Morsels

Game really is not good. I did only play for 2 hours its really hard to continue when the game is a visual mess. Half the time you die to something you can't even see. Star of Providence or Isaac is definitely the way to go if you need a good twinstick shooter to get your fix. This ain't it brotha.

Lovely game with gorgeous and acclaimed art by Toby Dixon, you might have seen in games like Nidhogg 2 & Atomicrops. There’s also lots to unpack in terms of gameplay progression: minigames, gated areas, and boss variations. Memorable good sides: 1. All the visuals are peak. You can tell they put in lots of passion as you notice all the tiny refined details (e.g. the camera screen at the top right corner inside the frog shop shows the correct respective image). 2. Every morsel feels unique with its own distinctive playstyle. Some seem stronger, and some weaker, but you may consider that as a part of inner balancing you have to handle during the run. 3. The gameplay doesn’t feel repetitive since you have a lot to cover: challenges, gated areas, mini games and areas’ design - all on various difficulties. 4. The game doesn’t hold your hand and you have to figure stuff on your own. This one is good to some extent as it kind of overlaps to a bad side too. 5. Overall doing a run feels good and gives you many laughs! Memorable meh/bad sides: 1. Morsels progression system feels weird. It starts from level 1 up until level 3 when the morsel retires, so you have only two full levels of gameplay with it. Level 2 morsel grows stronger and almost immediately goes to the brink of decline if you proceed with it since level 3 effectively retires it, depriving you of all the benefits. The edge case I came across: having had 1 morsel level 2+ growing towards level 3 with no option to switch to something else, and eventually it dies because of the exp it gets, resulting in game over - feels really weird and not fun. 2. Many items info is not descriptive enough or even straight up missing to figure out the value at the moment. It’s fun when it comes to solving the plot - delivering the ticket to a bus, or matching the key to a lock. But not being able to figure out the power up feels frustrating. Even immortal classics like Binding of Isaac eventually ended up adding the in-game item descriptions. 3. The downside of the detailed art is it can be hard to tell what’s going on at higher difficulties: bullets, minions, mobs, objects - all cluttering the screen and you get lost in that visual noise. 4. [i](My personal pain)[/i] Unkillable orbiting mobs that permanently annoys you and constantly get in the way when you move - that just feels straight up frustrating and not fun to me. All in all it’s a great game with its own charm you rarely come across these days. Wish all the best to the developers and lots of new creative ideas to evolve!

Das ist ein gutes Spiel. Es hat mega cool Vibe. Gut Soundtrack. Das Gameplay macht sehr viel Spaß. Ich empfehle diese Spiel allen, die Rogue-Like mögen. 10/10 Eng ver: The game is sick. One of the best roguelike games I ever played. The vibe, the soundtrack, gameplay - everything it very very good. I highly recommend it to everyone who likes Roguelike games! You can play there as a pink ♥♥♥♥, fly, sunflower and tons of other monsters. The variaty is cool, artstyle only makes things better ngl. So ye, 10/10 from me, for sure.

Voidigo has prepared me for this moment. This game is a gem. Should be sitting at very positive at the least. My only complaint is the directional aiming. 360 degree aiming would feel much better.

Very upsetting glitches that make it impossible to progress. I was in the 5th area and the cat demon head that guards the ladder was invincible. I couldn't kill it and it couldn't kill me. I walked around trying to see if I had missed something in order to get rid of it's invincibility but when I returned to the area the cat was gone and the ladder was stuck in it's un-extended position. I had a lot of fun playing the game and will try again but I can't recommend something with a bug this bad. First 3 hours of the game btw

Great little roguelite, MUSIC IS LITERALLY PEAK, gameplay just not for me unfortunately.

[h1] What matters most in reviews is sincerity and consistency. [/h1] Let me tell you, it's so hard for me to write a negative review for any game [spoiler](no matter how much I hate it)[/spoiler] as I almost always understand and moreover [u]believe that any game can be enjoyed by specific people and in specific contexts[/u]. Therefore, any negative review can push the game down and hurt its talented and artful developers. But as a curator, if I write [b]ONLY[/b] positive reviews, [b]I'll have no value whatsoever as a reviewer[/b], because people couldn't see what drives me as a human being and would't relate to me. Therefore, after much thought, I decided to face my moral struggle and write [i]my first negative review.[/i] Morsels is surely a game? It comes from the great creators of atomicrops, which I enjoy so much. I was hyped for this game and bought it almost immediately. Unfortunately, [u]it didn't live up to the hype, and it tells a lot, as I had almost no expectations[/u]. After only an hour of playing, I really felt demotivated to seek anything else in the game, as [b]the game loop doesn't feel satisfying at all for me[/b]. I like the classic art style; the sound design is great, and it could be debated that the game, in all its strengths and flaws, is unique. But [b]it just doesn't click[/b]. I really can't explain it fully. It feels like the game doesn't have "the sauce". It's just... kind of bland even with so many crazy choices. As always I advise to test this game out for yourself, but for me it's a miss. P.S - If you want to read more of my reviews [spoiler]https://store.steampowered.com/curator/46139049/ [/spoiler]

