Weapon Hacker offers a unique and enjoyable weapon customization system that allows players to create powerful and varied sci-fi weaponry.
The game features a fun rogue-lite Metroidvania experience with a good amount of replay value, thanks to its procedurally generated levels and hidden challenges.
The controls are tight and responsive, making for a solid gameplay experience that is both challenging and rewarding.

The game suffers from a lack of weapon variety and boss encounters, leading to repetitive gameplay during multiple runs.
Some players may find the controls awkward, especially when using a keyboard, and the absence of a tutorial can make it difficult to grasp the mechanics.
The game feels short and may not justify its price for some, especially if the developer does not continue to add content and improvements.
