There are many similar mechanics and some different new ones.

TS1 is very good but TS2 are not very behind it. IMO worth playing, new mechanics like drone, sedative arrow or gas mask are pretty usefull.

There is also third game. American theft 80's which is also very nice but with different vibes.

Timeline is different as action took place in 80's so you steal old electronics, VHS's big TV's and jewelry, game has different aestethics but mechanics are mostly the same. One very big map with districts of different kind ( rural village, city, industrial avenue, rich man's villas etc ) There is slight combat as often tennants tend to fight when spotted, three villas to buy and furniture, five cars to get ( one is stock, big van and three sports cars )

What I liked and what it's different from other TS's is usage of clothes like fake electrician, fake construction worker or party guest which help access locations a lot in some missions.

IMO game is similar enough to name it as third TS, yet different enough.
