    At this point in time, the game is a mess.
    Laggy, unstable and broken.
    The Player Avatar stutters and jitters when they come in contact with moving parts of the stage or stage traps. The game lags like hell. Being hit gives only very lackluster feedback, which in combination with the lag makes it impossible to react appropriately against enemies from the flanks or the side.

    The weapons feel weak and dodgy and the game has on overall amateurish feel to it.
    It just seems cobbled together, unfinished more akin to an early access game.

    While the Idea is nice and the game has a certain charm, the flaws are just to much for me.
    Can't recommend.    … Expand

    Game is **** even after the recent update on 7-30-19.. guns are horribly unbalanced, hit boxes are crap, you glitch out or just plain freeze in place every other 2-3mins, the jet pack is super choppy and cuts frame rate in half when in use. Also it's dead as hell... keep running into the same 2 guys in lobby, then it's just you and an ai crap fest save you're money their are 1million xGame is **** even after the recent update on 7-30-19.. guns are horribly unbalanced, hit boxes are crap, you glitch out or just plain freeze in place every other 2-3mins, the jet pack is super choppy and cuts frame rate in half when in use.

    A broken game that really isn't worth your time, especially when Splatoon already does all of this extraordinarily better. [Issue #36 – November/December 2018, p. 19]

    Morphies Law stands out for its concept which is more than worthy of the player's attention. Featuring a fun and original gameplay and free of any microtransactions, Morphies Law brings forth an enjoyable multiplayer experience for up to eight players. Where it fails to impress is on the amount of content (or lack thereof) and limitations on its multiplayer component, which harm the game's long term potential.

    There’s a lot of promise to Morphies Law, but there’s also a lot of frustration for the ways it fails to meet this promise. As you play it, you find yourself noticing more and more things that feel like they should be there to help you enjoy what the developer came up with, but it’s not there, so it winds up feeling empty, lifeless, and unclear as to what you’re doing. A cool idea will get you partway there, but without the right follow-through, it just winds up being a game you’re not interested in playing much longer.
