Morsels

Great action, great environment art, great music, great character design, etc. Fun, clunky, and weird. This game is like a creature you found living under a rock in the forest. A creature that would have always existed there with or without anyone's knowledge. Doing its own thing. Eating whatever it eats. It has its own logic and culture that you can try to understand if you choose. If you're into that kind of experience, I would say buy this game. It's a rare treat in this climate of handholding media. I'm still figuring out the combat's rhythm, but that has been part of the fun too. Lastly: the music is GREAT. In a fuzzy, moldy, funky way. I played the demo for hours and have listened to the soundtrack on and off while driving ever since. I'm glad I finally purchased this beautiful, hairy booger. My sweet, sweet booger.

As the game currently stands, I cannot recommend it. It is fine, just fine, nothing out of the ordinary, but it is pretty much a meh game. I really really wanted to love it. It has the elements necessary to be a gem, and yet it falls short. The art is amazing as always from Toby Dixon, but the game just lacks that certain something that will make you wanna come back. There is no natural element of progress when it comes to the achievements, at least. Compare that to a game like Dead Estate, which made me wanna return many times to get every achievement. None felt too annoying to get. I just beat the game a couple minutes ago. May try to see if I can beat that "secret boss." You may wanna just go back to Atomic Crops if you want a more enjoyable and fun experience. (maybe future updates will make me change my mind who knows)
