few levels. Then, it's simple stealing went from challengingly fun to unbelievably, frustratingly difficult. That, of course, is just my take on the game. Those who enjoy difficulty would probably love it! Thank you for reading~

The Marvellous Miss Take has the allure of a great Caper Story set in London, where you play as the beautiful Sophia Take, a thief reclaiming her aunt's art collection. You stealthfully try to take back your aunt's masterpieces from a number of galleries utilizing quick strategy, an array of high-tech gadgets and the special skills of your fellow bandits, Harry and Daisy. Each level provides a range of challenging security from guard dogs, to lasers, and infrared cameras, requiring masterful forethought in planning your heist. Each character has a number of achievements to unlock based on specific art pieces collected or how fast you finish the level. When it comes to trying to beat the clock, it can be frustrating at times because the random path of the guards almost seem like they know where you are, leaving you no choice but to run and hide or start again. Part of the fun with this game comes from figuring out the fastest way to loot an area without drawing too much attention. W...

I think that the most important thing in a game is how the gameplay works and entertains, but here I need to start talking about the game topic and how it is presented to the gamer. You are a woman - even if there are other secondary characters to play with during the game - you should inherit your aunt's art gallery works, but other art galleries take them from you and expose them, so you decide to steal them all to refill your gallery with what should be yours. I mean, you want to create an art gallery with stolen works, you can see how silly this idea is, but, well, the game want to set a nonsense spirit? I can be ok with it. I could, at least, but everything else keep being silly and unsophisticated. In the game, you have to select a rival art gallery and raid it to steal everything inside it, in freaking full day, [b]during opening hours[/b]. Every single gallery has two floors, you enter the first floor, empty it, take the elevetor to the second floor, empty it, and take the ex...

Classic MGS , Thief and Mark of Ninja have a baby! Her name is Miss Take! As fan of of stealth games for last 25 years, as fan of MGS and as owner of biggest russian MGS community i approve this game as better stealth and better MGS than official MGSV is. i dju rike it! This little indie game brings more stealth fun that epic and not so stealth disaster number V by Hideo Kojima himself. I really love it, it almost perfectly designed, i just wish this game to have hardcore options to disable vision cones, noise radius, scent clouds, and icons above heads, and options to reduce reaction delay and make wider and longer vision cons and noise radiuses for more chellenging, realistic and old school stealth expirience. Level editor and steam workshop integration would make this game endless fun, i hope devs will do that soon enough :-)
