Gameplay reviews for Weable are mixed, with some players appreciating the solid mechanics and smooth flow, while others criticize the sluggish movement, frustrating hitbox issues, and lack of progress saving.

“Makes for very flowy gameplay, but not relaxing due to the challenge.”
“The mechanics are way too finicky; it was very frustrating.”
“The movement is sluggish, and the gameplay is entirely stop & go, which is not very interesting or fun.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players criticizing the low-quality visuals, lack of customization options, and an unappealing screen filter that detracts from the overall experience. While some appreciate the art style and find it consistent, the general consensus leans towards disappointment, especially for a PC game where higher visual standards are expected. Overall, the graphics are seen as underwhelming and not reflective of the quality typically associated with PC gaming.
“Pretty solid gameplay and nice graphic style.”
“Visuals are befitting and consistent.”
“It's got a pretty art style with a moderate soundtrack.”
“The lack of variety in level design, poorly balanced difficulty progression, uninspired boss encounters, underwhelming visuals, and forgettable soundtracks result in a mediocre gaming experience.”
“There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customize the graphics settings.”
“Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”

The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with some players expressing disappointment over the absence of a tutorial and narrative. While one user highlights a moral about perseverance and the unpredictability of life, the overall sentiment leans towards frustration, describing the experience as outdated and unfulfilling.
“The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“To be honest, this game is so boring. I'm so disappointed; there's no tutorial, no story, and it feels like playing a game on a browser from 13 years ago. Waste of time, I don't recommend it.”
