Jon of RGN writes, "The Raven is a 1960′s crime thriller told in an episodic way with a focus on story telling. Legacy of a Master Thief takes place across Europe mainly while the infamous Raven is at large yet again to steal gems. Zellner the character you play as, can work his way up to begin his case against The Raven or The Ravens Heir."

Point-and-click adventure games have become something of an art form unto themselves. It’s a genre based on logical thought and delicately balanced pace, making them a go-to niche for the thinking gamer interested in a well-told story. But few of them have made a graceful transition from PC, the genre’s platform of origin, to consoles. The reason is obvious: keyboard-and-mouse control schemes are often too complex to map to a standard two-handed controller. This caveat is solidified in the PlayStation 3 version of The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief–but, fortunately, the game excels in other areas to overcome its control crutch.
Ryan from The Gamers Lounge writes "Back when our crew was at GoozerNation, I was able to review The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief for PC. As much as I was intrigued by the storyline and overarching character development, I really wasn't able to play through it at all. I've never been a PC gamer, and have never put much cash into my system. The entire game chugged, often taking fifteen seconds for a single character to load a single line. In a dialog based video game, this was a lesson in tedium. What I got to play I enjoyed. Now, along comes a home console release, perfect for my style of play. I love consoles, because even if they may not be as powerful as your average everyday computer, it simply works. You buy a game, plug it in, and if anything goes wrong, it's the developer's fault."
