Sable Reviews

A simple, exploration-focused game with immaculate vibes. Hoverbiking your way across the deserts, meeting neat folks and finding all kinds of cool things is just a great time.

Good game. Exploration, platforming, atmosphere, music are great, striking art style. Ran well on Steam Deck and Linux, though it's way better on a huge ultra wide than on Deck. I think the game is mechanically too shallow and requires its visuals on a big screen to function. Which it then does pretty well. They should have done way, way more with the lore / background setting.

This is a very good exploration game, super soothing and with a gorgeous art design. You can climb most things.

Awesome soundtrack, fun characters, interesting lore, an all around super fun game. Honestly one of my favorites at time of writing!

I enjoyed my time with "Sable" greatly. It's more of an art piece than anything else. If you want a full-tilt ~*video game*~, there's plenty to collect and find and a great many boxes to tick -- but, in my opinion, you shouldn't feel obligated to do any of that unless you want to, unless you feel like it, unless it brings you joy. Lots of things in life bear the mantra of "you get out of it what you put it" and "Sable" represents that greatly. One part game, one party coming-of-age meditation, one part personality test. It's pretty, it's thoughtful, the Japanese Breakfast soundtrack rules, and when your Gliding is done you can safely return to the real world, knowing this other one will continue on without you. It's a good feeling.

Sable is a modern spiritual journey that helps mimic the jumping off point from childhood to adulthood. The echoes of Sable will follow you for weeks if you're going through something transformative. The enchanting music of Japanese Breakfast sometimes just bubbles to the surface in my consciousness. I hope someday Sable is fully recognized for what it can do for people.

The art, the music, the story. This game could be a very quick play through but I could not imagine doing anything but taking my time with this game. I explored everywhere I was able and ended up breaking some things here and there with my curiosity but even that was exploration as well. I was interested the whole time playing and I loved every bit of it. The calming nature and wisdom of this game will stick with me as I go through life.

This is a beautiful and great exploration indie game, however the immersion get's really hampered by constant stuttering and a lot of consistent bugs that kept occurring, I will say that it's worth it to try but be aware it's not a very polished experience.

My favorite game to date and i'm only 5 hours in. Incredibly beautiful, deeply moving. The writing, worldbuilding, art, characters, everything. The platforming can be clunky at times but it makes the views from the top even more rewarding. Highly recommend.

The art, the music, the atmosphere—everything is simply beautiful.
