Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (2002)

This game deals with the story behind Clockwerk and his ultimate demise due to Sly and his band of thieves.
 
While Sly and his friends were growing up, Clockwerk and his cohorts "The Fiendish Five" split the pages of the Thievius Raccoonus between themselves and used it's secrets for their own personal gain. Once Sly became a full fledged thief, he began to learn about Clockwerk and he and his pals decided to take down his arch-nemesis once and for all and save his family's name. 

Sly then tracked down each individual member of the "Fiendish Five" and reclaimed each page of the Thievius Raccoonus. After that, he traced Clockwerk back to his hideout to finally get revenge for his family's death.
 
With all the pages to the Thievius Raccoonus returned to it's rightful place, Sly returned to low-scale thievery with Bentley and Murray without worry of the ancient Clockwerk of ever returning.
