The most likely story is that Roblox’s old Weight Lifting Simulator / “legacy lifting simulator” games were content-deleted or removed after the creator’s account was banned and the original place was locked/private , so the original experience no longer showed up normally on Roblox. Reddit posts also suggest there were later clones or remakes, but they didn’t feel the same and many were eventually removed too.

What people on Reddit said

  • One Reddit thread says the game is “gone” and mentions the creator’s accounts being removed after involvement with unauthorized third-party Robux sales.
  • Another thread says Weight Lifting Simulator 3 had returned for a time, but later comments say it was shut down again.
  • A later post says the game had been content-deleted so many times that it seemed permanent.

Likely explanation

The cleanest reading from the Reddit discussion is:

  1. The original creator got banned or had their group/place locked.
  1. The original game became inaccessible or content-deleted.
  1. Fan-made clones and remakes appeared, but they were not exact replacements and often disappeared too.

Reddit vibe in one sentence

People mostly describe it as a nostalgic Roblox-era game that died from moderation/account issues, with a few comeback attempts that never fully stuck.

TL;DR

The “legacy lifting simulator” game likely disappeared because the original creator/group was banned or the place was locked, and later remakes didn’t last.
