Sly Cooper


Another of the video games that the kids and I enjoy playing together. Sly Cooper: Band of Thieves.

Sly is a raccoon and and his thieving buddies are a hippo (Murray) and a turtle (Bentley). They are Robin Hood-esque figures, stealing from bad guys for profit and to save the world.

The game has a distinctive art style and is made up of numerous missions that follow a straight-forward story line: find the bad guy, scope out his operations, plan a heist and steal the goods without getting caught. Sly is the sneaker, Murray is the brawler and Bentley is the gadgeteer.

We haven't finished the game yet, but we're enjoying it enough that I will probably buy Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves.