This game is severely underrated, yes it is confusing, yes it is hard, but dammmn it is so charming in every way. It is the kind of game you learn on the go, by trying, by making mistakes, by dying and by accepting that all of that is part of the adventure The art and the ost are unbelievably unique and gorgeous Morsels, my beloved, I love you, and I will give you all the love that people don't shower you with

Morsels is a creature-collecting action roguelite developed by Furcula and published by Annapurna Interactive that combines fast-paced combat, unusual world design, and monster-based gameplay into an experience built around experimentation and replayability. Rather than following the traditional structure of creature collection games focused on exploration and turn-based systems, Morsels takes a far stranger direction. It mixes frantic action with roguelite progression while building an identity driven by surreal ideas, unpredictable encounters, and constant adaptation. The game introduces players to an unusual protagonist: a small mouse struggling to survive in a harsh underground environment. That relatively simple beginning quickly becomes far stranger after encountering a mysterious force that grants transformative powers. What starts as an ordinary survival story develops into something far more bizarre, opening the door to strange creatures, dangerous enemies, and a larger conflict hidden beneath the surface. The setting embraces absurdity confidently while maintaining enough structure to keep players invested in discovering what comes next. One of the game's strongest features revolves around creature management. Instead of controlling a single character permanently, players gather powerful creatures called Morsels and actively switch between them during combat encounters. Every creature brings different strengths, abilities, and utility options that influence survival strategies. Some focus heavily on direct offense while others provide mobility advantages or defensive support. Success depends heavily on understanding when to rotate between creatures rather than relying entirely on a single approach. Combat moves quickly and rewards active playstyles. Enemy encounters frequently place pressure on positioning and reaction speed, forcing players to stay mobile while adapting to changing situations. Dodging attacks, understanding enemy patterns, and using creature abilities effectively become critical components of survival. The faster pacing helps maintain excitement while supporting the game's chaotic identity. The creature systems create impressive strategic depth beneath the colorful presentation. Different combinations create opportunities for experimentation, encouraging players to discover interactions between creatures and upgrades rather than following rigid progression paths. Strong combinations feel satisfying because they emerge naturally through experimentation rather than scripted progression systems. Roguelite mechanics strengthen long-term engagement significantly. Individual runs evolve differently depending on discovered upgrades, creature availability, and progression choices made throughout each attempt. Randomization introduces variety while preserving enough structure to reward mastery over time. Failure rarely feels wasted because repeated attempts gradually improve understanding while opening stronger possibilities for future runs. Replay value becomes one of Morsels' biggest strengths because no two attempts unfold exactly the same way. Different creature combinations, progression paths, and unexpected discoveries create variety naturally. The game consistently encourages experimentation rather than optimization alone, helping longer play sessions remain engaging. Presentation also contributes heavily to the overall experience. The visual style embraces strange creature designs, exaggerated animation, and environments filled with personality. Rather than aiming for realism, Morsels builds atmosphere through distinctive artistic choices that reinforce its unusual world. The visual identity feels memorable because it commits fully to its surreal ideas. Audio design strengthens that identity further. Music supports combat pacing effectively while quieter moments allow environmental atmosphere and strange worldbuilding details to stand out. Sound design contributes heavily to maintaining energy during combat-heavy moments while preserving the game's distinctive personality. The roguelite structure naturally creates a learning curve that may initially challenge some players. Certain systems require experimentation before their full potential becomes clear. Players unfamiliar with progression-heavy roguelites may occasionally feel overwhelmed by available mechanics during early attempts. However, repeated play gradually reveals stronger understanding while reinforcing long-term satisfaction. Balance between randomness and player agency works especially well. Randomized progression creates unpredictability, but player decisions consistently influence outcomes enough to prevent success from feeling purely dependent on luck. Strategic planning and mechanical execution remain equally valuable throughout progression. What ultimately makes Morsels stand out is how confidently it embraces unusual ideas without sacrificing mechanical depth. The creature systems remain meaningful. Combat remains consistently engaging. Roguelite progression strengthens replayability without overwhelming experimentation. The game succeeds because it avoids becoming predictable. Strange ideas continue appearing throughout progression while core mechanics remain strong enough to support repeated play. The combination creates an experience that feels inventive while remaining mechanically rewarding. Morsels delivers rewarding combat systems, creative creature mechanics, memorable presentation, and excellent replay value while successfully blending roguelite structure with fast-paced action and unusual world design. Rating: 7/10

Шедевральный визуал и звуковой дизайн игры! Могу сказать что это наверное один из самых необычных и по своему упоротых игровых проектов которых я когда либо видел за всю свою жизнь :0 На момент написания обзора наиграл всего 3 часа, и собираюсь и дальше наслаждаться им) Единственный минус - это отсутствие вариативности забегов, для рогалика как жанра это большой недостаток.. Но надеюсь разработчики будут поддерживать игру обновлениями контента и дополнениями >;3
